Torrid Networks’ Application Security Testing Approach

Our web application security services provide a complete view of the risk being posed to the business due to the application vulnerabilities. Application security audit is conducted with the help of automated scanners, custom scripts followed by in-depth manual security testing against the application. We follow 80/20 rule while performing application security testing and carry out nearly 80% of the security testing manually and use automated tools for preliminary testing only. Manual security testing of application helps us discover all sort of complex technical and logical application vulnerabilities which otherwise are generally missed upon by automated application security scanners. Torrid Networks approach towards application security auditing is as follows:

• Information Gathering
• Application Fingerprinting
• Identifying vulnerabilities in the application
• Vulnerability validation and building test cases
• Exploiting the vulnerabilities
• Recommendations and Reporting

Web application penetration testing is done with different approaches as per the business need:

1. Black-box Testing: Testing the application without the knowledge on the application. This testing process involves simulating the attack as a normal user without having access to the source code.
2. Grey-Box Testing: Testing the application with limited knowledge on the application. This testing process involves simulating the attack with the use of user credentials or limited access to the application.
