Static code analysis and dynamic application security tools are two different approaches to security testing, with each playing a crucial role in identifying and addressing vulnerabilities in software applications. Scott Moore talks to Ron Foster of Saltworks Security about this and more.
Static Code Analysis Insights
🕵 “It’s better if I have the source code already than to generate your code and see if there’s vulnerabilities in that.”
💡 Testing the application as deployed on a web server can uncover unexpected issues that may not be related to the app itself, highlighting the importance of comprehensive security testing.
⚖ Management plays a key role in security testing by evaluating the business risk associated with identified vulnerabilities and deciding whether to allocate resources for their resolution.
