Overview

Your web applications are the public face of your business and often the primary gateway to your most sensitive data. Even a single unnoticed flaw such as an injection vulnerability or broken access control can allow attackers to steal customer information, manipulate transactions, or take full control of your systems. These compromises can lead to costly financial losses, regulatory penalties, and severe brand damage.

Our Web Application Penetration Testing service goes beyond automated scans by simulating real attacker techniques tailored to your apps and business logic, revealing critical security gaps before they become incidents.

Web App

Authentication & Authorization

Account takeover, session hijacking, privilege escalation.

Input Handling & Injection

SQLi, XSS, command injection, template injection.

Business Logic Flaws

Bypassing workflows, abusing trust boundaries, misusing API calls.

Session & Cookie Security

Insecure cookie flags, weak session termination, fixation.

File Upload & Deserialization

Malicious file execution, XXE, insecure parsing.

API Security

Broken object-level authorization, rate-limiting bypasses.

Cryptography & Data Exposure

Weak encryption, sensitive data leaks.

Configuration Issues

Security headers, TLS configuration, default accounts.
What you will get

Deliverables that keep every stakeholder aligned

We deliver more than raw findings: you receive a complete package that leadership, engineers, and auditors can all act on immediately.

Reporting package

Evidence-rich documentation for executives and technical teams.

Executive summary that explains business impact, key risks, and the narrative behind the assessment.
Vulnerability summary with grouped issues, risk owners, severity, and time-to-fix guidance.
Technical analysis that includes screenshots, observations, attack flow notes, and proof-of-exploitation where appropriate.
Metrics & scoring covering CVSS, likelihood/impact rationales, and remediation priority to unblock quick decisions.

Remediation toolkit

Clear next steps, mapped to the people fixing the issues.

Excel remediation tracker that consolidates every vulnerability with owners, status, due dates, and comments so progress is easy to measure.
Prioritized backlog with quick wins, blocked items, and prerequisites highlighted to reduce remediation friction.
Restitution meeting to walk through findings live, align on fixes, and answer engineer questions while the context is fresh.
Optional retest to validate patches and refresh CVSS scores so the final report reflects your latest posture.
Where this service excels

Recent scenarios our team solved

Real-world stories that mirror the way customers deploy, defend, and recover.

Retail

Gift card fraud via checkout race conditions

Simulated parallel cart updates that bypassed balance validation during payment retries.

Outcome

Rebuilt checkout locking, tuned rate limits, and stopped $120k in projected fraud losses.

Fintech

Broken object-level authorization in account statements

Abused predictable IDs to access other users' PDFs despite SSO protections.

Outcome

Implemented per-request authorization checks and hardened document URLs with signed tokens.

SaaS

Subdomain takeover through orphaned tenants

Identified stale DNS entries left after tenant deletion that pointed to unused buckets.

Outcome

Decommissioned orphaned records, added automated DNS hygiene checks, and enforced ownership validation.

Testing Methodology

1

Scoping & Kick-off

Define the project’s objectives, scope, and constraints, aligning expectations, testing approach, and deliverables during a structured kick-off meeting.

2

Reconnaissance

Gather information about the web application’s structure, technologies, endpoints, user roles, and hidden features through both passive research and active discovery techniques, for a detailed map of potential attack points.

3

Scanning & Vulnerability Identification

Perform automated and manual scans to uncover potential weaknesses, following OWASP Top 10 guidelines to ensure comprehensive and accurate vulnerability identification.

4

Exploitation

Safely validate confirmed weaknesses with proof-of-concept attacks to demonstrate real impact without disrupting production.

5

Reporting & Debrief

Produce a comprehensive report containing an executive summary, scope, methodology, prioritized findings with evidence/PoCs, business impact, risk ratings, and actionable remediation, and present the results during a restitution meeting.

6

Retest (Optional)

Ensure all identified vulnerabilities have been properly fixed without introducing new risks.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Staging or pre-production environment preferred (or production with coordination).
  • At least two test accounts per user role.
  • API docs, test credentials, and user role details if available.
  • Whitelist our IPs to prevent WAF interference.
  • Use dummy test data.

Because web apps are one of the most targeted entry points. Traditional scanners don’t test real exploitation scenarios, we simulate how attackers actually operate.

Typically between 5 and 10 days, depending on app complexity, roles, and scope.

All testing is safe and non-destructive. Any potentially disruptive actions are done in coordination with your team.
