FAQPage Schema

How do I automate web application security scanning in a CI/CD pipeline?▼

Automated web application security scanning integrates directly into CI/CD pipelines to detect vulnerabilities during development. This facilitates passive and active scans, ensuring continuous security posture assessment without manual intervention.

What is the best way to run vulnerability scanning for API endpoints?▼

Vulnerability scanning for API endpoints supports OpenAPI, SOAP, and GraphQL formats. It automates headless security assessments to identify vulnerabilities in web application APIs, ensuring comprehensive API security testing.

Do I need Java to run OWASP ZAP vulnerability scans?▼

Running OWASP ZAP vulnerability scans requires Java 11 or higher. The scanning environment is compatible with Linux, macOS, and Windows, and also provides Docker support for containerized deployments.

Can I perform passive and active web security scans using Docker?▼

Passive and active web security scans can be executed using the provided Docker support. This allows you to run baseline security tests against target web applications in containerized environments without local installation overhead.

How does an intercepting proxy work for web security testing?▼

An intercepting proxy for web security testing inspects and modifies traffic between your browser and the web application. This mechanism helps identify vulnerabilities by analyzing how the application handles manipulated requests and responses.
