Summary

Adding AppSec Santa to the Tools section under Websites.

AppSec Santa is a free, curated comparison site covering 163+ application security tools across 10 categories:

  • SAST, SCA, DAST, IAST, RASP
  • AI Security, API Security, IaC Security, ASPM, Mobile Security

It also includes:

  • 46 head-to-head tool comparisons (e.g., Checkmarx vs Veracode, Semgrep vs CodeQL)
  • 4 free interactive tools (security headers checker, SSL checker, DNS security checker, subdomain finder)
  • Original research (AI Code Security Study, Security Headers Adoption Study, State of Open Source AppSec Tools)

Why it fits

The existing Tools section lists security testing resources (SSL Labs, securityheaders.io). AppSec Santa complements these as a tool discovery and comparison resource for practitioners evaluating their security stack.

Format

Added as data/00-general/websites/02-tools/0005-appsecsanta.json following the existing JSON contribution format.
