D for sure. SAST is the way to go. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if Jacob could do some ISCST (I Spy Clever Security Tactics) on the side.

Jacob probably knows his way around both SAST and ISCST.

ISCST sounds interesting, but SAST is more common for code inspection.

I'm going with D. SAST just makes sense here. Unless Jacob is secretly a magician and is performing some sort of CAST, like pulling bunnies out of the code.

Definitely, SAST is the best choice for security assessment activities.

Haha, that would be quite the magic trick if Jacob was doing CAST in the code!

B and C? Really? Those sound like some kind of strange breakfast orders. I think Jacob is doing SAST, which stands for Source Code Analysis Security Testing.

Definitely not ISCST, that doesn't even exist in the security assessment world.

Yeah, SAST makes sense for a Security Engineer inspecting source code.

D! SAST, of course. Jacob is digging into the source code to find security issues. Time to put on his coding cape and become a vulnerability-hunting superhero.

I'm not sure, but ISCST and CAST don't seem like the right options for this scenario.

A? Isn't that the secret agent movie franchise? I'm pretty sure Jacob is doing some good old-fashioned code auditing, not moonlighting as a spy.

Definitely not ISCST or CAST. Jacob is doing Static Application Security Testing (SAST).
