A security analyst has been tasked with ensuring all programs that are deployed into the enterprise have been assessed in a runtime environment Any critical issues found in the program must be sent back to the developer for verification and remediation. Which of the following lost describes the type of assessment taking place?
Correct Answer: B
Explanation
Dynamic code analysis is a technique that tests and analyzes an application during runtime to identify potential vulnerabilities, errors, or performance issues. Dynamic code analysis can detect problems that may not be visible in the source code or during static analysis, such as memory leaks, buffer overflows, or input validation errors. Dynamic code analysis can also simulate real-world scenarios and user inputs to evaluate the behavior and functionality of the application.
