Do you have a website or SaaS that processes user data?
Web applications play a fundamental role in organizations. They are complex constructs, mixing various forms of technology, and providing an interactive front for others to use, whether internally or externally. Any website that processes, transmits, or stores data on its site is at risk of damage to business functionality and compromised data.  Â
Our penetration testers mimic the real-world adversaries by scanning the web app’s custom code for any vulnerabilities, interpreting the results, and then attacking the gaps with manual techniques and human intuition.  Â
