Beagle Security vs Safeguard 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.

Safeguard DAST dynamically tests running applications, reporting findings alongside how much discovered attack surface the scan reached. Its graph-aware crawler uses Safeguard SAST call graphs, route tables, and authentication middleware. Endpoint inventories can come from OpenAPI, GraphQL introspection, gRPC reflection, and live traffic samples. Targeted payloads cover SQL, OS command, SSRF, XSS, and deserialization sink classes, with parameter shapes informing generation. Authenticated flows include form authentication, OAuth 2.0 refresh, JWT bearer, session cookies, SAML, and mutual TLS. Listed scan modes are Fast, Deep, Progressive, and Reconnaissance; Reconnaissance sends no probes. Coverage Score explains reached surface and stopping reasons, while stated coverage includes the OWASP Top 10 and API Top 10. JavaScript, JSON, and source maps are analyzed for exposed credentials, routes, endpoints, cloud references, personal data, configuration, and comments. Secret samples are redacted, ownership verification gates requests, and scope, rate, and budget limits constrain them. It supports self-hosted and web use, hybrid deployment, CI integrations, pull-request and IDE workflows, and listed infrastructure analyses. Pricing is freemium: Free plan; paid from $9/mo.
