HashGo ยท Dynamic application security testing

HashGo DAST In development

Test the application that is actually running.

HashGo DAST probes your live web applications and APIs from the outside, signs in like a real user, and shows the request and response behind every finding.

In development. This page describes what we are building. Features may change before release.

Capabilities

What DAST will do.

Outside-in testing of live web apps and APIs, signed-in paths included, with the request behind every finding.

01

Outside-in testing

See the application the way an attacker does.

  • Crawls web and single-page applications
  • Tests REST and GraphQL APIs from their specifications
  • Signed-in scanning with recorded login flows
02

Proof, not guesses

Every finding comes with what was sent and what came back.

  • Request and response for each finding
  • Replay to confirm a fix
  • Severity based on real exposure
03

Safe to run

Controls that keep testing inside the lines you draw.

  • Rate limits and scan windows
  • Scope rules for hosts and paths
  • Separate staging and production profiles

How it works

Four steps, start to finish.

01

Add an application

Enter the URL or API specification and the login flow.

02

Set the scope

Choose hosts, paths, rate limits and a scan window.

03

Scan

The scanner crawls and tests the running application.

04

Confirm and fix

Review the evidence, fix, then replay to verify.

Coverage

  • Single-page apps
  • Login flows

SAST and DAST

Two views of the same risk.

HashGo SAST reads the code. HashGo DAST tests what is deployed. Most teams need both.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Something else? Ask the team.

What is DAST?

Dynamic application security testing checks a running application from the outside by sending requests and studying the responses, the same way an attacker would.

What kinds of issues will it find?

Authentication and session weaknesses, injection that only shows at runtime, missing security headers, exposed debug endpoints and server misconfiguration.

Is it safe to run against production?

Scans are designed to run with rate limits, scope rules and scan windows. Most teams start on staging and then schedule production scans.

Should I use DAST and SAST together?

Yes. SAST catches flaws in the code early, and DAST confirms how the deployed application behaves.

When will it be available?

It is in development. Write to us for early access.
