Overview
Contrast Assess is an advanced application security testing tool that combines Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST), and Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST) approaches. This comprehensive solution provides highly accurate and continuous information on security vulnerabilities in your applications. By embedding security sensors within the application, Contrast Assess offers real-time monitoring and protection throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). This platform ensures that vulnerabilities are detected and mitigated instantly, without impacting application performance.
Features
Live architecture and flow view
In-depth visualization of application components, code trees, and data flow In order to manage software inventory and identify aggregate risk in applications, and by leveraging the instrumentation insights of the Contrast agent, organizations can visualize application architecture, code trees, and message flow information. Contrast automatically generates simple diagrams that illustrate the application’s major architectural components. This information helps the developer quickly identify the meaning of a vulnerability that Contrast pinpoints and can form a starting point for threat modeling remediation.
Developer remediation guidance
Pointed, code level remediation guidance The Contrast platform explains vulnerabilities to those that need to understand and fix them. Contrast’s innovative Security Trace format pinpoints exactly where a vulnerability appears in the code, and how it works. This enables developers to fix vulnerabilities easily without the need of security expertise.
Application attack intelligence
Attack surface mapping with route and URL intelligence Contrast Assess provides developers a mapping of the URL and routes of their software that are executed during the testing phase of the SDLC. This helps security teams increase confidence in the coverage of the Assess solution as well as developers identify the effectiveness of their overall testing practice.
