Application Penetration Testing

Find and fix security vulnerabilities before attackers do.

Application Penetration Testing

Simulate Attacks, Strengthen Security

Cyber threats to software evolve every day, and attackers constantly seek weaknesses in applications. Application Penetration Testing by FossID simulates real-world attack scenarios to identify vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. Our expert security engineers assess your application’s security posture, uncovering critical flaws and providing clear remediation steps to strengthen your defenses.

Deep Security Testing

Deep Security Testing

Our Application Penetration Test is a deep security assessment that evaluates both frontend and backend components, APIs, and external integrations. We systematically identify vulnerabilities such as injection flaws, authentication bypass, and improper access control to help you secure your application against real-world threats.

Common Use Cases

Software Engineering Teams

Improve your Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) with external security validation.

Acquisition & Due Diligence Teams

Assess security risks before finalizing a software acquisition.
