Find What’s Exploitable In Your Running Applications.
Most DAST tools generate high volumes of alerts without validating real-world impact, leaving teams unsure what truly matters.
TrollEye’s Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) continuously tests live applications, validates which runtime vulnerabilities are actually exploitable, and carries every confirmed exposure into your Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) program, so developers fix root causes instead of chasing scanner noise.
DAST Should Prove Runtime Risk, Not Just Generate Alerts.
Our Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) approach focuses on continuous, runtime-driven discovery and validation of web application vulnerabilities in live environments.
Rather than relying solely on static scans or pre-production assumptions, we continuously test applications in runtime conditions to confirm how they actually behave under attack, so vulnerabilities are not just detected, but confirmed in context, prioritized by real impact, and fixed at the root.
Proactive Runtime Coverage
Continuously test live applications to uncover exploitable flaws in authentication, session handling, input validation, and business logic before attackers find them.
Risk-Validated Findings
Every issue is confirmed in a runtime context to demonstrate true impact, reducing noise and prioritizing the vulnerabilities that materially increase application risk.
Faster Remediation
Findings are delivered with precise reproduction details and risk context, enabling developers to fix issues efficiently and prevent recurrence across future releases.
Identify Vulnerabilities In Live Application Behavior.
Traditional testing often misses how applications behave once deployed. Our DAST continuously tests running applications in staging and production-like environments to uncover exploitable weaknesses in authentication flows, session management, APIs, input handling, and business logic.
Test what’s actually deployedSurface the vulnerabilities that exist in running code, not just what static analysis predicts.
Cover authenticated workflowsExercise login flows, user roles, sessions, and APIs the way real users and attackers do.
Test where applications liveRuntime testing runs in staging and production-like environments, before and after release.
Confirm Which Findings Materially Increase Risk.
Not every alert increases risk. Every DAST finding is validated in context to demonstrate real exploitability, showing how vulnerabilities can be abused within application logic, user roles, and connected systems. This reduces noise, eliminates false positives, and keeps remediation focused on the issues that meaningfully reduce exposure.
Prioritize by exploitabilityRank findings by exploitability, exposure, and business impact instead of scanner severity alone.
Prove reachabilityShow which runtime vulnerabilities are actually exploitable and reachable from an attacker’s position.
Eliminate false positivesSecurity engineers review results before they ever reach a developer’s queue.
Deliver Findings Developers Can Act On Immediately.
Findings are clearly documented with reproduction steps, payload examples, risk explanation, and remediation guidance aligned to your development workflow. This shortens fix cycles, improves collaboration between security and engineering, and turns testing into a structured, repeatable improvement process rather than a periodic audit exercise.
Reproduction steps and payloadsDevelopers see exactly how an issue was triggered and can confirm it themselves.
Add exploitability contextShow how an issue can actually be used, not just that it exists.
Clear remediation guidanceFix guidance aligned to your frameworks, languages, and development workflows.
Strengthen Security With Every Deployment.
DAST is not a one-time scan. Our continuous testing model validates new releases, configuration changes, and infrastructure updates as they occur, and routes confirmed findings into GitHub, Azure DevOps, and Jira, so security posture improves alongside development velocity.
Test every releaseNew releases and configuration changes are tested as they ship, not months later.

A DAST Process Focused On Mobilization.
Our Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is built to support continuous exposure management by helping teams not only identify runtime risk, but also address the root causes that lead to repeat vulnerabilities across releases.
Instead of treating scanning as a standalone activity, we deliver DAST as a program: continuous runtime testing, validation of what’s actually exploitable, a centralized platform for mobilizing remediation, and an ongoing partnership focused on shipping secure releases.
Map Every Running Application, API, And Workflow.
We begin by identifying the web applications, APIs, and authenticated workflows that matter most, then continuously test them at runtime in staging and production-like environments to uncover exploitable weaknesses in authentication, session management, input handling, and business logic.
- Web application and API inventory
- Authenticated testing across user roles and sessions
- Continuous runtime testing in live environments
Prove Which Vulnerabilities Are Actually Exploitable.
Every finding is validated in a runtime context to prove it is exploitable and reachable, then enriched with threat context and business impact. Instead of ranking issues on scanner severity alone, teams see which vulnerabilities attackers would realistically abuse first.
- Threat context, exploitability, and business impact
- Exploitability confirmed in runtime context
- False positives removed before they reach developers
Mobilize Developers To Fix Root Causes Faster.
Validated findings are delivered with reproduction steps, payload examples, and remediation guidance, then routed into Jira, GitHub, and Azure DevOps. Issues are assigned to the teams that own them, tracked centrally through our platform, and supported by our team until they are eliminated, mitigated, or accepted.
- Developer-ready findings routed to owners
- Centralized tracking through the platform
- Hands-on support until findings are eliminated, mitigated, or accepted
Continuously Confirm That Fixes Are Effective.
As fixes ship, we retest remediated findings and keep testing new releases, configuration changes, and infrastructure updates to confirm issues stay resolved and new runtime vulnerabilities haven’t been introduced.
- Retests on remediated findings
- Every new release tested as it ships
- A continuous feedback loop into the next cycle
Build A Stronger Security Program With Every Cycle.
Each testing cycle feeds long-term improvement. We analyze vulnerability trends, remediation performance, and recurring root causes across releases, helping teams reduce high and critical findings and ship with confidence.
- Vulnerability trend and remediation performance analysis
- Recurring root causes identified and addressed
- Fewer recurring issues release over release
Runtime Validation For Your Application Attack Surface.
Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is a core component of our Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) solution for the application domain. By continuously testing running applications and validating which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable, DAST shows where application exposure presents real risk.
Applications are one domain of your attack surface, alongside network, cloud, and identity. DAST powers the Discovery and Validation stages for running applications, while Scoping, Prioritization, and Mobilization run across your entire attack surface in the same TrollEye platform.
Scoping
Define the applications, APIs, environments, and authenticated workflows that matter most to the business, and the risk each represents.
Explore Scoping →Discovery
Continuously test running applications to surface runtime vulnerabilities in authentication, session handling, APIs, input validation, and business logic.
Explore Discovery →Prioritization
Rank application findings by exploitability, exposure, and business impact, in context with cloud, identity, and operational risk.
Explore Prioritization →Validation
Prove which runtime vulnerabilities are actually exploitable and reachable by confirming each finding in context, with PTaaS available for complex, multi-stage attack paths.
Explore Validation →Mobilization
Route validated DAST findings to the developers who own them through Jira and existing pipelines, then retest so root causes don’t recur.
Explore Mobilization →Application Exposures Don’t Exist In Isolation.
Within our CTEM packages, DAST findings are correlated with code, dependency, cloud, identity, and operational risk, helping security and engineering teams focus on the remediation activities that will have the greatest impact on overall risk reduction.
Where DAST Fits Within A Complete DevSecOps Strategy.
DevSecOps requires validating security controls across the full application lifecycle. DAST evaluates deployed applications to confirm authentication flows, APIs, session handling, and business logic operate securely at runtime.
Complementary practices assess system design, source code, dependencies, infrastructure configuration, pipelines, and adversarial attack paths, all delivered through the same TrollEye platform and remediation process.
Threat Modeling
Evaluates architecture, data flows, and trust boundaries before development begins. DAST then confirms at runtime whether those attack paths are actually exploitable.
Static Application Security Testing (SAST)
Analyzes source code during development to catch insecure patterns early. DAST tests how those same vulnerability classes behave when the application is running.
Software Composition Analysis (SCA)
Identifies known vulnerabilities, outdated packages, and licensing risk in open-source components. DAST shows how vulnerable dependencies are exposed at runtime.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Security
Scans infrastructure definitions for misconfigurations before they’re deployed. DAST validates how the resulting environment behaves under attack.
Pipeline Security
Embeds security checks into CI/CD so every change is evaluated automatically. DAST runs inside the pipeline to test each deployed release.
Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS)
Agentic and human testing chains vulnerabilities across applications, infrastructure, and identities. DAST provides the automated baseline PTaaS builds on.
Every practice feeds the same TrollEye platform, so runtime, code, dependency, and infrastructure findings are prioritized and mobilized together inside your CTEM program. Learn more about DevSecOps as a Service →

A closer look at how our DAST works: runtime testing, validated findings, developer workflows, compliance, and how application exposure feeds your CTEM program.
01 What is Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)?
DAST tests applications while they are running, interacting with them the way real users and attackers do to find vulnerabilities that only surface at runtime.
Our DAST continuously tests live applications in staging and production-like environments to uncover exploitable weaknesses in authentication flows, session management, APIs, input handling, and business logic.
02 How is TrollEye’s DAST different from a standard DAST scanner?
Most DAST tools generate high volumes of alerts without validating real-world impact. We validate every finding in a runtime context to prove it is exploitable and reachable, and our security engineers remove false positives before results reach your developers.
Findings are delivered through the TrollEye platform with reproduction steps, payload examples, and remediation guidance your teams can act on immediately.
03 How is DAST different from SAST?
Static Application Security Testing (SAST) analyzes source code during development, while DAST tests the deployed application from the outside, without needing access to the code.
The two are complementary: SAST catches insecure patterns early, and DAST confirms how vulnerabilities actually behave in the running application. Learn more about DAST, SAST, IAST, and RASP.
04 How does DAST fit into a CTEM program?
Applications are one domain of your attack surface. Within Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM), DAST powers the Discovery and Validation stages for running applications, surfacing runtime vulnerabilities and proving which ones are actually exploitable.
Validated findings are then prioritized alongside network, cloud, and identity exposure and mobilized to the right owners in the same platform, so root causes get fixed instead of resurfacing.
05 Will DAST slow down our releases?
No. DAST integrates into your CI/CD pipelines to test each release as it ships, and validated findings are routed into the tools your developers already use, including Jira, GitHub, and Azure DevOps.
Because findings are validated before they reach engineering, developers spend their time fixing real issues, not triaging scanner noise.
06 Does DAST help with compliance requirements?
Yes. Runtime application testing supports requirements across PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, and ISO 27001.
The TrollEye platform centralizes scan results, remediation history, and retest outcomes in one place, and because testing runs continuously, your evidence is always current when auditors ask.
Explore runtime findings, exploitability validation, and remediation workflows before starting your evaluation.
