Testing SAST, DAST, and SCA

Traditional testing checks for functionality and performance, but security testing takes it a step further. By looking at both the code and how the application behaves, as well as the components used, we can find and fix potential vulnerabilities. This helps protect against attacks and shows customers that we take their security seriously.

Why testing is important

Testing is more than a checkbox in the development process. It’s a step to ensure the safety and reliability of your software. Testing is the quality assurance process that catches errors and flaws before they end up in a release.

Regular testing is about proving to your customers and partners that you take their security seriously. As we’ll discuss later in this section, reports from testing can be used to create security compliance artifacts for pre-sales requirements and/or regulatory requirements.
