Our DAST/SAST Evaluation & Implementation service focuses on helping organizations choose and deploy the right application security tools tailored to their unique environments. Since every organization differs in nature, technology stack, architecture, philosophy, and processes a one-size-fits-all solution doesn’t work. We conduct a comprehensive evaluation of multiple SAST and DAST tools to identify the most effective fit based on use cases, scalability needs, and integration requirements. This evaluation is vendor independent and based on prior experiences of multiple industry leading products which helps us achieve identification of the perfect product fit for the need of the organization. Our experts then help with the end-to-end implementation, including tool setup, customization, configuration, and integration with CI/CD pipelines for seamless automation. We ensure the tools are not only properly selected but also optimally executed and fine-tuned to deliver high accuracy, efficiency, and actionable insights—because a security tool is only as powerful as the way it’s implemented.
