Bright Security vs. AppScan vs. JSON vs. JavaScript Comparison Chart

Bright Security is a developer-centric Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) solution that helps organizations ship secure applications and APIs quickly and cost-effectively. Its approach enables quick and iterative scans to identify critical security vulnerabilities early in the SDLC without compromising on quality or delivery speed. Bright empowers AppSec teams to provide governance for securing APIs and web apps while allowing developers to take ownership of security testing and remediation work. Unlike legacy DAST solutions built for AppSec professionals, which are complex to deploy and find vulnerabilities late in the development process, Bright's DAST solution is optimized for the DevOps world. It can be deployed as early as the Unit Testing phase and run throughout the SDLC, learning and optimizing from every scan. By enabling organizations to detect and remediate vulnerabilities early in the SDLC, Bright reduces risk at a lower cost and effort.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language. JSON is built on two structures: 1. A collection of name/value pairs. In various languages, this is realized as an object, record, struct, dictionary, hash table, keyed list, or associative array. 2. An ordered list of values. In most languages, this is realized as an array, vector, list, or sequence. These are universal data structures. Virtually all modern programming languages support them in one form or another.
