Selected Answer: C
I BELIEVE THE ANSWER TO BE DAST: FROM THE STUDENT GUIDE Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) Dynamic code analysis is the process of reviewing code while it is being executed and used as a final product. Testing in this way helps reveal issues that a static code analysis may miss, as some issues are more easily identified while the code is running and being evaluated by providing unpredictable inputs, such as boundary checks, fuzzing, and URL manipulation. Many times DAST is performed using scanning tools, such as OWASPʼs Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) available at https://www. zaproxy.org/. KEY WORD HERE IS EXECUTED.. IT IS AN .EXE
