SecureSky's Application Security Assessment is a manual security testing service for web-based applications and related infrastructure. The assessment methodology is based on established frameworks including OWASP testing guide, NIST 800-115, and the OSSTMM Web Application Methodology. The service uses multiple threat intelligence sources to test against real-world attack vectors, with a dynamic testing process that targets logic flaws, unpublished exploits, and application-specific risks. Rather than relying on automated scanning alone, analysts manually identify and validate vulnerabilities in both the application layer and infrastructure, eliminating false positives. Areas reviewed during the assessment include: - Configurations - Authentication - Input validation - Authorization - Session management - API services - Content and data streams When vulnerabilities are identified, the service determines exploitability and produces detailed reports with root cause analysis and remediation recommendations aligned to best practices and regulatory requirements. Remediation support is provided, and findings are retested to validate that fixes have been applied correctly. The service also includes a knowledge-sharing component, where SecureSky works directly with client DevOps teams to educate on secure coding practices and secure application deployment, with the goal of integrating security into the SDLC.
