Our Methodology
Reconnaissance
The first phase of our AppSec testing process involves gathering information about the target system, network, or application. We’ll work with you and your team to define the rules of engagement, understand the application’s functionality, and map the attack surface. This step is crucial to the success of the engagement.
- Scoping Call
- We’ll define project objectives, timeline, and scope (systems, networks, or applications)
- Rules of Engagement (RoE)
- We’ll define boundaries, limitations, and establish escalation procedures
- Reconnaissance Execution
- SecVuln™ will conduct OSINT and passive information gathering to uncover critical details about the target app and inform our approach
Assessment
The second phase of our AppSec testing solution involves a manual, dynamic, and static review of the application from an adversary’s perspective. While automation has its place, our manual-first approach allows us to adapt to any environment and provides a level of thoroughness unmatched by automation tools. This hands-on approach reduces the likelihood of false positives and enables us to operate like a sophisticated threat actor (APT), resulting in a more comprehensive assessment.
- Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)
- Static Application Security Testing (SAST)
- As part of our testing procedure, SecVuln™ will examine the application’s source code to identify security vulnerabilities and weaknesses without running the application. This is a proactive measure to verify thoroughness and identify weaknesses that may be too complex to locate via DAST alone
- Documentation Review
- This step involves examining an application’s documentation such as architecture diagrams, API specs, and configuration files which may indicate security gaps, inconsistencies, and misconfigurations.
Documentation
The final phase of our AppSec testing process involves compiling our findings into a comprehensive report, which undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure excellence. Our reports provide a detailed account of observations, remediation steps, and industry-best-practice guidelines, as well as metrics that highlight strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. By acknowledging both vulnerabilities and positive practices, we empower your team to build on their successes and foster a culture of secure coding throughout your organization. Our report serves as a valuable resource, guiding your application security team toward continued growth and excellence.
