Web Application Penetration Testing

CREST approved web application testing by our world-leading cybersecurity experts.

Always available

Available to hackers 24x7 and brim-full of data, web applications present a tempting target. Our penetration testing relies on the manual exploitation of vulnerabilities so you get the assessment of business risk that only an expert tester can provide. We combine this with the use of the best automated tools.

All assessments are followed by a comprehensive report, with both non-technical and technical descriptions, alongside recommendations for remediation.

Visibility of risks

We provide full visibility of the risks.

Unauthorised access past authentication controls to escalate privileges
Introduction of malicious code
Manipulation of the application’s function
Defacing of the website or causing disruption
Authentication testing
Gaining access to the hosting infrastructure

Testing the cycle

Securing an application is about the full life-cycle – from development, through the in-life processes right through to de-commissioning. The testing will involve any DevOps methodology that is used by your company. The four areas are:

IAST: Interactive Application Security Testing
SAST: Static Application Security Testing
RAST: Run-Time Application Security Testing
DAST: Dynamic Application Security Testing

Our testing methodologies

We tailor penetration testing to your specific web application and have developed robust, yet flexible testing methodologies that will give you peace of mind. The tests are carried out from both the authenticated and un-authenticated perspective and will offer an evaluation of the application's security posture from both valid users and unauthorised users.
