Specialised Security Testing Services

Testing methodologies that go beyond conventional approaches

API Security Testing

Comprehensive assessment of API security posture, testing against OWASP API Security Top 10

Methodology:

1. Authentication Testing

Rigorous assessment of authentication mechanisms, including JWT validation, OAuth implementations, and session management

2. Business Logic Testing

Identification of flaws in API business logic, including BOLA/IDOR vulnerabilities, data filtering issues, and workflow circumvention

3. Input Validation

Testing for injection vulnerabilities including SQL, NoSQL, command injection, and schema validation weaknesses

4. Documentation Analysis

Review of API specifications (OpenAPI/Swagger) to identify security gaps, excessive data exposure, and versioning issues

Attack Vectors Covered:
BOLA Authentication bypass Data Exposure Mass Assignment Injection Attacks SSRF Business Logic Abuse Fuzzing & Manipulation

Assumed-Breach Penetration Testing

Start where attackers land, finish where your defences fail

Identifies lateral movement opportunities, privilege escalation paths, and evaluates detection capabilities once attackers are already inside your network.
