FAQs

• What is a web application penetration test?

  A web application penetration test is a simulated cyberattack on your web application, aimed at identifying security vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors. It combines automated tools with manual techniques to uncover flaws such as broken authentication, misconfigurations, and other weaknesses.

• How long does a web application penetration test take?

  The duration of a penetration test varies based on the size and complexity of the application. A typical test can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks, depending on the scope, depth of testing, and number of features being assessed. For a standard web application, I suggest a two week window.

• What happens after the test?

  After the test, you will receive a detailed report outlining the vulnerabilities discovered, their potential impact, the methods used to exploit them, and recommendations for remediation. If required, we can assist with retesting after vulnerabilities have been addressed to ensure your security posture has improved.
