SecuDAST
What it is
SecuDAST is a paid, self-hosted dynamic security testing product for applications running inside an organization’s network. It tests authenticated flows, APIs, single-page applications, and traditional form-based sites, including internal, staging, and pre-production targets reachable from that network. The scanning engine runs beside applications, without cloud scanning infrastructure or traffic sent outside the environment. Scans begin in a safe mode that avoids destructive payloads and rate-limits probing; teams can configure stronger checks and exclude paths. Findings include the exact request and response demonstrating each issue. Results flow into the SecuNexa dashboard with evidence, standard reports, and a prioritized workflow. Scoped scan profiles support pipeline stages and nightly schedules, with named support for GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, and self-hosted runners. Dashboard controls include local accounts, MFA, optional LDAP or SSO, seven project roles, and an immutable audit log. SecuNexa says engines run offline without phone-home telemetry, using signed offline vulnerability-data bundles. Pricing is available on request.
