Security Assessments

Assess the security posture of your products and assets. Identify vulnerabilities, prioritize remediation efforts, and ensure compliance

What is Penetration Testing

Penetration Testing is an essential pillar of any strong cybersecurity strategy. It not only uncovers and assesses risks but also equips organizations with concrete insights into their defenses. This process is vital for understanding and effectively mitigating the ever-changing landscape of cyber threats.

The goal is to uncover vulnerabilities and weaknesses that could be exploited by malicious actors, enabling organizations to address these issues before they become a threat.

Our team of certified penetration testing professionals expertly identifies and exploits weaknesses in your digital environment, providing you with essential insights that prioritize your remediation efforts. Lootsec excels at conducting comprehensive and rigorous security assessments, offering a wide range of penetration testing services that ensure your systems are fortified against potential threats.

We empower you to strengthen your security controls, enabling you to concentrate on your core business activities with absolute confidence. With our expertise, you will effectively eliminate any cyber security blind spots, ensuring robust protection against potential threats.

Penetration Testing Services

At Lootsec we offer a variety of Penetration Testing Services

Web application penetration testing is a crucial practice that involves executing attacks on a web application—whether authenticated or not—with the goal of compromising the system, accessing sensitive data, exploiting the application’s functionalities, and uncovering vulnerabilities and gaps in best practices. This essential form of penetration testing not only meets compliance requirements but also effectively identifies vulnerabilities and strengthens the overall security posture of the environment.

We will, at the very least, verify those attack vectors:

Weak authentication and unauthorized access control
Input validation and injection attacks (SQL, XSS, SSRF, etc)
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Deserialization of data and remote code execution
Insecure configurations and permissions
File upload vulnerabilities
Business logic flaws
Denial of Service (DoS) attacks
API security
Insecure third-party integrations
Security headers and transport security (e.g., HTTPS)

Infrastructure Testing is a comprehensive security assessment of an organization’s IT infrastructure, including networks, servers, workstations, and other critical systems. By simulating real-world attack scenarios, this service evaluates the resilience of your infrastructure against potential cyber threats. The goal is to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers to compromise sensitive systems and data.

Infrastructure Testing ensures that your organization’s foundational IT systems are secure, reliable, and compliant with industry standards. It provides actionable insights to strengthen defenses and safeguard critical operations.

We will, at the very least, verify those attack vectors:

Open Ports and Services
Outdated Software and Firmware
Insecure Network Protocols
Denial of Service (DoS) Vulnerabilities
DNS Spoofing and Hijacking
Privilege Escalation
Lateral Movement
Misconfigured Services
Insufficient Segmentation

Cloud Penetration Testing is a specialized security assessment designed to evaluate the resilience of cloud-based environments against cyber threats. This process identifies vulnerabilities in cloud infrastructure, configurations, and applications to prevent unauthorized access, data breaches, and other cyber risks.

Cloud Penetration Testing ensures that your organization’s cloud environment is secure and compliant with industry standards.

With businesses increasingly leveraging cloud services for scalability and efficiency, ensuring the security of these environments is critical. Cloud Penetration Testing provides a proactive approach to safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining operational integrity in the face of evolving threats.

At Lootsec, we provide penetration testing for the Azure and AWS platforms and we will at least, verify those attack vectors:

Insecure cloud, container or orchestration configuration
Injection flaws (app layer, cloud events, cloud services)
Improper authentication and authorization
CI/CD pipeline and software supply chain flaws
Insecure secrets storage
Over-permissive or insecure network policies
Using components with known vulnerabilities
Improper assets management
Inadequate compute resource quota limits
Ineffective logging and monitoring (e.g., runtime activity)

Mobile Penetration Testing is a specialized security assessment focused on identifying vulnerabilities in mobile applications, operating systems, and associated backend services. This testing simulates real-world attack scenarios to uncover weaknesses that could expose sensitive data, compromise user privacy, or disrupt functionality. Mobile Penetration Testing ensures that mobile applications are resilient against cyber threats and adhere to industry security standards.

As mobile applications become essential to business operations and customer engagement, securing these platforms is critical. Mobile Penetration Testing provides organizations with the insights needed to protect their mobile ecosystems and mitigate risks effectively.

We will, at the very least, verify those attack vectors:

Improper Credential Usage
Inadequate Supply Chain Security
Insecure Authentication/Authorization
Insufficient Input/Output Validation
Insecure Communication
Inadequate Privacy Controls
Insufficient Binary Protections
Security
Misconfiguration
Insecure Data Storage
Insufficient Cryptography

Vulnerability Assessment

Vulnerability Assessment is a critical process for identifying, classifying, and prioritizing vulnerabilities within an organization’s systems and applications with the use of automated tools and processes. It equips organizations with a comprehensive understanding of their vulnerabilities, enabling them to effectively prioritize remediation efforts. This assessment must be conducted across various assets, including networks, servers, applications, and devices, to ensure robust security and risk management.

The characteristic features of the Vulnerability Assessment tools include the following:

Scan of specified infrastructure for known unpatched vulnerabilities
Validation of the patch management process
Identification of common system misconfigurations
Best practices recommendations

Source Code Review

Source Code Review is the systematic evaluation of an organization’s codebase to identify security vulnerabilities and weaknesses that attackers could exploit. By analyzing both custom code and third-party libraries, this process ensures that potential security flaws are addressed before malicious actors can leverage them. It is a cornerstone of a robust cybersecurity strategy, enabling organizations to proactively secure their applications and reduce risks.

This proactive approach focuses on integrating security into the development lifecycle, allowing vulnerabilities to be identified and resolved early in the process. By addressing security issues at the code level, organizations can significantly reduce the risk of data breaches, unauthorized access, and other cyber threats.

Our Source Code Review Process includes the following:

Thorough codebase evaluation: Using a combination of manual review, automated tools, and testing, we analyze code at all stages of the software development lifecycle—design, development, testing, and deployment—to ensure a holistic assessment.
Vulnerability identification: We uncover weaknesses in the codebase, including flaws in custom-developed code, vulnerabilities in third-party libraries, and potential misconfigurations. Each vulnerability is classified by severity and likelihood of exploitation, enabling organizations to prioritize remediation efforts effectively.
Remediation guidance: We provide detailed recommendations to address identified vulnerabilities. These recommendations include specific code fixes, configuration changes, and strategies for maintaining a secure codebase over time. Our team offers support to implement these measures, ensuring lasting security improvements.

Our Methodology

At Lootsec, we adhere strictly to all security standard frameworks, including OWASP, PTES, NIST, and MITRE ATT&CK, TIBER-EU to guarantee full compliance with regulatory and certification standards.

These frameworks establish our baseline for all assessments. However, we are committed to thinking outside the box and integrating our creativity and unique insights to deliver thorough and effective security testing
