Mitigate Successful Attacks with VerSprite’s Integrated Application Penetration Testing & Threat Modeling Process

VerSprite’s Risk-Based PASTA Threat Modeling Process

The foundation of VerSprite’s pen testing methodology is to emulate realistic attacks by a malicious actor using PASTA Threat Modeling (Process for Attack Simulation and Threat Analysis). Our risk-centric threat modeling methodology consists of 7 stages for simulating attacks and analyzing threats to the organization and application. This allows our security analysts to minimize real-world risks and associated business impact.

Different Types of Web Application Security Tests:

Manual Application
Security Testing

Real people understand attackers’ motivations better then automated tools. VerSprite conducts manual exploitation testing against web APIs in an organization’s QA environment that support use cases for the application.

Static Application
Security Testing (SAST)

Static analysis focuses on the use cases that are most impactful to an application and to the business. VerSprite’s SAST approach also allows for considerations of architectural controls and other enterprise countermeasures.

Dynamic Application
Security Testing (DAST)

VerSprite combines automation with niche, manual dynamic analysis. Our web app pen testers perform extensive dynamic analysis of applications and exposed APIs that support vital client information to validate their security posture.

VerSprite’s Approach to Web Application Security Starts with Web Application Penetration Testing & Identifying Exposed APIs

Every VerSprite penetration test exercise begins by developing a deeper understanding of the client’s organization, which allows our security analysts to design realistic threat models that reveal an attacker’s motivation and possible targets. Then, our team of pen testers identify likely attacks that can cross technologies, people, and processes to assess the strength of the countermeasures necessary to resist attacks. This process ensures the list of vulnerability remediations is made based on business impact and realistic attack vectors.

VerSprite performs an dynamic analysis and static analysis of web applications and exposed APIs that support vital client information to validate an organization’s security posture. VerSprite’s application security experts conduct manual security testing of web presence to identify application flaws around authentication, vulnerabilities from web frameworks, injection mitigation, malicious file uploads, and other types of web-based attacks.
