SAST analyzes source code for vulnerabilities without executing it (CodeQL, Semgrep, SonarQube). DAST tests running applications by sending crafted requests (OWASP ZAP, Burp Suite). IAST combines both approaches at runtime. Integrating both into CI/CD creates a shift-left security posture that catches issues before production.
