Solutions for dynamic application security testing (DAST) all run automated security tests but are aimed at very different users and also differ in accuracy, integration, and reporting capabilities. An enterprise-grade scanner is designed to integrate with development workflows, deliver developer-oriented vulnerability reports, and trigger scans automatically at certain steps of the pipeline or run them on a schedule. Scanners used as manual penetration testing tools are intended for security professionals who have the expertise to run scans manually and then investigate and verify the results.
