StackHawk makes it simple for developers to find, triage, and fix application security bugs. AppSec Closer to the Keyboard than Ever Before.
BFLA isn't about accessing someone else's data.

It's about performing actions your role shouldn't allow.

Your API checks authentication ✅
But forgets authorization ❌

Regular users executing DELETE requests. #5 on OWASP.

90% test coverage of 60% of your attack surface isn't coverage. It's false confidence.

Only 30% of AppSec teams are "very confident" they know what exists in their environment.

Intelligence = context + action. Most programs have neither.

Authentication vs Authorization.

Most developers know the difference, but BOLA vulnerabilities say otherwise.

BOLA has been the #1 API risk since 2019. Not because it's complex, but because it's easy to overlook. www.stackhawk.com/blog/underst...

The problem isn't that AI writes vulnerable code. 🤖

The problem: when velocity increases 5-10x, findings increase 5-10x. 50% of AppSec teams spend 40%+ of their time just triaging.

Manual processes weren't built for this. www.stackhawk.com/blog/ai-codi...

4 business days to disclose material incidents + annual proof of risk management = you need proactive prevention.

Do you have complete attack surface visibility? Can you prove what was tested? Do you have metrics for board oversight?

The 2026 AppSec reality:

87% adopted AI coding assistants, but 50% spend 40%+ of their time just triaging alerts.
73% can't confidently answer board questions about risk posture.

DAST programs don't stall because the tech fails.

They stall because teams can't prove impact.

3 questions your metrics need to answer:
Are we testing what matters?
Are we reducing risk?
Are we scaling?

Don't report scans. Report what matters.

Runtime testing meets ASPM. 🤜🤛

StackHawk finds exploitable vulns at runtime before code ships. Cycode adds code context, automates remediation, and validates fixes.

Together, issues are fixed in hours, not weeks, with full visibility across risk.

Most DAST programs don’t fail on testing, they fail on visibility.

StackHawk’s API Discovery finds every API right from your source code so you know what to test first.

Visibility first. Security follows.
