Web Application Penetration Testing
As a direct interface with clients, applications are usually designed with functionality and aesthetics in mind with security considerations coming in second place.
However, web application security risks can be significant, with a range of issues including confidential data exposure or brand damage through public attacks.
Who is it for?
Almost all modern organisations will have some type of bespoke web application, from simple brochureware sites advertising their services, to bespoke applications that integrate business specific logic.
We offer security testing appropriate for all levels of complexity, from simple security reviews of Content Management Systems, to deep-dive assessments of bespoke applications.
We often engage directly with development teams who are conscious of building security into the fundamental design of their application, but also with end users who are looking for assurances about the software
they are using.
How can we help?
From remote application tests to on-site, detailed investigations, our application security assessment services are individually tailored to your needs, delivered by penetration testers who specialise in security at the application layer. Application testing can include an approach which aims to replicate the approach an external attacker would take, or testing can be fully informed, such as including documentation or code-assisted techniques to ensure a more efficient approach.
What we test
From common vulnerabilities to complex application logic, our methodology includes but is not limited to, the OWASP Top 10. For example, testing for application issues such as:
Identity & Access
Ensure accounts use MFA and follow least privilege principles
Application logic
Abuse of functionality and logical flaws within applications.
Authentication attacks
Username enumeration, brute force attacks, and credential stuffing.
Authorisation
Insufficient credential and
session management.
Client-side Attacks
Cross-site scripting and
response splitting.
Command Execution
Injection attacks, deserialization and buffer overflow flaws.
Insecure File Upload
Insecure file uploads allow code execution, XSS, data exposure
