Certifications & Accreditations

Web app testing services refer to the processes and practices of evaluating and ensuring the quality, functionality, security, and performance of web-based applications that are done by a web testing company. Specialized testing companies or testing teams typically offer these services within software development organizations. The primary goal of web application testing is to identify and address any issues or vulnerabilities in the application before it is deployed to production and made accessible to users.

WebApplication

Security testing for web applications is the analysis of these six security concepts:

Integrity

Integrity

Integrity ensures that the information provided by web applications remains accurate and trustworthy. This means that data, both when stored and transmitted, must be protected from unauthorized modifications.

Authorization

Authorization

Authorization is about managing access and permissions for users. It ensures that users can only perform actions or access resources they are explicitly permitted to.

Confidentiality

Confidentiality

Confidentiality focuses on restricting access to sensitive data and ensuring it's only accessible by authorized users.

Availability

Availability

Availability is crucial for web applications as they must be accessible and functional at all times. It involves mitigating threats that can disrupt services.

Authentication

Authentication

Authentication is verifying the identity of users or entities interacting with the application.

Non-repudiation

Non-repudiation

Non-repudiation ensures that users cannot deny their actions within the system, providing legal protection in disputes.

Software developers need to integrate security into every software development life cycle (SDLC) step. The various stages of the process — define, design, develop, deploy, and maintain — have specific security considerations that should be considered as part of the entire lifecycle.

SecurityTesting

Our Web App Testing Services include:

Microminder offers web application testing services by performing activities such as

  • MCSL
    Password cracking
  • This service attempts to crack or guess passwords used within the web application. The goal is to identify weak or easily guessable passwords that could pose a significant security risk. By testing for password security, Microminder helps clients enhance their authentication and access control mechanisms.

Types of Web Application Tests

The three common types of web application testing

The three common types of web application testing that we usually perform are:

world

DAST is a type of software application testing that focuses on evaluating the security of a web application from the outside-in. It does not require access to the application's source code. It involves actively scanning a running web application to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses that could be exploited by hackers. It simulates real-world attack scenarios to identify issues such as input validation problems, authentication flaws, and other security vulnerabilities.DAST tools send malicious inputs and test the application's response to assess its security. These tools can be automated and are helpful for continuous monitoring of an application's security. They provide a practical assessment of an application's security posture from an external perspective.

SAST, also known as static analysis, is a type of security testing that examines the source code and binary code of a web application to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses.SAST tools analyze the source code, looking for coding practices, architectural flaws, and security vulnerabilities. Common issues include code injection, insecure configurations, and access control problems.It is used to find vulnerabilities at an early stage of development, making it an essential component of secure software development practices. Developers can address issues before they manifest in the running application.

Penetration testing, often referred to as ethical hacking, is a security assessment technique that simulates real-world attacks on a web application.The goal of penetration testing is to discover security weaknesses that may not be detected by automated tools. Testers actively seek vulnerabilities in areas like authentication, authorization, data validation, and other critical security aspects. Penetration testing provides a comprehensive understanding of an application's security posture and can uncover both known and unknown vulnerabilities. It helps organizations proactively identify and mitigate security risks.

world

SQL injection ((SQLi) is a type of web application vulnerability that occurs when an attacker is able to manipulate or inject malicious SQL queries into a web application's database. It takes advantage of poorly sanitized user inputs and can allow attackers to access, modify, or delete sensitive data stored in the database.SQL injection is a significant threat, especially for websites that store sensitive data, such as user credentials, financial information, and personal details. It can lead to data breaches and has the potential to result in financial losses and damage to an organization's reputation.

CommonApp

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is a vulnerability that allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts (usually JavaScript) into a web application, which are then executed in the context of a user's browser. These scripts can steal user data, session cookies, and perform actions on behalf of the user.This vulnerability can lead to data theft, identity theft, and damage to an organization's reputation. Users may be unaware that their data is being stolen, as the malicious scripts execute in their browser without their knowledge.

MCSL

  • - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is a type of web application vulnerability in which an attacker tricks a user into performing an action on a web application without the user's consent. This can lead to actions like money transfers, changing account settings, or other sensitive operations.
  • - CSRF attacks occur when an authenticated user is tricked into unknowingly sending an HTTP request to a web application, which is then processed as if it were a legitimate request from the user. The attacker typically exploits the user's active session or authenticated cookies to perform these actions.To defend against CSRF, web applications can use anti-CSRF tokens, which are unique values generated for each user session. These tokens ensure that the request originates from a legitimate user, and not from an attacker.

FAQs

Please identify the answer you are seeking.

Web Application Testing is the process of evaluating and ensuring the quality, functionality, and security of web applications. It involves rigorous testing to identify and address issues that could affect the app's performance.

Web App Testing is crucial for businesses because it:
- Ensures a positive user experience.
- Identifies and fixes issues before they impact users.
- Enhances the reliability and security of web applications.

Web Application Testing employs various methods, including functional testing, usability testing, security testing, performance testing, and compatibility testing to ensure the app functions optimally across different browsers and devices.

Common challenges include cross-browser compatibility, responsive design testing, security vulnerabilities, and ensuring the app's performance under various conditions.

Security testing in Web Application Testing identifies vulnerabilities and weaknesses that could be exploited by malicious actors, ensuring the app's security and the protection of user data.

To ensure a seamless user experience, businesses need to conduct usability testing, performance testing, and compatibility testing to address any issues that may affect how users interact with the web application.

Best practices include defining clear testing objectives, using a diverse range of browsers and devices for testing, ensuring data privacy compliance, and conducting regular security assessments.

No, web application testing is essential for businesses of all sizes. Cybersecurity threats do not discriminate, and all organisations can benefit from these services.

Failure to conduct web application testing can leave your web applications vulnerable to security breaches, performance issues, and compatibility problems.
