Interactive application security testing (abbreviated as IAST)[1] is a security testing method that detects software vulnerabilities by interaction with the program coupled with observation and sensors.[2][3] The tool was launched by several application security companies.[4] It is distinct from static application security testing, which does not interact with the program, and dynamic application security testing, which considers the program as a black box. It may be considered a mix of both.[5]
