penetration test is crucial to proactively ensure the security of your online services. Web applications are very often accessible from the internet and therefore a prime target for cyber attacks. Vulnerabilities can have an impact deep into the underlying systems (e.g. remote code execution). Even a single, undetected vulnerability can therefore have serious consequences – from data loss and reputational damage to legal consequences.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”top-bottom” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in-from-bottom” animation_easing=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” delay=”100″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1771935241798{padding-right: 10% !important;}” text_direction=”default”]Targeted testing in accordance with established standards such as the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) allows potential points of attack to be identified and eliminated at an early stage before they are exploited by real attackers. This not only increases technical security, but also strengthens the trust of customers, partners and supervisory authorities.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][divider line_type=”No Line”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”90px” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” bottom_padding=”5%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=”” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][split_line_heading line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”default” font_style=”h3″ text_color=”#123043″ content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” link_target=”_self” text_content=”Common vulnerabilities in web applications” max_width=”520″ text_direction=”default”][\/split_line_heading][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1771934496235{padding-right: 10% !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n

Web applications often have recurring vulnerabilities that can allow attackers to access confidential data or manipulate functions. These vulnerabilities are often caused by a lack of secure coding specifications, insufficient validation or incorrect configurations.
