Web Application Penetration Testing

Our web application penetration testing helps you find and fix weaknesses before they can be exploited from a wide range of advanced cyber attacks.

Secure Applications Against Cyber Threats

Website Application Penetration Tests are designed to evaluate the security of any browser or network-based application by simulating attacks from malicious sources like malware, spyware, and cyber criminals. We also provide certified penetration testing services for your network, intranet, and mobile applications, helping you to ensure full PCI DSS compliance.

our approach

We provide comprehensive, PCI DSS approved penetration testing services for all your web applications. Our experts use proprietary tools and techniques to uncover any vulnerabilities present before they can be exploited. Once testing is complete, we produce a comprehensive report that documents testing results, describes any issues identified, and provides specific recommendations for quick and efficient remediation.

Locate Your Weaknesses

Our advanced penetration testing tools and processes have been honed over time to help us identify any and all security weaknesses in your browser- and network-based applications. Common web-based vulnerabilities include:

Path Traversal

Aims to access files and directories that are stored outside the web root folder.

SQL Injection

Aims to "inject" an SQL query via the input data from the client to the application.

Application Mapping

Traces data flows to identify weak areas prone to attack.

Examining HTTPS Use

Ensures your SSL certificate is valid and operational.

Cookie Manipulation

Aims to access credentials and other data stored within cookies.

Buffer Overflows

Aims to overwrite memory fragments of the process that should never be modified.

Cross-Site Scripting

Uses a web application to send malicious code to a different end user.

Error Handling

Ensures your application can handle the unexpected and fail safe, if necessary.

Session Management

Ensures your application keeps track of anonymous users after the very first user request.

Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) in the payment card industry involves deploying a recognized solution by the PCI council, where hardware, processes, and technology undergo rigorous testing against the current P2PE Standard v3.1 or earlier versions. The P2PE standard combines a recognized and certified PTS device with software and encryption methods to allow cardholder data to be encrypted upon swipe and transmitted encrypted throughout the merchant environment until decrypted within a decryption environment, inaccessible to the merchant.
In today’s rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape, achieving and maintaining PCI compliance is more critical than ever. With the latest update to PCI DSS 4.0.1, businesses must adapt to meet new standards designed to enhance security and flexibility. This updated PCI Compliance Checklist outlines the essential steps for staying compliant while optimizing your organization’s security posture.
As with many things in popular culture, the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) has many myths associated with it. The PCI DSS has existed for many years and despite the efforts of the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) and industry experts, many misconceptions and myths persist. Below we will cover some common PCI DSS myths vs. the reality.
The PCI DSS standard is largely responsible for dictating the way organizations all over the world approach cybersecurity and the protection of credit card data. As v4.0 of the standard approaches, organizations should aim to identify and plan updates for the aspects of their security and compliance programs that are most likely to be affected.
Employees of companies of all sizes are now either required to shelter in place or State and Government lock-downs are forcing companies to require their employees to work remotely. How will this impact your PCI-DSS Compliance?
