WHAT IS APPSEC RISK ASSESSMENT AT ARGON CYBER SECURITY?
Our AppSec Risk Assessment is the gold standard for safeguarding web and mobile applications. At Argon, we take security to the next level by conducting in-depth assessments, going well beyond the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. What sets us apart? We employ ASVS (Application Security Verification Standard) Levels 1, 2, and 3 to rigorously scrutinize your applications. But it doesn’t stop there – we’re committed to ensuring you’re aware of the real-world risks. That’s why, after identifying vulnerabilities, we construct threat scenarios that not only explain the findings but also show how attackers could exploit them.
HOW DOES IT WORK ?
INITIAL CONSULTATION
We begin by understanding your unique goals and requirements.
KICK-OFF MEETING
Start of a project, meeting with a team, an application demo.
ASVS-POWERED TESTING (SAST & DAST)
We apply ASVS Levels 1, 2, and 3 to rigorously evaluate your application’s security.
REAL-WORLD THREAT MODELING
We begin by understanding your unique goals and requirements.
PRESENTATION
We’ll present our findings before the full report, explaining key vulnerabilities and related threat scenarios.
DETAILED REPORT DELIVERY
You receive a comprehensive report with actionable remediations for found issues.
TESTING PHASES .
Planning & Preparation
-
Scope Definition: Identify the web and mobile applications, APIs, and environments to be tested.
-
Goals Setting: Define what we aim to uncover — vulnerabilities, insecure configurations, or logic flaws.
-
Rules of Engagement: Determine testing method (black-box, gray-box), test accounts, timelines, and legal considerations.
Reconnaissance
-
Passive Discovery: Collect public information about the application, domain, and technologies used.
-
Technology Fingerprinting: Identify frameworks, CMS, libraries, and components in use.
-
Endpoint Mapping: Discover all reachable pages, APIs, and input fields using crawlers or manual exploration.
Vulnerability Testing
-
Automated Scanning: Run industry-grade tools to detect known vulnerabilities (e.g., SQLi, XSS, insecure headers).
-
Manual Testing: Perform manual validation and advanced checks for logic flaws and bypass techniques.
-
Authentication & Session Testing: Analyze login, session management, and authorization controls.
-
Input Validation: Check all user inputs for injection flaws, encoding issues, and improper filtering.
-
File Upload & Storage Testing: Review upload features, file parsing, and storage handling.
Business Logic & Access Control
-
Role Abuse & Privilege Escalation: Test what users can do vs. what they should be able to do.
-
Workflow Manipulation: Try to break or shortcut intended app flows.
-
Horizontal & Vertical Access Tests: Verify if users can access or manipulate others' data.
Reporting
-
Executive Summary: High-level overview of vulnerabilities, their impact, and risk level.
-
Technical Findings: Detailed breakdown of each vulnerability, with reproduction steps.
-
Remediation Guidance: Concrete steps to fix the issues and improve security posture.
