Impervious Solutions offers the following application security solutions to meet your organizations needs:

Manual web application assessment: A type of security assessment that relies predominantly on the human element. A majority of test cases revolve around testing and evaluation a web application’s business logic to identify potential security vulnerabilities. Manual web application penetration tests are considered a more thorough and in-depth form of testing compared to automated tools, as it covers a wider range of security issues and considers the unique design and implementation of each web application.

Dynamic web application assessment (also known as Dast): A predominantly automated assessment that involves crawling a web application while simultaneously processing and testing the data. The goal of a dynamic web application assessment is to identify security vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers and to provide recommendations for improving the security of the application.

Static Code Analysis (also known as SAST) is a method of evaluating the security of an application’s source code without executing the code. The analysis is performed by automated tools that scan the code, identify potential vulnerabilities and security issues, and report on the findings. The primary goal of SAST is to find security issues early in the development process, when they are easier and less expensive to fix.

Benefits of Sast many include:

• Detecting security vulnerabilities: SAST can identify common security issues such as SQL injections, cross-site scripting (XSS), and sensitive data exposure.
• Finding security problems early: Performing SAST analysis early in the development process can help organizations catch security problems before they become expensive to fix.
• Improving development practices: SAST can help developers improve their coding practices and enforce security best practices.
• Reducing security risk: SAST can reduce the risk of security incidents by identifying and fixing vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
• Facilitating compliance: SAST can help organizations meet security and regulatory requirements by ensuring that their applications are secure and compliant.

Each of these types of web application assessments has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the choice of which type of assessment to perform depends on the specific needs and requirements of the organization. For example, a manual web application assessment may be more comprehensive and provide more detailed results, while a dynamic web application assessment may be faster, easier, and less expensive to perform, especially for large web applications. A static web application assessment may be used as a preliminary assessment to identify low-hanging fruit, or in combination with manual or dynamic assessments to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of the security of the web application.
