Web Application Penetration Testing
Comprehensive security assessments that go beyond automated scanning to identify critical vulnerabilities across your entire application stack, from front end interfaces to back end APIs and database layers.
Overview
Web applications represent one of the most targeted attack surfaces in modern organisations. Our web application penetration testing service delivers a thorough, manual driven assessment that simulates the tactics of sophisticated adversaries. We examine every layer of your application, including authentication mechanisms, session management, input validation, business logic, and server side configurations, to uncover vulnerabilities that automated tools consistently miss.
Our team of OSCP, OSWE, and OSCE3 certified professionals leverage industry leading methodologies combined with proprietary testing techniques developed through years of offensive security experience. Every engagement is tailored to your application's unique architecture, technology stack, and threat landscape.
Our Assessment Methodology
Reconnaissance and Mapping
- Enumerate application endpoints, parameters, and hidden functionality
- Map authentication flows, user roles, and privilege boundaries
Vulnerability Discovery
- Test for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities including injection, XSS, and CSRF
- Assess authentication and session management for weaknesses
Exploitation and Validation
- Develop proof of concept exploits for identified vulnerabilities
- Chain multiple vulnerabilities to demonstrate real world impact
Analysis and Reporting
- Assign risk ratings using CVSS scoring methodology
- Provide detailed remediation guidance with code level recommendations
