Original Post: Scaling DevSecOps with Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)
The article discusses the importance of Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) within modern DevSecOps practices, particularly in the context of AI-driven software development. DAST helps simulate real-world attacks to identify security vulnerabilities in running applications. Key best practices for leveraging DAST include:
- Seamless Integration into CI/CD Pipelines: Incorporating DAST scans into CI/CD pipelines to detect vulnerabilities early.
- Establish Clear Security Guidelines: Setting clear security policies to streamline testing and focus on impactful vulnerabilities.
- Empower with Contextual Remediation Guidance: Providing developers with actionable, real-time remediation guidance to resolve issues quickly.
- Automate the Management of Vulnerabilities: Using tools to automate vulnerability management, ensuring prompt and efficient remediation.
- Keep Track of Your Progress: Setting up metrics to monitor and improve DevSecOps performance.
The article encourages using Veracode’s DAST tools and offers a 14-day free trial to experience the benefits firsthand.
