MindFort vs DAST

Your DAST is missing
85% of your attack surface.

Traditional DAST tools get stuck at login pages. They can't maintain auth, navigate complex flows, or understand business logic. The vulnerabilities behind your authentication? Those are the ones attackers find first.

Your DAST is giving you false confidence

That green "scan complete" status? It means 15% of your app was tested. The rest — everything behind authentication, complex flows, business logic — is a blind spot. Attackers don't stop at login pages. Neither should your security tools.

85% of vulnerabilities go undetected

DAST fails at SSO, MFA, and session tokens. Everything behind authentication — where the most exploitable vulnerabilities live — never gets tested.

Business logic flaws slip through

The IDOR that exposes customer data? The privilege escalation in your checkout flow? DAST can't find them. Attackers can.

Alert fatigue buries real threats

Thousands of false positives mean your team ignores the scanner. When a real vulnerability surfaces, it gets lost in the noise.

AI agents that test like security professionals

MindFort's agents maintain session state, understand authentication flows, and navigate your application the way a human tester would. They chain together attack sequences, test business logic, and adapt their approach based on what they discover.

Handles any authentication

SSO, MFA, CAPTCHA, OAuth — our agents navigate authentication the way real users do, testing everything behind the login.

Stateful, multi-step testing

MindFort understands complex flows. It maintains context across requests, chaining together attack sequences that span multiple pages and API calls.

Zero false positives

Every finding includes working proof-of-concept code. If it's in the report, it's a real vulnerability you can reproduce.

The difference at a glance

Traditional DAST tools were built for static websites. MindFort was built for modern applications.

MindFort AI
Context-aware AI reasoning
Navigates any auth flow
Full session state management
Chains complex attack sequences
Zero false positives
Complete attack surface coverage
Actionable findings with POC
Tests business logic & permissions

Coverage that matters

DAST vendors report "endpoints scanned." MindFort reports vulnerabilities found. The difference? Scanning a login page isn't the same as testing the authenticated functionality behind it.

Attack surface, not endpoints

We map and test every reachable function in your application — not just URLs. That includes API mutations, file uploads, and state-changing operations.

Continuous, not periodic

Every deploy triggers a new assessment. Your security posture is tested daily, not annually. Regressions get caught before they ship.

Intelligence, not signatures

MF-1, our custom security model, understands how applications work. It finds vulnerabilities that pattern matching can't see.
