Developer-First DAST: Fix Security Issues Before They Reach Production with Gadi Bashvitz
from TestGuild Devops Toolchain Podcast
Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) has a reputation problem. It's noisy, slow, and often ignored by developers — especially in fast-moving CI/CD pipelines. In this episode of the TestGuild Podcast, we explore developer-focused DAST and why traditional AppSec tools struggle to gain adoption in modern DevOps teams. You'll learn: Why most DAST tools fail inside real-world CI/CD workflows What "shift-left security" actually means beyond marketing buzzwords How developer-first DAST reduces false positives and improves signal quality Where AI genuinely helps in security testing — and where it's mostly hype Practical steps QA, DevOps, and engineering leaders can take to reduce risk this quarter Our guest, Gadi Bashvitz, CEO at Bright Security, shares lessons from decades in cybersecurity, including building security tools that developers actually use — without slowing delivery. If you're responsible for test automation, DevSecOps, or application security, this episode will help you rethink how DAST should work in 2026 and beyond.
