Our Application Penetration Testing Process
Our process blends automated scanning with manual testing techniques to uncover issues missed by scanners alone.
- Pre-Engagement & Scoping
Define application scope, testing rules, and data sensitivity. - Reconnaissance
Map application architecture and identify inputs, parameters, and endpoints. - Threat Modeling & Vulnerability Analysis
Test for flaws like broken authentication, injection attacks, and misconfigurations. - Exploitation
Safely exploit vulnerabilities to demonstrate risk and potential data exposure. - Post-Exploitation
Evaluate how far an attacker could move within the application (account takeover, data exfiltration, etc.). - Reporting & Debrief
Deliver actionable reports with executive summaries, technical findings, proof-of-concepts, and remediation guidance.
Application Vulnerabilities We Test For

SQL, command, and XML injections. - Broken Authentication & Access Control
Weak login, privilege escalation, session management flaws. - Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
Persistent, reflected, and DOM-based injection flaws. - Insecure Configurations
