Web Application Testing

We take web application security testing to the highest level, ensuring that a customer can release their web app, knowing it has been extensively scrutinised by industry leaders.

A website / web application penetration test aims to review an entire application. An assessed application will be subjected to a review for vulnerabilities (including those detailed within the OWASP Top Ten located at https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/) in order to identify any weaknesses that could allow an attacker to compromise the application, the data it interacts with, its users or the hosting environment. Website / Web application security testing should be part of all organisations risk assessment phase prior to launching live services.

  • A website is typically considered a set of web pages viewed within a browser. This may be a static set of pages that provide visitors with information; similar to a brochure, with limited or no way for users to interact with it.
  • Web applications are interactive sites or those that rely on and provide interactive elements and are predicated on user engagement.

Identified resources will be systematically tested using a combination of automated tools and manual testing. The applications can be developed with any programming languages and technologies. “Black box” and/or “Grey/White box” testing can be used depending on the type of attackers the client wishes to simulate. There are 9 areas that will be tested against.

With secure development expertise in house, you will find that the quality of our output is unmatched in providing actionable advice for discovered vulnerabilities in your application.
