Web Application Security Testing India — OWASP Top 10 Assessment

eShield Consulting delivers professional web application security testing services across India. Our certified web application penetration testers identify vulnerabilities in your web applications before attackers exploit them — covering OWASP Top 10, business logic flaws, authentication weaknesses, and API security issues.

Our Web Application Security Testing Services

• OWASP Top 10 Assessment — Comprehensive testing for all 2021 OWASP Top 10 categories: injection, broken access control, cryptographic failures, insecure design, security misconfiguration, vulnerable components, authentication failures, data integrity failures, logging failures, and SSRF.
• Business Logic Testing — Application-specific workflow abuse, parameter tampering, race conditions, and price manipulation testing.
• Authentication & Session Testing — Credential stuffing resistance, MFA bypass, session fixation, JWT vulnerabilities, and OAuth misconfiguration.
• API Security Testing — OWASP API Top 10 assessment covering BOLA, broken authentication, excessive data exposure, and injection.
• Source Code Review — Static Application Security Testing (SAST) for critical business applications.
• CMS Security Audit — WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, and custom CMS security reviews.

Testing Approach

We combine automated scanning with deep manual testing for comprehensive coverage. Automated tools catch known CVEs and misconfiguration patterns; manual testing uncovers business logic flaws, second-order injection, and chained exploits that scanners miss. Our testers hold eWPT, OSCP, and PNPT certifications specifically for web application testing.

Deliverables

• Executive Report — Business risk summary for non-technical stakeholders
• Technical Report — Full vulnerability details with CVSS v3.1 scores, reproduction steps, and PoC screenshots
• OWASP Compliance Certificate — Confirming assessment against OWASP Top 10
• Free Retest — One retest cycle included to validate remediations

Frequently Asked Questions

What is OWASP Top 10 and why does it matter?

The OWASP Top 10 is the globally recognised standard for the most critical web application security risks, maintained by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP). It is referenced by PCI DSS, ISO 27001, CERT-In guidelines, and most enterprise security procurement requirements as the minimum baseline for web application security testing.

How long does a web application security test take?

A single web application with 20–50 functionalities typically requires 3–5 business days for a thorough assessment. Complex applications with 100+ endpoints, APIs, and authenticated/unauthenticated surfaces may require 1–2 weeks. We provide a scope-based timeline estimate before engagement.

OWASP Top 10 Vulnerabilities We Test

eShield web application security testing covers all OWASP Top 10 2021 categories: A01 Broken Access Control — vertical and horizontal privilege escalation, IDOR, path traversal, CORS misconfigurations. A02 Cryptographic Failures — weak cipher suites, certificate issues, sensitive data in transit/at rest without encryption. A03 Injection — SQL, LDAP, XPath, OS command, and SSTI injection. A04 Insecure Design — business logic flaws, race conditions, missing rate limiting. A05 Security Misconfiguration — default credentials, unnecessary services, cloud misconfiguration, verbose error messages. A06 Vulnerable Components — CVE-mapped third-party library analysis. A07 Authentication Failures — password policy, MFA bypass, session management. A08 Software Integrity — CI/CD pipeline integrity, dependency confusion, unsigned packages. A09 Logging Failures — insufficient monitoring and alerting coverage. A10 SSRF — server-side request forgery to internal networks and cloud metadata endpoints.

Web Application Security Testing Methodology

eShield uses a hybrid manual-automated approach. Automated tools (Burp Suite Pro, OWASP ZAP, Nikto, Nuclei) provide broad coverage rapidly. Manual testing by OSCP-certified analysts then investigates business logic, authentication flows, and chained attack scenarios that automated tools miss. Our testers spend a minimum of 20 manual testing hours on a standard web application assessment — not 2 hours of automated scanning with a rubber-stamp report. All findings are verified before reporting: no false positives, no speculative findings without PoC evidence.

Secure Code Review Services

Beyond black-box testing, eShield offers white-box security code reviews for applications written in Java, Python, Node.js, PHP, and .NET. Code reviews find vulnerabilities that are invisible to dynamic testing: hardcoded credentials, insecure cryptographic implementations, SQL injection in ORM edge cases, and path traversal in file handling functions. Secure code reviews are particularly effective before major feature launches and after security incidents where root cause analysis is needed.

Industries We Serve

eShield has conducted web application security testing for organisations across: FinTech and NBFC (payment gateways, lending platforms, insurance portals), Healthcare (HMIS, telemedicine platforms, patient data portals), EdTech (LMS platforms, examination systems), Government (citizen service portals, departmental applications), E-commerce (shopping platforms, logistics tracking), and SaaS vendors seeking SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification.
