Web App Pentest

Your Web App Has
Vulnerabilities You
Don't Know About.

Every web application ships with vulnerabilities. The question isn't whether yours has them — it's whether you find them first, or an attacker does. Savadub's web application penetration testing service conducts 6 comprehensive attack modules against your application, aligned to industry-leading frameworks, to ensure no exploit is left undetected.

What's at stake in your web app right now:

  • Broken authentication exposing user accounts
  • SQL injection giving DB access to attackers
  • Insecure API endpoints leaking sensitive data
  • Privilege escalation letting users access admin functions
  • Exposed secrets in client-side code or repositories
  • Business logic flaws that bypass payment or access controls

OWASP data shows 90% of web applications contain at least one critical or high-severity vulnerability. Yours is almost certainly one of them.

The Real Problem

Developers Write Code.
Not Security Professionals.

This isn't a criticism — it's reality. The skills required to build a product are different from the skills required to attack one. Without a dedicated security testing process, you're shipping with a blindfold on.

Code Reviews Miss Attack Chains

Your team reviews code for correctness, not for how an attacker would chain vulnerabilities together across multiple components to escalate privileges or exfiltrate data.

Automated Scanners Aren't Enough

DAST and SAST tools catch known signatures. They completely miss business logic flaws, complex authentication bypasses, second-order injection, and chained vulnerabilities that human testers find.

Speed of Delivery Creates Gaps

Agile teams ship fast. Security gets deprioritised under delivery pressure. Technical debt accumulates — and security debt is the most dangerous kind.

Cloud Complexity Introduces New Risk

Serverless functions, microservices, S3 buckets, API gateways, container escapes — cloud-native architectures create attack surfaces your developers were never trained to secure.

Your Users Are Adversaries Too

Authorisation and access control failures are the #1 vulnerability class in OWASP 2023. Your users — and by extension, any attacker who compromises a user account — should not be able to access data or functions they shouldn't.

Regulatory Consequences Are Real

GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, NDPR. A breach in a non-compliant application doesn't just cost you customers — it costs you in fines, legal liability, and the years of trust you spent building.

The Solution

Comprehensive Web Application
Penetration Testing

We attack your application the way a real adversary would — methodically, creatively, and relentlessly. No automated-only scans. No checkbox compliance. Real human testers finding real vulnerabilities.

Our Methodology

6 Attack Modules.
Zero Blind Spots.

Most pentest firms test 2–3 surface areas and call it a comprehensive assessment. We run 6 distinct attack modules — each covering a different attack surface, threat model, and vulnerability class.

01

Authentication & Session Management Testing

We attempt to bypass login mechanisms, break session tokens, exploit password reset flows, test for account enumeration, credential stuffing resistance, and multi-factor authentication bypass. Broken authentication is consistently in the OWASP Top 3.

02

Injection & Input Validation Testing

SQL injection, command injection, SSTI, XSS, XXE, LDAP injection. Every user-controlled input is a potential attack vector. We test every parameter, header, and data field for injection vulnerabilities using both manual and semi-automated techniques.

03

Access Control & Authorisation Testing

Horizontal and vertical privilege escalation, IDOR (Insecure Direct Object References), broken function level authorisation, path traversal. We attempt to access every resource your application protects as users who shouldn't have access to it.

04

API Security Testing

REST and GraphQL API testing aligned to the OWASP API Top 10: broken object-level authorisation, excessive data exposure, mass assignment, unrestricted resource consumption, security misconfiguration. APIs are the primary attack surface of modern applications.

05

Business Logic Testing

The vulnerabilities automated scanners will never find. We analyse your application's intended workflows and attempt to subvert them — free tier bypass, payment manipulation, race conditions, workflow sequence breaking. These are the flaws that cause the most damaging breaches.

06

Infrastructure & Configuration Testing

SSL/TLS configuration, HTTP security headers, server information disclosure, third-party component vulnerabilities, misconfigured cloud storage, exposed admin interfaces, and deployment configuration weaknesses. The attack surface extends beyond your code.

How We Work

From Kickoff to Remediation

We don't just hand over a report and leave. We work with your engineering team through the entire process — from scoping to finding to fixing. Your application ships more secure because of this engagement, not just more documented.

Integrate with your GitHub/GitLab Attend your sprint ceremonies if needed PR review support for security fixes Free re-test after remediation Slack/Teams communication channel
01
Scoping & Rules of Engagement

We define the target scope, testing environment (staging or production), testing window, communication protocols, and emergency contacts. A signed ROE document protects both parties.

02
Reconnaissance & Asset Discovery

We map your application's full attack surface: endpoints, APIs, authentication flows, third-party integrations, cloud infrastructure, and data flows before any active testing begins.

03
Active Testing Across 6 Modules

Our team runs all six attack modules against your application simultaneously over the agreed testing period, documenting every finding with reproduction steps and evidence.

04
Report Delivery & Debrief

A detailed report lands: executive summary for leadership, technical findings for your engineering team, CVSS severity scores, and a prioritised remediation roadmap. We walk through every finding on a call.

05
Remediation Support & Retest

Your team fixes the vulnerabilities. We're available to answer technical questions during remediation. Once resolved, we run a free targeted retest to confirm every finding is closed.

Built For

Who Needs This Most Urgently

Pre-Launch Startups

You've built something people want. Before you expose it to real users and real attackers, let us find what's broken. A breach at launch can end a company before it starts.

Post-Funding Scale-Ups

Investors just gave you capital and visibility. Both attract attackers. Your technical debt and growth-speed security gaps need to be found and fixed before you scale user numbers.

Enterprise SaaS

You hold customer data at scale. A single vulnerability can compromise thousands of accounts simultaneously. Continuous security testing is table stakes at this level.

Compliance-Driven Companies

PCI-DSS requires annual penetration testing. ISO 27001, SOC 2, and HIPAA require documented security assessments. We provide the evidence your auditors need.

E-Commerce Platforms

Payment flows, customer accounts, order systems — all high-value attack targets. OWASP application security is directly applicable to your checkout and customer data protection.

API-First Products

If your product is an API, your product is the attack surface. OWASP API Top 10 coverage is the minimum standard for any API-first platform in production.
