Specialist web app testing and API testing
Web application penetration testing simulates the actions of a hacker to critically assesses your security vulnerabilities, weaknesses and technical misconfigurations that an attacker would target. In this way, web app pen tests allow you to act immediately, removing vulnerabilities in your web apps, whilst your business remains operational.
Testing your web applications for security flaws is an important part of maintaining secure development and operational practices, as well as meeting numerous compliance mandates. Put simply, web app pen testing is the best way to ensure you stay ahead of the hackers and keep your business protected.

Different types of web app pen testing
Authenticated
Authenticated web app testing tests the security of your web app as if an attacker has breached your external security or has phished valid user credentials. This is a detailed test which uncovers the real damage a successful cyber attack could cause to your business.
Unauthenticated
Unauthenticated web app testing shows what damage a cyber criminal could do to your business from a publicly available webpage, without having access to valid user credentials. Unauthenticated web app pen tests can discover vulnerabilities available to anyone with access to the web app, such as a login portal.
API
If your business uses a web-based API to deliver its services, then you need API pen testing. Testing your APIs in addition to your web apps is standard best practice, and combination pen tests are available to test web apps and APIs together.
Trusted by organizations around the world
We use all techniques to uncover security flaws, including static source-code reviews (SAST) and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST). By simulating an attack on a running application, DAST techniques detect security weaknesses that only happen under particular operating conditions. DAST and SAST are core components of a secure software development lifecycle (SDLC).
Target Defense penetration testers are experts in a wide range of web application technologies and use industry-standard methodologies and toolsets. Our expert web app pen testers are independently certified by international standards for penetration testing, including CREST and OSCP. We’re trusted by businesses across the world, from global enterprises to SMBs and start-ups.
