Broken Access Control
Horizontal and vertical privilege escalation, forced browsing and unprotected admin functionality.
Web application security
Secure the Web Applications Your Business Runs On.
In-depth vulnerability assessment and penetration testing for customer portals, internal dashboards, SaaS products and marketing platforms — with a focus on the access control and business logic flaws that scanners miss.
What we test

Common weaknesses
Issues we frequently look for
Authentication Flaws
Weak password and MFA flows, credential stuffing exposure, unsafe password reset and account enumeration.
Injection
SQL, NoSQL, command and template injection reachable through user-controlled input.
Cross-Site Scripting
Stored, reflected and DOM-based XSS leading to session theft or unauthorized actions.
Business Logic Abuse
Workflow bypass, price and quantity manipulation, replayed transactions and race conditions.
Misconfiguration & Exposure
Insecure headers, verbose errors, exposed debug endpoints, backups and sensitive data in responses.
How we test
A manual-first testing approach
- Authenticated testing across every user role in scope, so authorization is validated rather than assumed.
- Automated scanning for breadth, then manual exploitation to confirm impact and eliminate false positives.
- Application-specific threat modeling to prioritise the flows that carry real business risk.
- Chained-issue analysis: low-severity findings combined into realistic attack paths.
- Evidence-backed reporting with reproduction steps developers can follow, plus a retest after fixes.
