Yes, dynamic code analysis can help find security vulnerabilities. It involves examining the behavior of a program while it is running, rather than just analyzing the source code or compiled binary. This approach can detect vulnerabilities that might not be apparent through static analysis, such as issues that arise from interactions with external systems, user input handling, or complex control flows.
For example, dynamic code analysis can identify buffer overflows, SQL injection vulnerabilities, and cross-site scripting (XSS) by monitoring how the application handles various inputs and actions during execution.
In the context of cloud computing, dynamic code analysis can be integrated into the development and deployment pipelines to ensure that applications running on cloud platforms like Tencent Cloud are secure. Services such as Tencent Cloud's Security Center offer advanced security scanning and vulnerability detection capabilities that leverage dynamic analysis techniques to help protect applications from potential threats.
