Web Application Penetration Testing

Comprehensive Security Assessment for Web Applications

Cyberattacks on web applications can lead to threats like SQL injection, XSS and access control flaws, putting your business at risk of data breaches, financial loss and reputational harm.

CF’s approach with Web Application Penetration Testing (WAPT) proactively identifies and fixes vulnerabilities, ensuring your applications remain secure, compliant and resilient.

Key Security Challenges We Address

Weak Authentication And Access Control

Strengthen security to prevent unauthorized data access.

Injection Vulnerabilities

Identify and mitigate SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS) and CSRF risks.

Misconfigurations And Security Gaps

Detect flaws in cloud, server and application settings.

Data Exposure And Compliance Risks

Ensure adherence to industry regulations such as ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, GDPR and HIPAA.

Insider Threats And Sophisticated Attacks

Simulate real-world attack scenarios to evaluate security posture.

Our Approach

1. Information Gathering

We gather essential information about your web application, such as sub-domains and frameworks

2. Automated and Manual Testing

We apply industry leading tools and human manual testing to identify weaknesses like SQL injection, XSS, and misconfiguration.

3. Threat exploitation and Analysis

We make safe attempts at exploiting discovered vulnerabilities to see their effect on your application’s security, identify the risk and analyze

4. Detailed Security Reporting

We deliver a comprehensive report with categorizing vulnerabilities, risk scores, and actionable remediation steps.

5. Continuous Security Support

We assist your team in patching vulnerabilities and perform retesting to ensure security controls are in place.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Why is WAPT important for my business?

WAPT helps identify and fix security vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them, protecting your business from data breaches, financial losses and compliance violations.

How often should web applications undergo penetration testing?

It’s recommended to conduct WAPT at least once a year or after significant updates, new feature deployments or security incidents.

What kind of vulnerabilities does WAPT detect?

WAPT identifies critical security flaws like SQL injection, XSS, authentication issues, misconfigurations and insecure APIs.

Will WAPT disrupt my application’s functionality?

No, WAPT is conducted in a controlled manner to minimize disruptions, ensuring your web application remains operational while vulnerabilities are tested.

What happens after a WAPT assessment?

You receive a detailed report outlining discovered vulnerabilities, their risk levels, and actionable recommendations to strengthen your application’s security.
