Application Penetration Testing
In recent years, web applications has grown dramatically popular, with organizations converting legacy mainframe and database systems into dynamic web applications using technologies such as PHP, Ajax, JavaScript, JSP, Java, ASP, ASP.NET, Cold Fusion, Perl, Flash and Ruby etc. These applications expose customer information, financial data and other sensitive and confidential data over the Internet and intranet. With the accessibility of such critical data, web application security testing also becomes paramount. Ensuring that web applications are secure is a critical need for companies today.
iViZ's on demand application testing platform performs various types of application penetration security audits including web application security Testing, SAP audit, or other customized system audit. iViZ Security uses both black box and white box testing methodology. Enterprise application security being critical to organizations, iViZ Security allows organizations to significantly improve overall security software and reduce risk to the organization in a way that compliments the web application security infrastructure and process they currently have in place.
How Web Application Pen Testing works?
Web Application Penetration Testing is carried out from iViZ Security SOC (Security operations center) remotely over the Internet using our patent-pending technology. The section below details the methodology used in the application security testing process.
iViZ's application penetration test provides a customized, comprehensive, impartial, and periodic security assessment of various kinds of applications - internally developed, commercial enterprise web applications (Web-based portal, e-commerce application, or Web platform), open source applications, dynamic web 2.0 applications etc., This service provides a well-developed matrix of existing threats, application vulnerabilities, and real-world recommendations to address security weaknesses. In addition, iViZ conducts expert validation for vulnerabilities that cannot be identified through automated means.
Internal Application Testing
To test internal applications, a proxy server (web proxy) may be set up at the customer site to act as an intermediary for requests from the iViZ Security scanning servers and test center. The iViZ Security penetration testing servers connect to the proxy server, requesting services, such as a connection, web page, or other resource, available from an internal web application server. Comprehensive testing of internal web applications can be quickly, easily and securely performed in this manner.iViZ Security Methodology
The assessment methodology includes structured review processes based on recognized “best-in-class” practices as defined by such methodologies as the ISECOM's Open Source Security Testing methodology Manual (OSSTMM), the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), and ISO 27001 Information Security Standard. The following application security attack vectors are tested during this exercise:

- No Installation Overheads
- No Software/Hardware Expenses
- No Maintenance: 100% Remotely Managed.
- Subscription Based Cost Effective Solution.
Comprehensive & Accurate Testing.
iViZ Security's solution has a comprehensive application security vulnerability database. It performs vulnerability detection by simulating hacker attacks such as Cross-Site Scripting; HTTP Response Splitting; Parameter Tampering; Hidden Field Manipulation; Backdoors/Debug Options; Stealth Commanding; Forceful Browsing; Application Buffer Overflow; Cookie Poisoning; Third-Party Misconfiguration; Known Vulnerabilities; HTTP Attacks; SQL Injections; Suspicious Content; XML/SOAP Tests; Content Spoofing; LDAP Injection; XPath Injection; Session Fixation , automatic intelligent form filling.
Get Exhaustive and In-Depth Security Coverage With Expert Validated Testing
iViZ Security Automated application testing solution surpasses conventional manual testing process by finding out all possible attack paths, but some complex logical vulnerability require expert validation. To provide exhaustive & accurate web application testing coverage, iViZ Security incorporates expert validation of test results. This expert also separately carries out manual testing to explore security issues deeper into your network. A combination of automated testing further validated and scanned deeper by an expert provides in-depth and intelligent web application security test coverage and prioritized remediation recommendations.
Flexible Reporting For Effective Remediation
iViZ Security provides comprehensive reports designed for management, developers, QA engineers, system managers and security professionals, providing them full visibility & control of their security testing needs. The reports are customizable so that users have full control of content and layout.
Monitor Trends With Test Audit History
iViZ Security can store your previous test history data providing you with rich trend intelligence information to help manage your security posture effectively. Succeeding audits highlight the remediation status reported in earlier audits along with their severity levels. This helps keep track of security activities and find clues of possible attacks.
Who should conduct Application Security Assessment?
Web Application Security Assessment is highly recommended for organization that relies on :
- Off-the-shelf products (operating systems, applications, databases, networking equipment etc.)
