Dynamic Code Analysis

Summary

Dynamic Code Analysis is a method of analyzing software applications while they are running to identify vulnerabilities and security flaws during execution.

Detailed Description

Dynamic Code Analysis involves executing the program with various inputs and monitoring its behavior in real-time. This technique helps in uncovering issues that may not be visible through static analysis, such as runtime exceptions, memory leaks, and other vulnerabilities that manifest only when the application is in operation. This approach is particularly useful in web3 environments where smart contracts can behave differently based on user interactions, external data, and system state.
