Static Application Security Testing (SAST) analyzes an application's source code for vulnerabilities. This type of testing is only possible when the source code of an application is available. Fast Application Security Testing (FAST) tests an application's interface for vulnerabilities and can be performed without access to the source code. Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) tests an application while it is running and can also be performed without access to the source code. Executable Application Security Testing (EAST) tests the executable files of an application and does not require access to the source code.
