OWASP Top 10 Coverage & Advanced Testing Methodology
Praxis-Q performs rigorous Web Application Security Testing covering the complete OWASP Top 10: injection attacks, broken authentication, sensitive data exposure, XML external entities, broken access control, security misconfiguration, XSS, insecure deserialization, using components with known vulnerabilities, and insufficient logging. Our dual-approach methodology combines automated DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) with hands-on manual penetration testing to uncover logic flaws, cryptographic weaknesses, and business-context vulnerabilities that scanners miss. API security testing—including REST, SOAP, and GraphQL endpoints—is included standard. Every finding receives CVSS severity scoring and proof-of-concept documentation for streamlined remediation.
UK Compliance & Regulatory Alignment
Web application vulnerabilities directly impact your UK GDPR, ICO, and FCA operational resilience obligations. Praxis-Q's testing framework aligns with NCSC Cyber Essentials, PCI DSS (payment card security), and SOC 2 controls, ensuring discovered flaws map directly to your compliance requirements. Our India-based security engineers maintain UK data protection standards and deliver reports that satisfy auditor expectations across financial services, healthcare, e-commerce, and public sector organizations. Regular testing cycles demonstrate ongoing security due diligence—critical for regulatory assessments, insurance underwriting, and customer trust.
Fast-Track Delivery & Actionable Remediation
Praxis-Q's standard 5–7 day engagement, with 15–20 day fast-track options, accelerates vulnerability discovery without compromising depth. Our scoping process—covering application scope, environments, authentication models, and API inventory—ensures efficient reconnaissance and targeted testing. Detailed reports include vulnerability descriptions, attack scenarios, severity ratings, and developer-friendly remediation steps. Business stakeholders receive executive summaries linking findings to business risk, while technical teams get step-by-step fix guidance and code examples, enabling swift patching cycles.
Authentication, Session Management & Business Logic Testing
Beyond baseline OWASP scanning, Praxis-Q stress-tests authentication mechanisms, session handling, token management, and role-based access controls to reveal privilege escalation and account takeover risks. Business logic testing identifies flaws in workflows, payment flows, user registration, and state validation that break application intent. Grey-box testing—conducted with limited user credentials—simulates insider threats and realistic attack progressions. This contextual approach prevents false negatives and uncovers high-impact vulnerabilities that directly threaten customer data, revenue, and regulatory standing.
