Definition of Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)
Dynamic application security testing (DAST) is a form of black-box security testing that checks for security problems while an application is in use by simulating external threats. By checking for faults and flaws in the application's exposed interfaces, it seeks to enter the system from the outside. Finding runtime issues is one of the main advantages of dynamic application security testing (DAST). Moreover, a user can identify server setup and security problems and vulnerabilities that become apparent only once a known user signs in with the help of DAST.

With the increasing incidence of data breaches across the globe, it has become essential to opt for web and mobile application security testing solutions to reduce the threat of attackers. Therefore, web and mobile applications can be tested with the help of three types of security tests such as DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing), IAST (Interactive Application Security Testing), and SAST (Static Application Security Testing), to identify security flaws that can expose an application to attack. With the increasing government support for research and development, the automated version of security testing will be able to provide better services to customers through advanced features. For, instance, according to the National Science Board, the federal and non-federal government and other non-profit expenditures on research and development accounted for USD 85.6 billion in 2018.
