APPLICATION PENETRATION TEST

Your applications—whether they run in a web browser or as a standalone program on a desktop—are the gateway to your most critical data. A vulnerability can lead to a significant data breach, reputational damage, and loss of customer trust.

Our Application Penetration Testing services are designed to identify and remediate these vulnerabilities. Each assessment is conducted manually by our experienced, Australian-based testers, following industry-leading standards from OWASP and NIST.

Cloud Security Penetration Test (AWS, Azure, GCP)

As Australian organisations accelerate their migration to the cloud, the security of these environments has become a primary business concern. While cloud providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offer powerful and secure infrastructure, the shared responsibility model means that you are ultimately responsible for configuring and securing your own cloud environment.

A single misconfiguration—an overly permissive IAM role, a publicly exposed S3 bucket, or an unsecured container—can lead to a catastrophic data breach. Our Cloud Security Penetration Test is a specialised service designed to identify these critical misconfigurations in your cloud-native architecture before an attacker does.

Mobile Application Penetration Testing (iOS & Android)

Mobile applications are a primary channel for engaging with your customers, but they also represent a unique and complex security challenge. Unlike web applications, mobile apps store data directly on a user's device and interact with a wide range of platform-specific services and APIs, creating a broad and often overlooked attack surface.

A single vulnerability can lead to the compromise of sensitive user data stored on the device, interception of communications, and unauthorised access to your backend systems. Our Mobile Application Penetration Test provides a comprehensive security assessment to identify and remediate these critical risks.

Infrastructure Penetration Testing

Your organisation's infrastructure is the foundation of your operations. Securing it requires a two-pronged approach: defending your internet-facing perimeter from outside attackers, and securing your internal network against threats that have already made it past the frontline.

A single misconfigured firewall can expose you to the world, while a lack of internal security can allow a minor breach to escalate into a catastrophic one. Our infrastructure penetration tests simulate real-world attacks from both outside and inside your network to provide a complete view of your security posture.

API Security Assessment

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) are the engine of modern digital business. They power your mobile apps, connect your cloud services, and handle the critical data exchange between your business and your customers. Unlike traditional websites, APIs are designed for direct, programmatic interaction, making them a prime target for sophisticated attackers.

Because APIs expose application logic and direct data access, they are susceptible to unique and severe vulnerabilities that standard security scans often miss. A single flaw in an API can lead to a catastrophic data breach. Our specialised API Security Assessment focuses on finding and fixing these critical vulnerabilities—from broken authorisation flaws to complex injection attacks—ensuring the backbone of your business is secure.

Static Source Code Analysis

The most effective way to eliminate vulnerabilities is to find them before they ever reach a production environment. Static Source Code Analysis is a "white-box" security assessment where we examine your application's source code without executing it.

This proactive approach allows us to identify deep-seated security flaws, insecure coding practices, and architectural issues early in the development lifecycle, when they are cheapest and easiest to fix.

By integrating security analysis into your development process, you gain significant advantages:

  • Find Flaws Early: Identify vulnerabilities at the implementation stage, dramatically reducing the cost and complexity of remediation compared to finding them post-deployment.

  • Educate Your Developers: Our findings provide direct, code-level feedback to your development team, helping them learn and apply secure coding practices in future projects.

  • Comprehensive Coverage: We analyse 100% of your codebase, including complex logic paths and functions that are difficult to reach in a live testing environment.

Threat Modelling Service

Are you building security into your new applications from day one, or treating it as an afterthought? How do you identify critical security flaws in the design of a new feature, before a single line of code is even written? Do you know the true cost of fixing a vulnerability found in production versus one caught on the whiteboard?

Lean Security’s Threat Modelling service shifts your organisation's security from reactive to proactive. This isn't a standard penetration test on finished code; it is a collaborative analysis of your application's design. We help your team identify architectural flaws and potential attack paths before they become expensive and time-consuming problems to fix. This is about making a strategic investment in secure-by-design principles to build fundamentally resilient applications.
