Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is an advanced testing method that tests the production environment and analyzes application security at runtime. This type of black box testing identifies real-world vulnerabilities externally without much need for insights into the product provenance of any single component. By simulating real-world attacks in your system, DAST identifies critical security gaps that other vulnerability assessments and static methods might miss.

Have you heard about SOPS? If you have already been in a situation where you needed to share sensitive information with your teammates, this is for you. Today, let's have a look at how it works and how to use it with various key management services such as AWS KMS and HashiCorp Vault.
