My main use case for StackHawk is to analyze our application live in our EKS cluster. A specific example of how we use StackHawk in our EKS cluster is that we deployed an agent authenticated to the StackHawk platform and it is in charge of analyzing our different repositories, letting us know if we have any open vulnerabilities within our base code. Every scenario of analysis is completely published into the StackHawk platform so we can see if we have open vulnerabilities to solve and how much time it takes to perform the analysis.

My main use case for StackHawk is primarily as a PCI requirement for DAST. As a quick specific example of how I use StackHawk for that PCI requirement, it is one of the controls that sits alongside the requirement to have SAST. I deployed StackHawk and Snyk because those two products were easily integrated and therefore providing a unified view of vulnerabilities that existed either during the CI/CD process or running live.
Dynamic Application Security Testing is a critical tool for identifying vulnerabilities in running applications. It simulates attacks to detect potential security issues that could be exploited in production environments.DAST analyzes web applications during runtime, actively identifying security weaknesses through simulated attacks without needing access to source code. Leveraging real-time interaction with applications, it offers insights into their behavior and security posture. This...
