This doesn't really seem to fit into this collection. This is a config or policy review tool not a DAST.

Hi @kingthorin, thanks for the review - fair point. cloud-audit is indeed a cloud configuration/policy scanner, not a DAST in the traditional sense.
Looking at the available categories (DAST, SAST, SCA), SAST is the closest fit - cloud-audit performs static analysis of AWS account configurations against security benchmarks (CIS, SOC 2), similar to how SAST tools analyze code for security issues, just at the infrastructure layer.
I've updated the type to SAST. Happy to adjust further or close this if you feel it still doesn't fit the collection.
