Astra Security Testing Services Overview

Last updated: June 9, 2026

Introduction

Astra offers three core security testing services: Red Teaming, DAST scanning, and Penetration Testing.

Red Teaming

Astra's Red Teaming simulates real-world attacks on your infrastructure and systems from an attacker's perspective, helping uncover vulnerabilities that traditional testing methods may miss.

DAST Scanner

Astra's Dynamic Application Security Testing scanner is continuously updated to detect the latest vulnerabilities, including newly disclosed threats and traditional weaknesses such as those in the OWASP Top 10. It supports quick scans and deep scans, and integrates directly into your CI/CD pipeline to trigger automatic scans on every code update.

Penetration Testing

Astra offers penetration testing for web applications, mobile applications, networks, and cloud infrastructure. All pentests follow industry standards including OWASP Top 10, OWASP WSTG, and NIST 800-115. Testing methodologies include black box, gray box, and white box approaches to ensure comprehensive coverage.
