What applications can be tested?

Application testing can be performed across various platforms, including web, API, mobile, and desktop applications. Mobile and desktop applications often interact with back-end systems but also introduce platform-specific risks, all of which are considered within the assessment scope.

Web applications

Web application penetration testing is a structured approach to evaluating the security of website for vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

This process involves systematically identifying vulnerabilities that could potentially be exploited by adversaries to gain unauthorised access, compromise sensitive data, or disrupt the application's normal operations.

Regular penetration testing enables organisations to proactively uncover security weaknesses, mitigate risks effectively, and enhance their overall cyber resilience.

// The process

Our proven process to assess your defences

1

Engagement design

Using our attack surface-led approach, we work with you to design a penetration testing strategy that is unique to your organisation and encompasses any raised security objectives or concerns.

2

Analyse the attack surface

We invest time in understanding the exposed attack surface of the assessed system to identify attack vectors that present the biggest risks to your organisation.

3

Discover vulnerabilities and exploit attack paths

Our penetration testers assess the attack surface for vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, commonly exploited by real-world adversaries.

We conduct exploitation activities to identify attack paths and routes into the organisation, allowing you to visualise how a real-world adversary would breach your organisation.

4

Reporting and evaluation

All discovered findings are presented within a comprehensive and detailed Adversify penetration test report.

You'll have the opportunity to join a post-assessment discussion about the engagement, where we recap on any lessons learnt and can offer additional assurances about the security of the assessed environment.
