Security Testing
A single unpatched dependency or misconfigured endpoint can be the only thing standing between your application and a breach. We test your web apps, APIs and infrastructure the way an attacker would, documenting every vulnerability with severity, proof of concept and a clear remediation path.
Common Security Risks
Security gaps rarely show up during normal functional QA. They surface when someone goes looking for them, and the people looking are not always on your side. Here are the problems we see most often.
SQL injection, command injection and similar flaws often pass functional testing unnoticed because the application still "works" for normal inputs. It takes a deliberate attempt to break input handling to expose how easily an attacker could manipulate your database.
Weak password policies, predictable session tokens or improperly invalidated sessions let attackers impersonate legitimate users. These issues are rarely caught in functional QA because the login flow "works" for the tester using it as intended.
Unencrypted API responses, verbose error messages and improperly secured storage can leak customer data, credentials or internal system details without ever triggering an obvious error.
Without dedicated testing, users can often access data or actions outside their intended permission level simply by changing a URL parameter or an API request, an issue functional testing almost never catches.
Third-party libraries and frameworks accumulate known, publicly documented vulnerabilities over time. Without regular scanning, your application can run code with a published exploit for months without anyone noticing.
Many B2B contracts, certifications and regulatory frameworks require documented proof of security testing. Without it, you risk losing deals, failing audits or facing penalties regardless of how secure your application actually is.
Our Security Testing Stack
We combine automated scanning with manual penetration testing, because the vulnerabilities that matter most are rarely the ones a scanner alone can catch.
What We Test
Every engagement is scoped around your actual attack surface, not a generic vulnerability checklist. Here is what's covered.
Manual and automated testing of your web application against OWASP Top 10 risks, including injection, broken authentication and security misconfiguration.
Testing REST and GraphQL endpoints for broken object-level authorization, excessive data exposure and improper rate limiting.
Automated scans across your application and infrastructure to identify known vulnerabilities, outdated components and misconfigurations.
Assessing servers, firewalls and network configurations for open ports, weak protocols and exposed services.
Verifying login flows, session management, password policies and role-based access controls cannot be bypassed or escalated.
Checking for unencrypted data in transit, insecure storage and information leakage through error messages or response headers.
Static analysis of your codebase to catch insecure coding patterns, hardcoded secrets and logic flaws before they reach production.
Auditing libraries, plugins and integrations for known CVEs and supply-chain risks affecting your application.
Reviewing cloud storage, IAM permissions and infrastructure-as-code for misconfigurations that expose data or systems publicly.
Security testing mapped to frameworks such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2 and GDPR, with documentation suited for audits.
Working directly with your developers to fix confirmed vulnerabilities, then re-testing to verify each fix closes the gap.
Recurring scans and testing integrated into your release cycle, so new vulnerabilities are caught before they reach production.
Industries We Support
Security requirements and compliance obligations differ sharply by industry. We tailor testing scope and reporting to the regulatory demands specific to your sector.
Why Teams Choose Us
Anyone can run a scanner and hand you a list of CVEs. We focus on confirmed, exploitable findings with a clear path to fixing them.
Book a Free Security AssessmentAutomated tools catch known patterns. Our testers manually probe business logic, access controls and edge cases that scanners consistently miss.
Every engagement is structured around the OWASP Testing Guide and Top 10 risks, giving you coverage that maps directly to industry standards.
Reports prioritize vulnerabilities by exploitability and impact, not just CVSS scores, so your team fixes what actually matters first.
We test authentication, authorization and data exposure across every endpoint, not just the user-facing parts of your application.
We re-test every confirmed fix to verify the vulnerability is actually closed, not just patched on paper.
Security scans can run automatically in your deployment pipeline, catching new vulnerabilities before they reach production.
We walk your engineering team through every finding with proof of concept and fix guidance, not a PDF that gets filed and forgotten.
Ongoing scanning and periodic re-testing keep your security posture current as your application and its dependencies evolve.
How We Work
Every engagement follows a structured process designed to find real, exploitable vulnerabilities and verify they are actually fixed.
We define the attack surface, critical assets and threat scenarios relevant to your application before testing begins.
Mapping endpoints, technologies and exposed services to understand exactly what is reachable from outside your organization.
Running scanners across the application and infrastructure to surface known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations quickly.
Testers manually attempt to exploit authentication, authorization, input handling and business logic the way a real attacker would.
Confirmed vulnerabilities are validated with proof of concept to demonstrate real-world impact, not theoretical risk.
Findings are documented with severity, evidence and step-by-step remediation guidance, presented in both technical and business-readable formats.
We work with your developers to implement fixes, answering questions and clarifying findings as needed.
Every fixed vulnerability is re-tested to confirm it is fully resolved before the engagement is closed out.
What Is Included
The difference between informal ad-hoc testing and structured professional QA is everything that happens under the surface. Here is what comes standard with every security testing engagement we deliver.
Client Words
Our annual penetration test usually came back clean from automated tools. Manual testing found a broken authorization flaw on one of our internal APIs that would have let any authenticated user pull another customer's account data. That alone justified the engagement.
We needed documented security testing for a HIPAA audit and expected a generic report. What we got was a prioritized list of real findings with proof of concept, and our developers fixed the critical ones within a week.
A dependency scan flagged a library with a known critical vulnerability that had been sitting in our checkout flow for months. We patched it the same day the report came in.
Questions, Answered
Most engagements range from $3,500 and $28,000 depending on the size of your application, the number of endpoints in scope and whether compliance documentation is required. A focused web application penetration test sits at the lower end; full-scope testing across web, API and infrastructure sits higher. Every quote is itemized after an initial scoping call.
A focused penetration test on a single application typically takes 1 to 3 weeks. Full-scope testing covering web, API and infrastructure, including remediation support, usually runs 4 to 8 weeks.
Yes. Every confirmed vulnerability is re-tested after remediation to verify the fix actually closes the gap rather than just masking the symptom.
Automated scanning forms part of every engagement and can run on a recurring schedule, but the highest-impact findings, like broken access controls and business logic flaws, require manual testing that automation alone cannot replace.
Yes. We configure automated security scans to run at key stages of your deployment pipeline, so known vulnerabilities and dependency risks are caught before code reaches production.
Every finding is documented with severity, affected component, proof of concept and step-by-step remediation guidance, ranked by real-world exploitability so your team knows what to fix first.
We coordinate testing windows and scope carefully so production environments are not disrupted, and any tests with potential performance impact are scheduled or run against staging environments by default.
Security testing is scoped specifically around vulnerabilities and risk, but we flag any compatibility or configuration issues we encounter that have security implications, even outside the core test scope.
We prioritize testing based on risk and exposure, focusing manual effort on the highest-value targets while automated scanning provides broad coverage across all endpoints and services in scope.
Yes. Our maintenance plans include recurring scans, periodic manual re-testing and monitoring for newly disclosed vulnerabilities in your dependencies as your application evolves.
You receive a report with every finding categorized by severity, supporting evidence, business impact and clear remediation steps, alongside an executive summary suited for stakeholders and compliance audits.
We offer ongoing vulnerability monitoring, scheduled re-testing and a direct channel for questions as your application changes. Most clients move to a recurring testing plan tied to their release or compliance cycle rather than a one-time test.
