What is web application penetration testing?

Web application pen testing is a structured security evaluation of web apps. It focusses on identifying weaknesses, including flaws in application logic, configuration issues, and underlying technologies. This helps to expose potential entry points that could be used by hackers to compromise data or functionality. Our security specialists replicate real attack scenarios to assess how your application behaves under threat.

We blend advanced AI tools with in-depth manual analysis to uncover meaningful security insights across your applications. We thoroughly review application workflows, integrations, and code paths to detect vulnerabilities. Web app pentesting service keeps your application secure against several online threats.

Compliance Readiness

Supports regulatory obligations by validating security controls and industry compliance.

Infrastructure Exposure

Uncover weaknesses introduced through configuration changes or system updates.

Vulnerability Discovery

Reveals exploitable flaws in application logic and access paths before they can be abused.

Policy Validation

Tests the effectiveness of existing security policies against real-world attack scenarios.

Our web application penetration testing service can help you with

Any organisation that depends on web-based platforms to operate, manage data, or engage users faces ongoing exposure to cyber risks. From transactional platforms and regulated industries to service-driven enterprises, online applications remain a prime target for evolving attack methods. Proactive web application security testing of applications identifies security weaknesses before they lead to disruption or loss.

We address vulnerabilities early and ensure businesses can reduce the likelihood of breaches. Whether you’re scaling a digital product or managing complex enterprise systems, regular web app security testing can safeguard your digital ecosystem.

Application Security Testing

Our web application pen testing covers in-depth analysis of application logic, authentication flows, and user interactions to identify exploitable weaknesses.

Infrastructure & Configuration Review

Coding Sprint experts assess your public-facing components, integrations, and configurations to detect exposure points across the application environment.

Remediation & Risk Advisory

We prioritise guidance to help your development and security teams address issues and strengthen long-term resilience.

We implement OWASP web application penetration testing methodology

Our testing methodology is aligned with the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) framework. We ensure your application is evaluated against globally recognised standards. Each website penetration testing assessment follows a structured, risk-driven approach mapped to the OWASP Top 10 categories. We validate findings through automated and manual testing to uncover vulnerabilities.

Access Control Weaknesses

Our experts verify permission models to prevent unauthorised access to data.

Injection Vulnerabilities

Input validation to reduce and eliminate code or database injection attacks.

Security Misconfigurations

Assessment of application and environment settings that could increase exposure to exploitation.

Authentication & Identity Failures

Check authentication flows, session handling, and access controls for weaknesses.

Logging & Monitoring Gaps

Evaluate security logging and monitoring to identify and investigate threats.

Cryptography & Data Protection

Evaluation of encryption mechanisms used to safeguard sensitive data at all times.

Insecure Design Patterns

We review architectural and workflow decisions that lead to system security weaknesses.

Outdated or Vulnerable Components

Identification of insecure third-party libraries, frameworks, and dependencies.

Software & Data Integrity Risks

Validate and update mechanisms, dependencies, and integrity controls to prevent tampering.

Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

Testing of server-side requests to eliminate the risks of malicious attacks.

How often should web application penetration testing be performed?

The ideal testing frequency depends on:

How critical is your application?
How often does the system change?
Any regulatory obligations you must meet.

Regular testing ensures new vulnerabilities are identified as your application evolves.

Penetration testing is strongly recommended, at least once per year and after major feature releases or architectural changes.

What is the difference between vulnerability scanning and web application penetration testing?

How much does web application penetration testing cost?

What types of web applications can be tested?

Will penetration testing disrupt live systems?

Penetration testing is designed to be controlled and non-disruptive. We plan carefully to minimise impact on availability and performance, especially for production environments.
