Last autumn we open-sourced the dast-operator which helps checking web applications for security vulnerabilities. The first version was able to initiate a simple dynamic application security test based on custom resources and service annotations. To read more about the first version please check our Dynamic application security testing in Kubernetes blog post. Today we are happy to announce that we are now extending the operator capabilities with a few new features to facilitate testing APIs as well.

Banzai Cloud’s Pipeline platform is an operating system that allows enterprises to develop, deploy and scale container-based applications. It leverages best-of-breed cloud components, such as Kubernetes, to create a highly productive, yet flexible environment for developers and operations teams alike. Strong security - multiple authentication backends, fine grained authorization, Vault-based dynamic secret management, automated secure communications between components using TLS, vulnerability scans, static code analysis, pod and network policies etc. - are a tier zero feature of the Pipeline platform, which we strive to automate and enable for all enterprises.
