Detect Web Application Vulnerabilities Before They’re Exploited
Modern web applications face constant threats from evolving vulnerabilities. Continuous Dynamic Analysis (DAST) helps you proactively uncover security weaknesses in running applications — before attackers do — without disrupting development or deployment.
Overview
Continuous Dynamic Analysis (DAST): Continuous, Automated Security Testing for Running Applications
Continuous Dynamic Analysis is a dynamic application security testing (DAST) solution by Synopsys that scans your live web applications and APIs for vulnerabilities — without requiring access to source code. It identifies security flaws in running applications during development, testing, and production, helping security and DevOps teams catch risks before they’re exploited.
Unlike static analysis tools that inspect source code, DAST examines applications in their runtime environment, simulating real attack techniques to uncover issues like authentication flaws, misconfigurations, injection vulnerabilities, and more.
Continuous Dynamic integrates smoothly into CI/CD pipelines, providing automated, continuous security assessments throughout your SDLC.
Phase Pacific supports organisations in deploying, integrating, and optimising Continuous Dynamic to improve application security posture without slowing delivery.
