# Security Test Scanner
## Overview
Automate security vulnerability detection covering OWASP Top 10 categories including SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, broken authentication, and sensitive data exposure. Combines static analysis (source code scanning with Semgrep, Bandit, ESLint security plugins) with dynamic testing patterns (input fuzzing, header validation, authentication bypass checks).
## Prerequisites
- Static analysis tools installed (Semgrep, ESLint with `eslint-plugin-security`, Bandit for Python, or SpotBugs for Java)
- Application running in a test environment (never scan production without explicit authorization)
- Written authorization to perform security testing on the target system
- `npm audit`, `pip-audit`, or `trivy` for dependency vulnerability scanning
- OWASP ZAP or Burp Suite for dynamic application security testing (optional)
