What is DAST?
DAST stands for Dynamic Application Security Testing. It is a type of security testing that analyzes an application while it is running. DAST tools simulate real-world attacks to identify vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and broken authentication. Unlike static analysis (SAST), DAST doesn't examine the source code; instead, it interacts with the application through its interfaces (e.g., HTTP) to find security flaws.
What other technologies are related to DAST?
DAST Competitor Technologies
SAST
Static Application Security Testing (SAST) analyzes source code for vulnerabilities, whereas DAST analyzes running applications. They address similar security goals but through different methods.
MAST
Mobile Application Security Testing (MAST) tools can perform static and dynamic analysis of mobile applications. DAST is a component of MAST.
Checkmarx
Checkmarx provides SAST, SCA and DAST solutions. It is primarily a competitor when its SAST solution is compared, but also provides a DAST solution.
Veracode
Veracode provides SAST, DAST, and SCA solutions. Thus it is a competitor to DAST.
HCL AppScan
HCL AppScan offers DAST capabilities, making it a direct competitor to other DAST tools.

DAST Complementary Technologies
SCA
Software Composition Analysis (SCA) identifies open source components in use and their known vulnerabilities. DAST can detect vulnerabilities arising from the use of these components during runtime.
IAST
Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST) combines elements of SAST and DAST, providing real-time feedback during testing. IAST enhances DAST by providing more insight into code behavior.
RASP
Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) protects applications from attacks at runtime. DAST identifies vulnerabilities that RASP can then protect against.
