How SAST and Mayhem Work Together for Comprehensive Application Security Testing

ForAllSecure

Software application vulnerabilities fall into three different risk categories : Known Known : Known Knowns are identifiable risks that are known to lead to compromise. Static Application Security Testing (SAST), or static analysis tools uncover bugs by analyzing source code. SAST is best used during the SDLC development phase.

Challenging ROI Myths Of Static Application Security Testing (SAST)

ForAllSecure

There are several benefits for using Static Analysis Security Testing (SAST) for your software security. However, I can think of at least six challenges to this form of analysis. SAST does not use the actual executable/binary for analysis; it typically uses a representation of your program. Enter Fuzzing.
