Watch the webinar: Scale secure coverage without scaling headcount
Summary: PortSwigger says it surveyed AppSec leaders across several industries and regions earlier this year and more than half reported struggling with the complexity of modern applications, amid expanding application estates, growing API usage, and faster release cycles. The company is promoting Burp Suite DAST, which it says runs on the same proprietary scanning engine as Burp Suite Professional and adds role-based access control, SIEM integrations, and reporting to scale testing across hundreds of apps and APIs.
Why it matters: More than half of the AppSec leaders PortSwigger surveyed say application complexity is outpacing their teams, and the stated symptom is apps shipping without proper testing while backlogs grow.
