How does Web App Ethical Hacking work?

Web App Ethical Hacking Testing works by simulating real-world cyberattacks on web applications. Ethical hackers employ various techniques to identify vulnerabilities, such as manual testing and automated scanning tools. By mimicking attacker behaviours, potential weaknesses are discovered and reported for remediation. Our ethical hackers will test against the OWASP guidelines, not just the 'top 10'.
