Web Application Security

Web applications are the most vulnerable element in any company’s IT infrastructure. Research has shown that an estimated 70% of all security breaches are due to vulnerabilities within the web application layer (attacks exclusively using the HTTP/HTTPS protocol).

Web sites need to be accessible by the public, and since security mechanisms must allow web traffic to communicate with database servers through web applications, this has resulted in little defense against knowledgeable hackers and full-scale web attacks.

AKATI’s web application and database assessments will help your company manage its risks, prioritize assets, resources, and identify issues. We analyzed each page in an effort to identify weaknesses as well analyse the following areas thoroughly:

• Authentication
• Access Control & Authorisation
• Cryptography
• Session Management
• Input & Output Validation
• Error Condition Handling & Exception Management
• Data Confidentiality
• Management Interface
• Privacy Concerns
