API SECURITY TESTING

Strengthen Your APIs With SOAtest’s Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)

Turn functional tests into continuous security checks. Adding DAST penetration testing to every CI run.

Accelerate API Security Testing With AI and Test Reusability

With SOAtest, rapidly generate API test cases using AI. Then codelessly reuse them for penetration testing. Identify OWASP vulnerabilities and CWEs earlier in your development cycle, giving developers, QA, and AppSec teams immediate insight into API risks.

Comprehensive API Security Testing That Fits Your Workflow

SOAtest makes it easy to integrate penetration testing directly into your existing API testing and CI processes. By running automated security checks that define attack vectors, developers, QA, and AppSec teams detect vulnerabilities earlier, collaborate more effectively, and reduce costly rework.

Reuse Your API Tests for Faster Security Coverage

Run seamless DAST penetration tests with built-in OWASP ZAP support or Parasoft Burp Suite extensions. Reuse your existing functional API tests to accelerate security coverage, saving time while uncovering vulnerabilities that manual testing might miss.

Comprehensive Penetration Testing Rules

SOAtest supports a wide range of penetration testing rules that cover common vulnerabilities and security misconfigurations so you be confident your APIs are thoroughly tested. SOAtest identifies critical risks across Web, REST, and SOAP APIs—from directory browsing, path traversal, and remote file inclusion to SQL injection, XSS, and insecure HTTP methods.

Test APIs Across All Application States

SOAtest helps you gain precise control over how your APIs are tested by allowing you to specify the exact steps to reach different states of the application. This ensures even deeply nested operations are assessed for security risks.

Bring Your Own Policy (BYOP)

Import custom OWASP ZAP scan policies to tailor security testing to your organization’s unique requirements. Combine these policies with existing API scenarios to automate ongoing vulnerability detection and gain actionable insights.

Run Security Tests as Part of Continuous Integration

Integrate API security testing directly into your CI/CD pipeline using tools like Jenkins, Azure DevOps, TeamCity, and Bamboo, etc. SOAtest automates penetration tests to discover vulnerabilities as soon as they’re introduced, reducing late-cycle rework and accelerating release velocity.

View Security Testing Results in Context

See security testing results alongside your functional test outcomes in Parasoft’s centralized reporting platform DTP. This unified reporting gives stakeholders clear, actionable insights for informed decision-making in Agile and DevSecOps environments.
