DAST

Dynamic Application
Security Testing

Test your live web applications and APIs the way an attacker would. Offensive360 DAST crawls your application with a headless browser, discovers endpoints, runs more than 40 active exploit checks and 19 passive analyzers — injection, authentication, access control, and API flaws — and confirms every finding with the real request and response.

What Offensive360 DAST tests for

Real exploit attempts against your running application — 40+ active checks and 19 passive analyzers, not just header checks.

Critical

Injection Attacks

SQL (error, boolean and time-based), OS command, LDAP, XPath, NoSQL, expression-language, server-side template and SSI injection — real payloads against your endpoints, not signature matching.

High

Cross-Site Scripting

Reflected, stored, DOM-based and client-side template injection, plus blind XSS confirmed out-of-band when the payload fires somewhere you cannot see.

Critical

Authentication & Sessions

Broken authentication, session fixation, JWT misconfiguration and replay, password-reset poisoning, default credentials, and missing login rate limiting.

High

Access Control

IDOR / broken object-level authorization (BOLA), missing function-level authorization (BFLA), and mass assignment tested against an 18-field dictionary of privileged attributes in form and JSON bodies.

Critical

Server-Side Request & Parsing

SSRF, XXE, insecure deserialization (Java, PHP, .NET, Python), path traversal and unrestricted file upload — blind cases confirmed through a self-hosted OAST callback service.

High

Protocol & Infrastructure

HTTP request smuggling, web cache poisoning, host-header, CRLF and email-header injection, HTTP parameter pollution, prototype pollution, open redirects, and weak TLS.

Medium

Server Misconfiguration

Exposed admin panels, files and source code, directory listing, verbose errors, missing security headers, CORS, cookie flags, exposed source maps, and dangling-DNS subdomain takeover.

High

API Security

REST and GraphQL: introspection exposure, BOLA, mass assignment, missing resource-consumption limits, and discovery of exposed API specifications and inventory.

High

Known CVEs & Components

Technology fingerprinting with known-CVE matching for WordPress, Joomla and Drupal and for frameworks such as Django, Laravel, Next.js, Rails, Spring and Struts, plus vulnerable or outdated client-side components.

How the scan works

01

Target

Enter your application URL. Optionally provide credentials for deeper testing behind login pages, or start from assets discovered by ASM.

02

Crawl

A headless-Chromium crawler renders your application — including JavaScript-heavy single-page apps — and discovers pages, forms, API calls, and interactive elements.

03

Attack

Every discovered endpoint is tested with real exploit payloads from 40+ active checks, tuned to the technology stack the fingerprinter detects.

04

Prove & Report

Validators re-check each finding, and it is reported with request/response evidence, severity, CWE and OWASP mapping, and remediation steps.

Authenticated scanning

Most of your application's attack surface is behind a login page. Offensive360 DAST supports authenticated scanning — it logs in as a real user and tests all the pages, APIs, and workflows that anonymous scanners can't reach.

  • Form-based authentication
  • Token and cookie-based session management
  • Multi-step login flows
  • Role-based testing across different user privilege levels
  • Authenticated-versus-anonymous access-control checks on every endpoint

Scan coverage comparison

Without auth ~20% of attack surface
With auth ~90% of attack surface
ZERO FALSE-POSITIVE DISCIPLINE

Proof, not probability

A scanner that cries wolf gets ignored. Every Offensive360 DAST finding has to earn its place.

Evidence with every finding

A finding is confirmed only when a real payload demonstrably works. You get the exact request that was sent and the response that came back — reproducible by your own team.

Validators and AI-assisted triage

Post-scan validators re-test each finding before it is reported, and an AI-assisted triage pass flags anything that still looks like a false positive so reviewers focus on real risk.

Release gate on clean targets

Every engine release must produce zero findings against clean control applications before it ships. Header and clickjacking checks only fire on responses the engine actually captured.

Safe mode is on by default: validation payloads are non-destructive, and denial-of-service techniques are force-disabled across every mode.

AI APPLICATION SECURITY

Test your AI & LLM applications

Chatbots, LLM-backed APIs, and RAG pipelines are now part of your attack surface — and they fail in ways traditional scanners never look for. Offensive360 DAST tests AI-powered applications against the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications (2025), with the same evidence-backed reporting as every other finding.

  • Prompt injection and jailbreaks — the #1 LLM application risk
  • System prompt leakage and sensitive information disclosure
  • Improper output handling behind LLM responses
  • Excessive agency in tool-using agents and RAG data exposure

Why AI apps need dynamic testing

An LLM feature behaves differently on every request — its vulnerabilities live in how the running system handles adversarial input, not in a single line of code. That makes dynamic, payload-driven testing the right tool: we probe your live AI endpoints with real injection and leakage attacks and show you the exact transcript when one lands.

Combined with SAST for your AI-generated code and the engagement modes below, you get AI security coverage from the code your copilots write to the AI features you ship.

Reports, dashboards & integrations

Findings land where your teams already work. Reports are built for the audience that reads them, and the dashboard tells you at a glance whether risk is coming from your code or from what you expose.

  • Four report templates and five export formats, with severity filtering
  • Human-readable finding types, CWE and OWASP mapping, remediation steps
  • Dashboard separates the Scan Risk Index (findings-weighted) from External Exposure Risk (ASM)
  • Syslog forwarding to SIEM platforms — validated end to end with FortiSIEM
  • REST API for pipelines and automation; SAST and DAST correlated in one console

Deploy on your terms

DAST ships inside the same virtual appliance as SAST, MAST and ASM — an OVA for your data center or an Azure VHD image for your own cloud tenant — and runs fully offline in air-gapped networks. Targets, findings and evidence never leave your environment.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between DAST and SAST?

SAST (Static Application Security Testing) analyzes your source code without running it — it finds vulnerabilities early, at the code level. DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) tests your running application from the outside, the way a real attacker would, so it finds runtime issues like server misconfigurations, authentication flaws, and exploitable injection points that only appear in a live environment. Offensive360 includes both in one platform, so you cover code and runtime without buying two tools.

What vulnerabilities does Offensive360 DAST test for?

The engine runs more than 40 active exploit checks and 19 passive analyzers on every scan. Active checks cover SQL injection (error, boolean and time-based), reflected, stored, DOM-based and blind XSS, SSRF, XXE, OS command injection, path traversal, server-side and client-side template injection, SSI, LDAP, XPath, NoSQL and expression-language injection, CRLF and email-header injection, host-header injection, HTTP parameter pollution, prototype pollution, insecure deserialization, HTTP request smuggling, web cache poisoning, CSRF, JWT misconfiguration and replay, session fixation, unrestricted file upload, exposed files and source code, default credentials, password-reset poisoning, open redirects, weak TLS, GraphQL introspection, IDOR/BOLA, missing function-level authorization (BFLA), mass assignment, and API inventory and resource-consumption weaknesses. Passive analyzers cover CORS, security headers, cookie flags, clickjacking, secrets in responses and URLs, version disclosure, cache control, subdomain takeover, anti-CSRF tokens, error leakage, directory listing, mixed content, exposed source maps, session-token entropy, missing login rate limiting, form security, and vulnerable or outdated components. Fingerprint packs add known-CVE matching for WordPress, Joomla, Drupal and common frameworks.

Does DAST work behind login pages?

Yes. Offensive360 DAST supports authenticated scanning: form-based login, token and cookie sessions, multi-step login flows, and role-based testing across privilege levels. Since most of an application’s attack surface sits behind authentication, this typically raises coverage from roughly 20% to 90% of the application.

Can Offensive360 DAST test single-page applications and GraphQL APIs?

Yes. A headless-Chromium crawler renders JavaScript-heavy single-page applications to discover the routes, forms and API calls a plain HTTP spider never sees. GraphQL endpoints are checked for introspection exposure, and both REST and GraphQL APIs are tested for injection, broken object-level authorization, mass assignment and missing resource-consumption controls. Blind and out-of-band vulnerabilities — SSRF, XXE, blind XSS — are confirmed through a self-hosted out-of-band (OAST) callback service, so no third-party collaborator server is involved.

Can Offensive360 DAST test AI and LLM-powered applications?

Yes. Applications with chatbots, LLM-backed APIs, or RAG features have a new attack surface that traditional scanners miss. Offensive360 tests AI-powered applications against the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications (2025) — prompt injection (the #1 LLM risk), jailbreaks, system prompt leakage, improper output handling, and sensitive information disclosure — alongside the classic web and API vulnerability classes.

Are DAST findings validated, or will I get false positives?

Findings are validated with real exploit payloads and reported with the request/response evidence that proves them — you see exactly what was sent and what came back. Post-scan validators re-check every finding, an AI-assisted triage pass flags anything that looks like a false positive, and every engine release must produce zero findings against clean control applications before it ships. Safe mode is on by default, so validation never damages the target.

How does DAST relate to the AI Pentester, Autonomous Red Teaming, and ASM?

They share one engine. A DAST scan is the point-in-time, deterministic test of a target. The AI Pentester runs a full, authorization-gated engagement on top of it, with human approval before exploitation. Autonomous Red Teaming runs continuously inside an enforced scope guard and proves exploitability with non-destructive proof-of-exploit. Attack Surface Management (ASM) discovers the external assets — subdomains, services, certificates, leaked credentials — that can then be handed to any of the three for authorized testing. All of it lives in one dashboard, which separates the findings-weighted Scan Risk Index from the ASM-derived External Exposure Risk.

Can Offensive360 DAST run on-premise or air-gapped?

Yes. DAST ships inside the same virtual appliance as SAST, MAST and ASM — an OVA for your data center or an Azure VHD image for your own cloud tenant — and runs fully offline in air-gapped networks. Targets, findings and evidence never leave your environment.
