Securing Web Applications
Web applications form the backbone of modern business processes—whether in e-commerce, customer portals, or internal applications. Their constant availability makes them an attractive target for attackers. Therefore, it is essential to regularly check web applications for vulnerabilities.
A structured approach is based on the OWASP Testing Guide, which has become an international standard for web application security. This guide covers all relevant testing methods—from authentication and input validation to session management. By systematically applying it, security gaps can be identified early and efficiently remediated.
Especially for complex applications with extensive logic, third-party components, or APIs, it is advisable to conduct a source code analysis (white-box testing) in addition to black-box testing. This identifies security-critical code sections, uncovers logic errors, and provides a holistic view of the interaction between the application and the infrastructure. The combination of penetration testing and source code review offers maximum transparency and security.
