Static Application Security Testing

Shift your development cycle Left and build secure code with security assurance embedded from the ground up. Ensure your applications are secure-by-design with Blacklock’s “inside out” SAST service.

Identifying Potential Security Issues And Weaknesses In Software Early In The SDLC
overview

Identify Security Issues early

Testing your applications in the later stages of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) increases the risk of vulnerabilities entering production and affecting application security, stability, and usability. Scrambling to fix issues puts undue stress on your staff, late-stage fixes are expensive and can significantly delay app time-to-market.
‍

While static analysis is crucial, dynamic testing adds another layer of assurance through evaluating code behaviour in real-world scenarios. Blacklock extends the SAST offering byadding dynamic testing capabilities, simulating runtime conditions to uncover issues that static analysis might otherwise miss. This holistic approach to testing ensures that applications are not only well-constructed but also perform reliably under various conditions. With Blacklock, you get a comprehensive view of your software's quality and performance, giving you the confidence to deploy to production, knowing your assurance bases are covered.

Hear From Our Customers

Fantastic PTaaS Experience

We had a fantastic experience with the Blacklock PTaaS platform. What stood out was the identification of vulnerabilities and remediation work goes in parallel, which made the pen test more efficient and smart and delivered a clean report. The UI is simple, and the ability to update vulnerability status ourselves makes the process smooth. Overall, it was a great experience, and we are happy to have worked with such a dedicated and professional team!

Happy with choice

After testing the Blacklock automated penetration tool during a trial period, I decided a subscription was the right choice. Payment via the AWS marketplace was frictionless, and the Blacklock team has been extremely responsive to onboarding and support questions. I've been very happy with how Blacklock got us to OWASP Top 10 compliance in only a few days. I was impressed at how our entire attack surface was scanned for common vulnerabilities. The findings generated by the scans are clear and specific. The reports look very professional, and the vulnerability lists reference how the discovered issues may be corrected. The people behind Blacklock are very knowledgeable and have been helpful tuning the reports to our needs. In my opinion, Blacklock provides excellent value.

Penetration tests made easy...

We had an urgent penetration test requirement come up from the customer. We came to Blacklock from a reference, and they got onto it very quickly. The onboarding process was quick, and we were able to kick off pentesting as per our schedule. The manual pentesting was very thorough, and the customer accepted the report with high satisfaction. I highly recommend Blacklock and won't hesitate to come back when we have a new requirement. Thank you Blacklock team
