Frequently asked questions
What are application penetration testing services?
Application penetration testing services identify vulnerabilities across web, mobile, API, and cloud applications by simulating real-world attacks. This helps uncover flaws like broken authentication, misconfigurations, and insecure integrations that could be exploited by attackers.
What is included in Astra’s application penetration testing services?
Astra’s application pentesting includes comprehensive vulnerability scanning, manual penetration testing, authentication and session management reviews, configuration analysis, and business logic testing. You also receive detailed reports, prioritized risk scoring, remediation guidance, and post-fix validation scans to ensure complete security.
Why is application penetration testing important?
Application pentesting helps prevent data breaches, downtime, and compliance issues by identifying and fixing security gaps before attackers do. It protects customer data, safeguards business continuity, and supports certifications like ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR.
What methods do you use to assess my applications’ security?
We combine automated scanning, manual pentesting, and AI-driven analysis to detect both technical and logic-based vulnerabilities. Our gray-box methodology ensures realistic testing with full contextual awareness, while every finding is manually verified for accuracy and mapped to real business impact.
How often should I perform application penetration testing? Will I get a report after the assessment?
Automated scans should run continuously or at least weekly to catch new vulnerabilities early. A full-scale penetration test is recommended annually, or after major code updates, infrastructure changes, or new app launches. You’ll receive a detailed, compliance-ready report outlining vulnerabilities, their impact, and recommended fixes.
Can Astra help fix the vulnerabilities found during testing?
Absolutely. Our experts provide clear remediation guidance, PoCs, and direct developer support. Once fixes are implemented, we perform validation rescans to confirm closure, ensuring your applications stay secure post-remediation.
