DAST Coverage Management

From application inventory to DAST coverage.

OutScope validates whether known application endpoints are reachable externally or internally, determines their DAST analyzability, and helps AppSec teams govern what should happen next.

Built for AppSec, Product Security, DevSecOps, and security-testing teams.

DAST coverage

Measurable operating process

The coverage gap

Your application inventory is not your DAST coverage.

CMDB records do not show whether endpoints work, where they are reachable, whether DAST can analyze them, or whether they have been handled consistently.

How OutScope works

A visible execution path from inventory to DAST coverage.

Every stage produces the input for the next: probe execution, analysis, decision, orchestration, and measurable coverage.

Execution pipeline

Input → probe execution → analysis → decision → orchestration → coverage output

Deterministic workflow
STEP 01

Inventory input

Known applications, domains, and endpoints enter the workflow.

STEP 02

Execute probes

External or internal workers collect reachability evidence.

STEP 03

Analyze response

OutScope evaluates endpoint type and DAST analyzability.

STEP 04

Apply decision

Candidates are marked for onboarding, review, or exclusion.

STEP 05

Run orchestration

Pipelines preserve the decision and coordinate the next action.

STEP 06

Measure coverage

History, analytics, runs, and reports make the process measurable.

Input: known application inventory
Execution: checks and pipeline runs
Output: evidence-backed coverage state

External + internal visibility

Understand both sides of your application estate.

External probes measure reachability from the Internet. Internal workers run from an organization-controlled environment. These observations are operational signals—not vulnerability conclusions.

DAST analyzability

Can this application actually be tested with DAST?

OutScope records a classification, confidence, and reason from the observed response: normal web application or API, authentication barrier, blocked response, unavailable service, placeholder content, or review required.

Analyzability is technical suitability for DAST—not a vulnerability or security verdict.

DAST orchestration

A decision layer between inventory and security testing.

Connect coverage decisions with your DAST workflow through controlled pipelines and purpose-built integrations, with an auditable path from validation to action.

DAST destinations

Coverage governance

Move beyond “we ran a check.”

Create an evidence trail across assets, checks, reachability, analyzability, reviews, pipeline execution, and reports.

The question: What portion of the relevant application portfolio is handled by the DAST process?

API access

API keys and Python SDK.

Reports

HTML, JSON, and PDF evidence.

Analytics

Status and analyzability views.

Portfolio grouping

Companies, assets, and history.

A clearer DAST program starts with evidence
