Web Application Security Testing and Vulnerability Assessment
Web Application Security Testing is a process by Shieldbyte Infosec that involves assessing and evaluating the security of web applications to identify vulnerabilities, weaknesses, and potential threats that malicious actors could exploit. The goal of web application security testing is to proactively uncover and address security issues in web applications before they can be exploited, thereby reducing the risk of data breaches, unauthorized access, and other cyberattacks.
Web application security testing helps organizations identify and address vulnerabilities, enhance their security posture, comply with industry regulations, and protect sensitive data. It is an integral part of the software development life cycle (SDLC) and should be conducted throughout the web application development and maintenance stages.
