Discover the world of Static Application Security Testing (SAST) in this concise video. SAST, which stands for Static Application Security Testing, is an essential security tool that examines your source code for potential vulnerabilities. Unlike dynamic tools, SAST operates solely on your code, making it a static analysis tool.

Learn about its critical role in identifying significant security issues like injection and cross-site scripting, but also its limitations, such as lacking context and language/framework dependencies. We'll explain why SAST can sometimes produce false positives and why it's like having a security expert review your code, albeit with limited understanding of your application's functionality. Join us to gain a clear understanding of SAST's place in the world of application security.
