Automated security testing has been around since the end of the last century when we started to mimic pentesters with tools. Over the years these tools have improved a lot and are now available in many flavours. Especially in DevOps environments using continuous integration & deployment pipelines, these tools are a trade-off between speed and security resulting in low adoption rates. This can cause major contention and distrust between development and security teams, but that does not need to be the case.
Since a couple of years IAST has been emerging as a technology that tries to mitigate all the downsides of more traditional approaches. Instead of security being a slowing factor by scanning everything all the time without context, IAST uses a more debugger like approach providing 'just in time' identification of exploitable issues.
