Web Application Vulnerability Scanning and Assessments are an inspection of the potential points of exploit on your web-based applications and can identify security holes.
Web Application Vulnerabilities

Injection Attacks

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Server / Security Misconfiguration

Weak Authentication

Insecure Direct Object References

Improper Session Management
Web Application Vulnerability Scanning
Find your security vulnerabilities before malicious hackers do.
Web application vulnerability scanning provides companies with the capability to discover vulnerabilities within their applications.
All of our Web App vulnerability scans go beyond international standards – such as NIST – and your test will come with a detailed final report.
Your detailed final report will include an executive summary, a listing of risk ratings, remediation recommendations, and more. A letter of accreditation can be provided upon your request.
Throughout the web application vulnerability scanning process, automated testing will be used to identify all application and business-logic related vulnerabilities.
If there’s one thing history has taught us, it’s that the rapid evolution of web applications has forced companies to adapt and evolve their security techniques at an alarming rate.
Regularly performing web application vulnerability scans and assessments can help businesses maintain their security against trending cyber threats.
And with the high internal costs of developing and implementing a proper web application assessment methodology/solution, outsourcing your web application services offers an affordable alternative.
What percentage of data breaches involved the use of stolen credentials and were financially motivated?
MainNerve’s web application vulnerability scans provide automated crawling and testing of web-based applications in order to identify vulnerabilities–which includes cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL injection. MainNerve web application vulnerability scans are designed with the overarching goal of zeroing in on OWASP Top 10 Risks, the industry standard for categorizing the most critical web app-based vulnerabilities. At the conclusion of the web application vulnerability scan, a comprehensive report will be provided to give insight into how to eliminate identified vulnerabilities.
We utilize a blend of automated scans using opensource, as well as commercial tools. The results of the scan are reviewed by a highly-skilled MainNerve cyber expert. A web application vulnerability scan (WAVS) is the discovery (spidering) of a web site, identifying potential test points within the web application and performing tests that focus on the OWASP Top 10 list of common vulnerabilities. A MainNerve WAVS will rate each vulnerability with a level of risk. No tests are performed to determine false positives. The goal of a WAVS is to identify as many potential vulnerabilities as possible.
MainNerve will prepare a final report detailing the results of the vulnerability scan. The report will, if relevant to the current project, contain the following sections:
- Vulnerability Summary
- Impact Summary
- List of Vulnerabilities by Severity
- Vulnerability
- Impact
- Remediation
- Classification
- Affected URLs
Deliverables will be provided via secure file transfer service by MainNerve. All final deliverables are shared only with approved parties.
Network penetration testing assists with the identification and examination of vulnerabilities for external, Internet-facing and internal, intranet systems. A network pen test will help determine whether an attack can exploit and compromise targeted systems. Take the next step to improving your business’ security with a network pen test.
MainNerve’s Security Risk Assessment is designed to provide you valuable information about your policies and procedures, and the safeguards you’ve implemented. We’ll help you find deficiencies in your risk management program that will allow you to set up a plan to improve it.
Web application penetration testing is designed to assess and test the state of your web-facing applications, and provide actionable remediation recommendations for enhancing your security.
Ensure that your web applications are protected from malicious cyber threat actors.
What Our Clients Say
We value our professional relationship with MainNerve. Their employees are friendly and extremely responsive. They always take care of our clients as if they were their own, while maintaining the penetration and social engineering testing. We couldn’t ask for a better Cybersecurity partner.
In 12 years of tests, you are the first company that found anything higher than a low risk. Phone and cameras were never discovered in the test, let alone accessed. Great to always get a different perspective from a test.
This is a very well written report! Very impressive!
The report looks great!
I felt the whole project was done in a professional manner.
Sheena was very kind, quick with replies, and patient with my questions. That is why I also introduced your service to other company.
All the correspondence with MainNerve was great and the staff were very professional and helpful.
I appreciate the level of detail your team incorporates into your findings.
MainNerve crew is top notch.
Working with MainNerve has been great and I look forward to a long term partnership to maintain the integrity of our operations.
We had our backs to the wall on a “government” contact with an unreasonable time frame. MainNerve team understood the gravity of the problem and made the impossible happen. We are extremely grateful.
This is the second time we have engaged MainNerve. Both times they have done a great job and I would recommend them for pen testing. They were prompt and delivered the reporting required by our customers at part of our data security program. We will certainly use them in the future.
MainNerve provided an extremely fast turn around when speed was our biggest factor. The project went smoothly and I would highly recommend them!
I would highly recommend MainNerve for all of your network system testing needs. From my initial contact, all the way through the end of the services I received, everyone I encountered was courteous, professional, knowledgeable, patient, and very helpful. As a small business owner, who’s business was shut down as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, MainNerve’s service fees were extremely reasonable making it affordable to ensure my network is secure from hackers. I will definitely be a repeat customer!! Thanks MainNerve!!
Sheena was great in guiding us though what was a new process for us. A client had asked us for a third party penn test report and she was very helpful in helping us choose the correct product and in determining the scope.
I was quite pleasantly surprised by the engagement. I think the thing I liked best about it was that everyone at MainNerve really took the time to listen and understand what we did, why we were doing it, and our business goals. It gave us confidence that we were in the right hands.
This is my second encounter with MainNerve and my experience this time was even better, which is impressive considering my first encounter was great. I definitely recommend their services for your testing needs.
Always nice to have a dependable vendor that is fully committed and reasonably priced.
This was our third time around getting penetration and vulnerability scans through Main Nerve. Transactions have always been quick and easy and all involved have been very responsive.
Always nice to have a dependable vendor that is fully committed and reasonably priced.
We were very happy with the experience and the deliverable/reporting.
A great organization to work with and true experts and professionals in the field. Their entire team was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire testing process.
It’s been a great partnership for the last 4 years. When NYDFS Cybersecurity regulation was announced back in 2017, I did not have much experience in the security fields such as risk assessment, vulnerability assessment, and Penetration testing and was not comfortable creating the plan. I was searching for information on the internet and came across multiple companies. I contacted MainNerve and they explained the process as well as their background which gave me comfort in the overall process as well as the confidence in the MainNerve team. Also, the cost was very reasonable. Going through the signing, planning, assessment, testing, and reporting, they were in constant contact with me and updated me with steps they are taking and when I can expect the next milestone. When we had delays, they were patient and worked with us. We finished all the assessment and testing in the expected time and now we just do it annually. As our IT environment expands, we increase the scope of the testing, and MainNerve has been very flexible with our plans, budget, and timing. I have introduced the MainNerve to colleagues in other companies in NY and they are also satisfied with the service.
