PentPeek – an Integrated Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) Tool

Our project, PentPeek, is built on Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST), which is a method that identifies security vulnerabilities in web applications by simulating real-world attacks. With PentPeek, users can select specific vulnerabilities they want to test for, and the tool will automatically run tests using a selection of trusted penetration testing tools. The results are then compiled into a clear, comprehensive report. This user-friendly tool combines in-depth analysis with an intuitive interface, making it easier to secure web applications.
