Data on the Internet has always been prone to hacking, and with the expansion of the webspace, hackers have more options to break into your website or locate a vulnerability through which they may hack into your site. Regular internal and external penetration testing is the unerring strategy to protect your business against data breaches and attackers.
The safest and most cost-effective technique for combating web application vulnerability in cyber security would be to include web app penetration testing as part of your Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) process.
Hackers are always on their quest to steal your information. You need experts to beat the cyber criminal's mindset. We at RSK cyber security help businesses with our expertise tailored with the following:
Web application penetration testing can help you identify weaknesses existing in your digital infrastructure. It can uncover the loopholes in your applications to protect the open sensitive data from potential attacks. The pen testing will help you intensify the security policies by stressing the areas that require improvement.
The servers that you work on namely, routers, DNS, and even firewalls are not static. Every time you require any change, you have to accommodate new connections along with adjusting the traffic filters. These changes are sometimes made in isolation leading to the rise in unintended breaches. Web application pen testing will examine your infrastructure and help you look for such vulnerable areas.
Web application pen testing can also help in identifying the delays in the app load and response times (if there are any). You can evaluate the performance and patch the areas with the right approach where it is required the most.
Your data is the most indispensable asset your company possesses. Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are the gateway for a hacker or data breacher.
When an error occurs in an API, it impacts all applications that rely on that API. This is why API security testing is so critical for your business. The most crucial factor to consider is real data loss or destruction, which may generate a slew of issues for your firm. Data recovery is a costly and error-prone operation that will cost you more than just time and money.
An untested API might result in:
APIs allow apps to share data with one another. A hacker who breaks API security might gain access to sensitive data stored on your website.
Customer Data Loss
Website Defacement
Revenue decline
Lawsuits
Data Tempering
