Web Application Penetration Testing

We assess your websites for real-world security flaws like injections, broken access control, and logic bugs, ensuring attackers can't exploit what your users rely on.

What is Web Application Penetration Testing?

Web application penetration testing is a security assessment that simulates real-world attacks against your web application to identify vulnerabilities in authentication, authorization, input validation, session management, and business logic, going beyond automated scanning to find flaws specific to how your product works.

Testing Checklist

Every engagement covers these critical security areas.

SQL & NoSQL injection (all input vectors)
Reflected, Stored & DOM-based XSS
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
Broken authentication & session management
Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR)
Horizontal & vertical privilege escalation
File upload and path traversal
Security misconfiguration
Sensitive data exposure in responses
Business logic bypass testing
Rate limiting and brute force protection

Testing Methodology

A structured, repeatable process that ensures thorough coverage and actionable results.

STEP 01

Reconnaissance & Mapping

Map application architecture, identify endpoints, authentication flows, and technology stack through automated and manual discovery.

STEP 02

Authentication & Session Testing

Test login mechanisms, session management, password policies, MFA implementation, and account lockout controls.

STEP 03

Injection & Input Validation

Test all input vectors for SQL, NoSQL, OS command, LDAP, and XPath injection vulnerabilities with manual and tool-assisted techniques.

STEP 04

Access Control Testing

Verify horizontal and vertical access controls, IDOR vulnerabilities, privilege escalation paths, and role-based access enforcement.

STEP 05

Business Logic Testing

Identify workflow bypass, race conditions, price manipulation, and other logic flaws that automated scanners miss.

STEP 06

Reporting & Remediation

Deliver detailed report with risk-rated findings, reproduction steps, and developer-friendly remediation guidance.

Framework Alignment

Our methodology is aligned with industry-recognized security frameworks for thorough coverage and compliance readiness.
