Application Security Testing Comparison Chart

Packetlabs offers two different types of penetration testing services: Infrastructure Penetration Testing and Objective Based Penetration Testing. Our Infrastructure Penetration Testing is a comprehensive test that provides a depth-based analysis of your security defenses. The report generated from this test provides guidelines and suggestions to help your technical staff mitigate exploitable vulnerabilities. Our Objective Based Penetration Testing starts with a coverage-based infrastructure penetration test but also includes additional components to provide a more rounded assessment. While both options find weaknesses others overlook, Objective Based Penetration Testing offers a little more in terms of features and coverage. Check out our comparison chart below or learn more about Objective-based penetration testing here.

Frequently Asked Questions - Application Security Testing

Packetlabs' Infrastructure Penetration Testing methodology is 95% manual and is derived from the SANS Pentest Methodology, the MITRE ATT&CK framework for enterprises, and NIST SP800-115 to ensure compliance with most regulatory requirements.

  • How do I prepare for a web application penetration test?

    Web applications would only require the website URL and the user accounts to access the website. We always recommend testing against a non-production environment to ensure availability is maintained for your production website. No denial of service attacks are ever conducted but each application is built differently resulting in different responses to attacks. If production is your only environment, we take the proper precautions and work with your team to reduce the likelihood of any downtime.

  • Why perform security testing on web applications?

    Nearly every organization has an online footprint which often includes a web application, data breaches and hacks are all over the news each and every week, when it comes down to business securing your online presence means protecting your brand. Web application security testing is performed to help identify security weakness, ideally before an attacker can, and then fix the weaknesses to prevent an attacker from doing harm. Read more on 5 Reasons Why Hackers Target Your Website here.

  • What should I test in a web application?

    While ideally every aspect of a web application should be tested, realistically time and budget are two important factors. The web application itself needs to be tested for common vulnerabilities such SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS) items in the OWASP Top 10, the servers and infrastructure hosting the web application also need to be tested as the application is only as secure as the server(s) it is hosted on. Authentication and session management, payment processing and business logic are all critical areas that should be tested.

  • Why do you need credentials to the web application? Why can’t you just “hack in?”

    Assessing a web application's security involves testing the entire features and capabilities, not just if a hacker can access the application without authorization. While it is rare or nearly impossible to find a perfectly secure web application, there is no guarantee that an application’s authentication process can be hacked, or the methods might be out of the scope of the test, such as phishing users and/or developers. As such, providing testers with credentials ensure the application can be tested in its entirety.

  • Why do you need so many accounts?

    Often web applications will have more than one type of users such as a read-only or regular user and a super-user or admin. Typically a minimum of two sets of credentials for each user role is provided for testing. This allows the tester to accurately test that the vertical permission controls (e.g. preventing read up’s) and horizontal permissions controls (e.g. impersonating other read-only users) are functioning as intended.
