Penetration Testing

Client-side Application Penetration Testing

A client-side application is defined as any code designed to run on your customer’s workstation. This could be an agent, browser extension, thick client, thin client, or another type of binary designed to be executed locally.

What Happens During a Client-side Application Pen Test?

A client-side application consists of any code designed to run on a customer’s workstation—more specifically, this could be an agent, browser extension, thick client, thin client, or another type of binary executed locally.

Improve Your Security Posture

There can be multiple paths to getting data into and out of an application. Understanding the security concerns with this flow are important. Network traffic will be proxied and reviewed. Additionally, we’ll review the host for any new vulnerabilities introduced after installing the application.

Validate Your Development Process

Insecurely developed client-side applications could introduce vulnerabilities onto the device that is running the application—a penetration test would help identify these weak spots if they exist in your processes.

Schellman’s Client-side Application Penetration Testing Methodology

Generally, we test client-side applications for a variety of security concerns which include but are not limited to the installation procedures, binaries, memory, and execution at run time. Depending on how your client-side application is configured, some aspects of our Web Application and/or API testing methodology could also become relevant.
