    Study Notes

    • Vulnerability scanners rely on well-known databases, such as the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), to identify previously known vulnerabilities.
    • Source code analysis occurs on every code commit, and should analyze if there are secrets and passwords that were placed in the repository by mistake.
    • Dependency analysis occurs on every code commit, and your application’s dependencies are collated and checked against a database of known vulnerabilities.
    • Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is used to test for known application vectors, and Infrastructure as Code Scanning is used to scan on every merge request.
