SAST has its place, DAST is great at finding the majority of flaws that the bad guys are going to uncover, and IAST offers unique approaches to complex situations.

When every security flaw is deemed important, it creates chaos at the business level. In the short term, precious resources are wasted addressing such findings. Longer-term, these things add up to create true dysfunction in an overall security program which, ironically, makes the organization more susceptible to the risks that matter.
As a Small Business owner, your security is probably not at the top of your to-do list.

Depending on the target's nature, you may want to prevent scans from running at certain times. For instance, when you don't want scans to affect your team's productivity during working hours or when you want to guarantee that your website can handle all customer requests during peak hours. With Probely, you can pause and resume scans later, both on-demand and automatically.
Understand how to use Teams to mimic your company’s structure better and address its needs. Please note that this feature is only available for Probely Plus. Teams provide a way for you to group Users, API keys, and Targets in one place so that managing them becomes easier and time-efficient. You can create multiple teams for one account. Teams act as independent units/groups and help you separate and assign targets for each team, limit the number of targets, set scopes, and user roles. One user can be added to different teams and assigned roles that don’t affect one another, such as an admin, developer, or a custom role.
Shift left security incorporates security and testing phases at the earliest stages in SDLC, which can be done by integrating security testing in CI/CD pipelines.
