# Application Security Testing

##### Build application security testing tools into your SDLC, from development through deployment.

## Black Duck delivers powerful application security testing solutions that help teams eliminate security defects in any software, at every stage of the application life cycle.

## No one AppSec tool does it all

A secure software development life cycle ( [SDLC](/content/glossary/what-is-sdlc.html)) demands integrated, multilayered security strategy from start to finish.

- Secure open source
- Scan proprietary code and frameworks
- Protect web UI / service interfaces

Secure open source

### Software composition analysis

Open source is the foundation of most applications, often contributing [over 75% of the code](/content/resources/analyst-reports/open-source-security-risk-analysis.html). You need a reliable software composition analysis solution to track your open source, so your applications aren’t compromised.

Scan proprietary code and frameworks

### Static analysis

Most developers aren’t security experts. You need fast and accurate static analysis to enable your developers to quickly find and fix security defects as they code.

Protect web UI / service interfaces

### Interactive and dynamic analysis

Some vulnerabilities are only detectable once the application is up and running. You need interactive and dynamic analysis to test your applications, web services, protocols, and APIs for runtime vulnerabilities.

### Test your software from every angle

Black Duck delivers multilayered application security testing tools to scan your software.

- [Static analysis](/content/static-analysis-tools-sast.html): Find and fix defects in human–and AI-generated code and IaC templates.
- [Software composition analysis](/content/software-composition-analysis-tools.html): Detect vulnerable open source dependencies and containers.
- [Interactive analysis](/content/interactive-application-security-testing.html): Pinpoint security issues in APIs and web apps.
- [Dynamic analysis](/content/dast.html): Verify the security of your apps in QA and production.
- [Fuzzing](/content/fuzz-testing.html): Discovery zero-day vulnerabilities in protocols and services.

### Shift application security left

Your developers are the first line of defense against security weaknesses and vulnerabilities. Enable them to remediate defects in real-time with the [Code Sight™ IDE Plug-in](/content/code-sight.html).

### Integrate, onboard, and automate easily

Build security seamlessly into your DevOps workflows with a wide selection of SCM, CI, and issue-tracking [integrations.](/content/integrations.html)

### Take control of AppSec risk

Your AppSec teams struggle to get a true picture of software risk. [Black Duck Polaris™ Platform](/content/platform.html) and [Software Risk Manager™](/content/software-risk-manager.html) aggregate findings across multiple AppSec tools and teams so you can standardize policies and get a unified view of risk posture.
