Security testing services deals with making sure that not only the application itself is safeguarded against vulnerabilities, but the data associated with it meets the prescribed security standards. Common vulnerabilities include SQL injections, cross side scripting (XSS), coding flaws, network loopholes etc. Security testing services not only gives us an overview about the strengths and weakness of application and its associated infrastructure, but it helps us identify preventive measures and implement them effectively.
Software Testing Services generally encompass:
Penetration Testing
Pentest aims at testing the application from an unauthorised user view that is one who does not have a valid access to the application or organisation network. Such testing makes use of known vulnerabilities to gain access; such as, password-cracking using brute force and Dictionary attacks or running modified queries, through SQL injections, against forms, to gain access to database data. Some of the most commonly used penetration testing tools used are NMap (Port scanning Tool), Nessus (Vulnerability assessment Tool), John The Ripper (Password Cracking), and Cain and Abel (Password cracking).
Network Assessment
