There are a few things you should look for in a DAST tool, some that are universally recommended, and some the utility of which may depend on your organisation and its unique operating environment. Some of the features that AppCheck believes are most important to be included in your new DAST tool are outlined in this article.

A successful exploit of a DNS rebinding attack turns a victim’s browser into a proxy for attacking screened devices on the user’s private network, which are not exposed to the public internet. Rather than being a “standalone” vulnerability, it is typically used to enable further, onward attacks against devices that an individual or organisation may believe are inaccessible to attackers. DNS rebinding attacks aren’t as well known of or understood by organisations in the same way as household-name exploits such as “XSS”, and so many organisations may not have explicit protection measures in place.
