Beagle Security vs Burp Suite DAST

Beagle Security is an agentic AI penetration-testing platform for web applications, APIs and GraphQL. It automates testing to identify, validate and prioritize vulnerabilities, with more than 3,000 test cases including OWASP Top 10 and CWE Top 25 coverage. Users can record complex login flows and points of interest to test application functionality. Reports can include contextual recommendations and be downloaded as PDF, JSON, XML or CSV. CI/CD integrations include Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab, Bitbucket and Azure Pipelines; Jira, Slack, Microsoft Teams and Trello can receive results. The Web API supports project and application management, test control and result retrieval. Reports can be mapped to HIPAA and PCI DSS. The free plan costs nothing and includes one lite test per month, monthly surface scan reports, and SSL and domain expiry monitoring. Essential is $99 a month, billed annually at $1,188, with two tests per month, one concurrent test and five team members. Advanced is $299 a month, billed annually at $3,588.

Burp Suite DAST is an automated dynamic scanner for web vulnerabilities, built on the scanning engine used in Burp Suite Professional. Its Chromium-based crawler can handle JavaScript single-page applications, dynamic forms, GraphQL endpoints, and asynchronous loads, while crawling and auditing can run in parallel. Session-aware scans maintain authenticated state using username-password pairs or recorded login sequences. The scanner covers APIs described by Postman Collections, OpenAPI, SOAP, and GraphQL, with native support for several authentication methods. Teams can schedule portfolio scans from a dashboard or run them in CI pipelines, including on pull requests and merges. Deployment options include managed cloud and self-hosted software for Windows and Linux, plus Helm deployment for Kubernetes; self-hosted deployments can operate in air-gapped environments. Access controls include role-based permissions, site groups, audit trails, SAML single sign-on, and group-locked scan policies. Findings include captured requests and confirming responses. Pricing depends on the portfolio and requires contacting PortSwigger; a guided proof-of-concept trial follows a tailored demo and discovery call.
