In today’s digital age, web applications are at the forefront of business operations. However, they are also prime targets for cyberattacks. At GS2 Cyber Security, our Web Application Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) services are designed to identify and fix security flaws in your web applications before attackers can exploit them. From SQL injections to cross-site scripting (XSS), we help ensure your web applications are secure, functional, and trustworthy.
Web Application VAPT is a specialized service that evaluates the security of your web applications. The process involves two main components:
Vulnerability Assessment (VA): This step involves scanning your web application for known vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and coding errors that could be exploited by attackers.
Penetration Testing (PT): This phase involves simulating real-world attacks to assess how well your application can withstand malicious activity, ensuring that even unknown vulnerabilities are identified and addressed.
Together, VAPT helps provide a comprehensive security review to safeguard your web assets from cyber threats.
Web applications are increasingly becoming the primary target for cybercriminals due to their accessibility via the internet. Any weakness in their design, code, or architecture can result in significant security risks. Common vulnerabilities like SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Broken Authentication, and Sensitive Data Exposure can expose sensitive data, compromise users, and damage your brand reputation.
A Web Application VAPT is a proactive measure that helps identify these weaknesses and provides solutions to eliminate them, enhancing your application’s security and protecting your users from potential data breaches.
At GS2 Cyber Security, we follow a thorough, multi-step process to ensure your web application is secure:
Reconnaissance
We begin by gathering information about your web application’s infrastructure, technologies, and publicly available data. This helps us understand the attack surface.
Vulnerability Scanning
Our automated tools scan your application for known vulnerabilities, such as outdated software, unpatched plugins, and weak encryption protocols.
Manual Penetration Testing
Our team of cybersecurity experts simulates real-world attacks to identify potential entry points, business logic flaws, and misconfigurations that automated tools might miss.
Risk Assessment
We evaluate the severity of each vulnerability found, analyzing the potential impact on your business operations and data security.
Remediation Guidance
Once vulnerabilities are identified, we provide a detailed remediation plan, including patching instructions and security best practices, to mitigate the risks and ensure long-term protection.
Re-Testing and Validation
After fixes are implemented, we perform a re-test to ensure that the vulnerabilities have been successfully addressed and that no new issues have been introduced.
SQL Injection
Malicious input is used to manipulate databases and steal or delete data.
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
Attackers inject malicious scripts into your application, compromising the security of users.
Broken Authentication
Insecure authentication systems allow unauthorized users to gain access to sensitive data.
Sensitive Data Exposure
Weak encryption or improper handling of sensitive data, leading to data breaches.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Attackers trick users into performing unintended actions on a web application.
Security Misconfiguration
Incorrect configurations or unpatched systems that leave your application vulnerable.
