DAST vs RASP: Why proactive detection beats reactive defense alone
Dynamic application security testing (DAST) and runtime application self-protection (RASP) address risk at different stages: DAST proactively finds and validates exploitable vulnerabilities before release, while RASP mitigates attacks in production. A DAST-first approach provides broad, verified coverage and supports root-cause fixes, with RASP adding complementary runtime resilience.
