Website security scanning with GitHub Actions and OWASP ZAP

This article explains how to set up automated Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) for web applications using GitHub Actions and the OWASP ZAP scanner. It covers the difference between SAST and DAST, introduces OWASP ZAP as a free open-source vulnerability scanning tool, and provides step-by-step guidance on creating a GitHub Actions workflow to perform security checks in CI/CD pipelines. The focus is on operational security testing for deployed systems, helping developers integrate vulnerability scanning into their deployment process.
