DAST

DAST tests a running application from the outside, the way an attacker would. A proof-based DAST confirms each issue with a real, safe exploit - a differential SQLi response, a DOM-XSS execution - rather than inferring it from a pattern.

How apPosture treats it

apPosture is a self-hosted, proof-based ASPM platform: it confirms findings with real, safe exploits, correlates every source into one risk-weighted posture, and runs entirely inside your infrastructure with a local LLM. See the proof methodology or the platform.
