Web Application Penetration Testing (Web VAPT)
Web Application Penetration Testing (Web VAPT)
Web Application Penetration Testing at </Hacker4Help> focuses on identifying real-world vulnerabilities like XSS, SQL Injection, broken authentication, IDOR, and business logic flaws. Students learn hands-on testing of live web apps, APIs, frontend, backend, and how attackers actually exploit these issues.
For companies, we deliver manual, expert-driven assessments with clear impact analysis and professional reports. For students, these live projects become real experience, real reports, and strong portfolio assets that directly improve job readiness.
Web Application Penetration Tests are human-led, scope-limited engagements that aim to find vulnerabilities within web applications and application programming interfaces (APIs). These assessments will give an organisation a thorough understanding of the risk posed by their applications as well as detailed remediation guidance to ensure that the highlighted issues can be addressed and that systems can be hardened against any potential attack.
With many companies now relying heavily on web and mobile applications the impact of a security vulnerability in one of these systems can be devastating. We offer testing for web applications, covering everything from simple brochure websites to complex web applications and Application Programming Interfaces (API). This service is ideal for organisations that are worried about the exposure of their web applications to risks such as website defacement and data theft.
Application Mapping
We will review the full attack surface before continuing onto the security assessment, ensuring that we achieve both depth and scope coverage. This can include reviewing the assessment scope to ensure that no assets have been unintentionally missed from the assessment scope.
Analysis and Exploitation
Where a vulnerability is discovered our testing report will include a full breakdown of the potential for exploitation thereby removing false positives, removing the guess work from grading vulnerability risks, and giving the steps to replicate the vulnerability to ensure that your technical teams fully understand each issue.
Underlying Infrastructure Assessment
Where requested we can include the underlying external infrastructure within a Web Application Assessment. Whilst most web servers only expose HTTP(S) to the internet we can review the system to ensure no additional services are exposed as well as ensuring that the cryptographic configuration of Transport Layer Security (TLS) is appropriate for the company.
Remediation
We don’t just focus on vulnerability discovery, but we also give significant detail on remediating discovered vulnerabilities and importantly, hardening systems against exploitation.
Application Vulnerability Discovery
We review the application for the presence of a range of vulnerabilities, including but not limited to those covered by awareness documents such as the OWASP Top 10. The following list gives an indication of the types of vulnerability that can be discovered through this type of engagement:
- Business logic issues
- Broken access control
- Cryptographic failures
- Injection vulnerabilities
- Insecure design
- Security misconfiguration
- Vulnerable or outdated components
- Identification and authentication failures
- Software and data integrity failures
- Security logging failures
- Server-side request forgery
- Cross-site request forgery
- Unvalidated redirects
- Weak account restrictions
- Insecure file handling
Whether you’re looking to secure an on-prem internal network or your internet facing infrastructure services, such as email and file sharing, we can perform security testing to discover vulnerabilities and help you secure your systems. Additionally, our security testing reports will give you all of the details required to understand and remediate each issue, ensuring that you can address the discovered risks quickly and efficiently.
