You need to be aware of many different types of software security testing. Each type is essential and should be a part of your overall security strategy. This blog post will discuss three types of software security testing: static analysis, dynamic analysis, and penetration testing. We will explain each type and how it can help protect your business.
Static Analysis
This type of testing is performed without executing the code. It is often used to find code vulnerabilities that have not yet been deployed. Static analysis can be performed manually or using automated tools.
Dynamic Analysis
This is a type of testing that involves executing code. This type of testing is often used to find vulnerabilities in code that has already been deployed. Dynamic analysis can be performed manually or using automated tools.
Penetration Testing
This type of security testing is used to find vulnerabilities in systems and networks. Penetration testing can be performed manually or using automated tools.
Each type of software security testing has its own advantages and disadvantages. The best way to protect your business is to use all three types of testing. Using all three testing types, you can find more vulnerabilities and fix them before they are exploited.
