IAST
Optimize your runtime testing with Checkmarx IAST, the solution specifically built for DevOps and your QA automation or CI/CD pipelines. Checkmarx IAST fits directly into your Test/QA phase, automating analysis through your existing functional testing processes.
Find Your Most Elusive Flaws
Discover the runtime vulnerabilities in your applications that other solutions just can’t find.
TOMORROW'S RUNTIME TESTING, TODAY
Optimized Testing at Scale
Fast, Simple Test Execution
IAST is an approach to security testing that deploys agents inside a running application to discover vulnerabilities that would not be evident simply from black-box DAST or a SAST strategy based on source code analysis. With an IAST solution like Checkmarx IAST, you can run interactive security tests during QA/staging using the functional testing routines that you already have in place.
This means that IAST doesn’t become another SDLC stage that you have to manage separately. Nor does it require your team to deploy a totally new toolset or write an additional library of tests. Instead, Checkmarx IAST fits neatly within the Agile or CI/CD processes that you already have in place. It doesn’t slow down your delivery cycle or add more complexity to your pipeline. And it doesn’t leave developers in conflict with security engineers over how much time they can afford to spend on security tests. It keeps everyone happy by baking interactive security testing seamlessly into QA and staging.
FINDIN' FLAWS, FLEXIBLY
Continuous Analysis from Source to Ship
With flexible deployment, zero scan time, and simple customization, Checkmarx IAST lets you easily detect vulnerabilities while inspecting custom code, libraries, frameworks, APIs, configuration files, and runtime data flows.
Full Application Coverage Wherever You Need It
Rather than only analyzing source code or only detecting vulnerabilities evident from the outside in, Checkmarx IAST uncovers security issues at all layers of your application, and then helps you understand their impact.
This means you can determine that a certain input triggers a vulnerability and identify the specific code, library, or configuration file that enables the vulnerability. Likewise, Checkmarx IAST allows you to trace runtime data flows across the application to identify which transaction types and services may be susceptible to vulnerabilities.
What’s more, when you integrate Checkmarx IAST into your delivery pipeline, you can run tests for any type of application, however the application is architected. Whether you’re delivering a cloud native microservices app that will be deployed on Kubernetes or a legacy monolith whose original developers retired a decade ago, Checkmarx IAST keeps all facets of the application secure.
RUN SILENT, RUN DEEP
Find What Other Tools Don't
Intelligent and Efficient Remediation
Checkmarx IAST not only tells you that problems exist, but also links them to the specific application components that cause them, so engineers don’t have to waste time digging through source code or running specialized tests to get to the root of an issue. Instead, they can focus on fixing it using the intelligent insights that Checkmarx IAST delivers.
That’s all the more relevant since Checkmarx IAST provides fast and simple IAST agent deployment. You only need to deploy agents once, and you’re covered for all release cycles going forward. You don’t need to waste time redeploying agents to help troubleshoot a security issue or setting up agents again each time you need to test a new release.
Checkmarx IAST turbocharges your confidence in the security of your application. By running Checkmarx IAST after you’ve vetted your application with Checkmarx SAST, you can deploy apps into production without worrying that you’ve failed to test for all potential security issues.
