overview

A New Approach to Protect Your Applications

Introducing Blacklock PtaaS - Safeguard your mission-critical web applications, REST APIs and hosting infrastructure, and take control of your security posture. Implement agile pentesting and continuous vulnerability scanning - schedule scans to run on a regular basis, in-line with your CI/CD pipelines or trigger ad hoc as and when you need them. Create tickets as vulnerabilities with one click, while our reports prioritise each vulnerability with a risk score, criticality rating and remediation code for developers, allowing your team to quickly action and resolve findings.
methodology

Our approach to comprehensive assessment

Scoping & Target Specification

We engage with you to set the scope of the penetration test. Once the scope is locked in, you specify the target URLs, technology stack, scan frequency and optionally add authentication details to kick off vulnerability scanning.

Optionally, you can upload a URL list for targeted scanning or simply use our purpose-built Record & Scan browser plugin to capture authentication cookies for pages behind a login.

Application Vulnerability Scanning

The vulnerability scanning process can be triggered immediately with the “Scan Now” button or scheduled for non-business hours. We use a multiple tool approach - both open source and commercial - to cover maximum attack surface area and minimise false positives. The results are delivered in real-time as each tool is completed. Optionally, you can configure, pick and choose the tools you want to run against the target.

Manual Penetration Testing

We identify and exploit application-related vulnerabilities from a hacker's perspective using Black and Gray box testing. By intercepting and manipulating parameters, hidden fields, HTTP requests, and API endpoints, we review all application functionality to uncover weaknesses in the design and implementation of security controls. Each entry and exit point of the application is thoroughly analysed to detect legacy and inherent platform vulnerabilities. Our methodology follows leading industry security standards  OWASP and OSSTMM.

Reporting & On-Going Support

We deliver three actionable reports with remediation code for your developers, management and your customers. You update the vulnerability status on the Blacklock dashboard as your team progresses remediation of vulnerabilities, and we perform the retest on the go.

Continuous Vulnerability Scanning

The initial penetration test cycle isfollowed by recurring or scheduled automated vulnerability scanning, across application and infrastructure layers, to keep you informed of newly discovered vulnerabilities and stay in compliance with standards such as PCI, ISO 27001, SOC-2, HIPAA, GDPR.


Results inform your own remediation and assurance processes, satisfy board reporting requirements, and ultimately reduce the risk of customer PII or other sensitive data breach - ensuring the integrity of your business reputation and web applications.

Static Code Analysis
Static code analysis is one of the most effective ways to root out the vulnerabilities in applications and remediate their underlying security flaws. Early and frequent scanning allows for faster vulnerability discovery and resolution, and results in a more secure application delivered to customers or end users. Early remediation of security issues can prevent costly development delays.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between Web Application Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Scanning?
Plus Icon

A vulnerability scanning or assessment is fully automated, triggering multiple security tools against the target. The results are fully dependent on the tool output and can contain false positives. The penetration test is executed by our certified security consultants in a controlled environment. This simulates real-world attacks to exploit vulnerabilities, offering in-depth testing of all features, including the validation and elimination of false positives.

What types of vulnerabilities are typically tested in web application penetration testing?
Plus Icon

Common vulnerabilities tested include injections, scripting attacks, business logic vulnerabilities, authentication and access control checks, IDOR, error handling, security misconfigurations and many more as defined by the standards such as OWASP Top 10 and OWASP ASVS.

Our team identifies and exploits each application-related vulnerability from a hacker’s perspective. We review application functionality by interception and manipulation of parameters, hidden fields, HTTP requests and API calls to identify and exploit weaknesses in both the design and implementation of security controls. Entry and exit points of the application are closely analysed to discover legacy software and inherent platform vulnerabilities.

How long does a web application penetration test typically take?
Plus Icon

The duration varies depending on the application's size and complexity, with a standard test typically ranging from one day to two weeks. Larger or highly complex applications may require additional time.

What access will you need to perform the testing?
Plus Icon

Testing can be conducted with black-box, grey-box, or white-box approaches. Depending on the chosen mode, access requirements may include application credentials, API keys, or detailed architectural documentation.

Can I get started with just vulnerability scanning and purchase penetration test when I need it?
Plus Icon

Absolutely. The platform allows you to run vulnerability scans before and after the penetration test is completed. Pen Testing is more than a one-off activity.
