An application passes static code analysis but fails when a running endpoint exposes unintended behavior. Which additional assessment best complements SAST?

Choose the single best answer.

A.Only rerunning the same SAST scan on unchanged source
B.DAST against the running application
C.Only a WAF managed-rule policy
D.Only dependency scanning for known package vulnerabilities

Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

DAST against the running application

DAST evaluates running behavior and complements SAST. Repeating unchanged static analysis may miss the runtime issue. Dependency scans target known component weaknesses. WAF rules provide ingress protection but do not replace testing the deployed endpoint’s behavior.
