What is web application penetration testing?
Web app penetration testing is the process of investigating an organisation’s apps for a thorough assessment of security vulnerabilities.
Web application penetration testing services look at applications, including the gated content, to identify any vulnerabilities that could impact your business.
Once the exploitable security vulnerabilities that could cause a breach are identified, we support organisations to secure them, preventing future cyberattacks.
Our web application penetration testing methodology is closely aligned with the OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project®) Top 10.
We have never conducted a security that didn’t detect at least one vulnerability. Read more about our web application penetration testing examples.

Insecure setup or configuration of networks
Through web application penetration tests, we will attempt to breach your system by looking for weak passwords, open ports, unpatched applications and incorrectly set user privileges.
Incorrect encryption and authentication
Can your WiFi and internet communications be intercepted and decrypted? Article 32 of GDPR in the UK includes encryption as an example of an appropriate technical measure to secure data. Are you encrypting data to a sufficient standard?
Code and command injection
Throughout the web application penetration test, we check that your web forms are built to protect against SQL injection attacks, and find how they behave when someone tries to interfere with them.
Session management
Cookies and sessions tokens are used to make web applications more user friendly, but they can be exploited for malicious purposes, making you vulnerable to attack.
Make an enquiry
Penetration of an application can cost a business over £2M.
Can your business sustain such a significant cost?
Your customers’ stolen data may be sold on the dark web
Is your brand strong enough to withstand such a blow?

Common Security Vulnerabilities
A Guide To Web Application Penetration Testing
All web applications share similar features.
Web applications give businesses the ability to streamline their operations, increasing efficiency and reducing costs, which is why they have been widely adopted.
Web applications include online forms, spreadsheets, video and photo editing, file conversion, file scanning, and email programs such as Gmail, Yahoo and AOL, as well as packages such as Google Workspace and Microsoft 365.
We’ve all heard in the news about web applications that have been exploited. Most of the time, these vulnerabilities could have been identified by a full web application penetration test.
