SSDF includes a vocabulary of terms to facilitate communication among vendors and users. All of the tools we\u2019ve mentioned so far should be integrated directly into CI\/CD, allowing security tests to run automatically on every deployment. Static application security testing (SAST) and dynamic application security testing (DAST) are integrated into development workflows.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Interactive application security testing (IAST) may be used to blend static and runtime analysis for more accurate findings. Dynamic application security testing (DAST) is used to simulate attacks on a running application, helping uncover issues like authentication bypasses or insecure error handling. Additionally, unit tests should be created not just for business logic but also for key security behaviors. During the implementation phase, developers must consistently apply secure coding practices to reduce the risk of introducing vulnerabilities. The team must clarify roles and responsibilities related to security, including who handles secure coding, who leads threat modeling, and who manages vulnerability triage. Involving security architects at this stage ensures the resulting requirements are technically sound and enforceable.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
