Static Application Security Testing (SAST)

What is Static Application Security Testing (SAST)?

A type of application testing that analyzes the source code of an application for vulnerabilities without executing the program. SAST tools scan code at its different stages of development to pinpoint possible weaknesses early in the lifecycle, enabling developers to address issues before the application is deployed.
