integrating-dast-with-owasp-zap-in-pipeline
This skill covers integrating OWASP ZAP (Zed Attack Proxy) for Dynamic Application Security Testing in CI/CD pipelines. It addresses configuring baseline, full, and API scans against running applications, interpreting ZAP findings, tuning scan policies, and establishing DAST quality gates in GitHub Actions and GitLab CI.

# Integrating DAST with OWASP ZAP in Pipeline
## When to Use
- When testing running web applications for vulnerabilities like XSS, SQLi, CSRF, and misconfigurations
- When SAST alone is insufficient and runtime behavior testing is required
- When compliance mandates dynamic security testing of web applications before production
- When testing APIs (REST/GraphQL) for authentication, authorization, and injection flaws
- When establishing continuous DAST scanning in staging environments before production deployment
**Do not use** for scanning source code (use SAST), for scanning dependencies (use SCA), or for infrastructure configuration scanning (use IaC scanning tools).
## Common Misconfigurations & Verification
