Web App Penetration Testing

What is Web App Penetration Testing?

Application penetration tests uncover real-world opportunities for hackers to exploit applications, potentially gaining unauthorized access to sensitive data or taking over systems for malicious purposes.

Our expert penetration testers meticulously analyze all aspects of your web app to eliminate security weaknesses. This process helps identify and prioritize organizational risks, forming the foundation of a secure software development lifecycle.

Testing Methodologies

We combine our expertise with renowned methodologies such as the OWASP Testing Guide and the Penetration Testing Execution Standard. Our tests are conducted both manually and automatically, with all findings from security scanners validated by our team. Depending on the complexity and available time, we also provide small proof-of-concepts to demonstrate vulnerabilities.

Benefits of Web App Penetration Testing

• Ensure compliance with PCI DSS and other security standards.
• Reduce the risk and legal ramifications of a data breach.
• Verify alignment with OWASP to address common exploitation mechanisms.
• Ensure encryption methodologies meet security standards before data storage.
• Test critical aspects of application security, such as user roles, privilege escalation, password-based access controls, and data authentication.
• Receive a threat model and actionable recommendations for developers during development or upgrades.
• Gain a competitive advantage by implementing robust application security quality control.
