A penetration test is a sanctioned assault on your organization’s electronic assets and data. If the attack is repelled, you win. If the attack successfully breaches your defenses, technically you also win – as you’ve now got the chance to fix those vulnerabilities before a real attacker tries their luck. Given the complexity of a modern enterprise, a pen test can evaluate a wide range of assets, networks, systems, and apps on premises, mobile, and in the cloud.

During a recent customer assessment, our pen testers discovered a critical vulnerability that exemplifies the importance of manual and continuous pen testing. The issue involved a feature intended for administrators, allowing them to send messages to a “broadcast” endpoint, which would then be displayed in a modal pop-up box for all logged-in users of the web application. However, our pen testers found that this functionality was accessible to any user, regardless of their role.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks pose a significant security threat by infiltrating an application’s input fields with malicious code snippets. When users access the affected pages, this code is executed in their browsers, putting their sensitive information at risk. The malicious content injected into the web browser can take various forms, including JavaScript, HTML, Flash, or any other executable code.

Problems arise when teams are too siloed. In the past, organizations ran into trouble when Development teams would hand over finished code with security problems to IT Operations to deploy and manage. They realized it was faster and more effective to work together throughout the product lifecycle in a DevOps model, picking up on issues and resolving them as they went in an agile way of working.

Penetration testing is an effective way to detect flaws in your application before they turn into a serious threat, helping you better understand the applications attack surface. But in the always-on economy there comes a problem - traditional pen testing delivery takes weeks to set up and the results are point in time, which leaves critical application vulnerabilities exposed longer than it should - given the average time for a threat actor to weaponize a new vulnerability is only 7 days.
