week 6

 In order to prevent common web-based attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS), Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), and SQL injections, organizations need the right tools to detect and prevent these issues before code goes to production. Both Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) and Static application security testing (SAST) tools are often integrated into an organization’s CI/CD pipeline to scan for vulnerabilities. For this week’s assignment, discuss the differences between DAST and SAST. Include any pros and cons for each type, how organizations can benefit, examples of what issues can be found, and any specific tools in your response. Your assignment should be 2-3 pages in length, with two or more references in APA Format cited in your response.
