Web Site Security Assessments

If you are responsible for developing a web application, hosting a web application and/or owning a web application you need to be aware of security issues that can impact your business. Any web application that offers input fields is very susceptible to a variety of exploits designed to trick the back-end database to divulge information. A multitude of attacks such as cross-site scripting or SQL injections can force a database into revealing information about the web server configuration or divulging sensitive information from the database. Such attacks create a tremendous liability for the web application developer and/or the web application owner if the database divulges sensitive information such as financial data, credit card numbers, social security numbers, social insurance numbers or other personally identifiable information.

Web application security assessments involve complex code hacks and queries of your web application. While a web application security assessment is very valuable in providing insight as to the vulnerabilities of your web site, remediation of the identified vulnerabilities as well as a code review of the web application code is highly recommended.

ÜberGuard’s expert staff will assess your site using a variety of hacking techniques through automated tools as well as complex manual hacking. ÜberGuard’s web site security assessments are based upon the OWASP Top Ten methodology.
