What it is
Web applications are one of the most frequently targeted attack surfaces in modern organisations. Whether it is a customer portal, an internal business system, an API, or an application built rapidly with the help of AI tooling, if it handles data or performs business logic, it needs to be tested.
Our Web Application Assessment is a manual, methodology-driven penetration test conducted against your application. We test for the vulnerabilities that matter in real-world attack scenarios, not just the issues that automated scanners surface.
What we test
Testing is conducted against the OWASP Top 10 and wider application security risks, covering authentication and session management, access control and authorisation, injection vulnerabilities including SQL, command, and template injection, business logic flaws, API security, sensitive data exposure, and security misconfigurations.
We test both authenticated and unauthenticated attack surfaces. For applications with multiple user roles, we test privilege escalation and horizontal access control issues between accounts. For APIs, we test endpoint security, authentication mechanisms, and data exposure independently of the front-end application.
Applications built quickly, including those developed with AI-assisted tooling, frequently contain logic flaws and access control issues that automated testing does not reliably detect. Manual testing by an experienced assessor remains the most effective way to identify these.
What you receive
A written report covering all findings with severity ratings, proof of concept evidence, and remediation guidance. We provide a technical debrief with your development or IT team to walk through findings and discuss fixes in the context of your specific application and stack.
