Application Security Testing Services
The convergence of responsibility for any organization defining application security should result in an operational state where every task or test ensures that all software releases are secure.
Application Security Resources
APPLICATION SECURITY
Yesterday’s “Functional” is Today’s “Secure”
With modern software development needing to move at the speed of business, it’s no surprise that organizations are having difficulty scaling security to meet this demand without Application Security Testing (AST).
Nearly 50% of developers say they don’t have time for security in their lifecycle, despite understanding the importance of having application security solutions on their side.
Application Security Practice
Bryan Orme, Principal and Partner at GuidePoint Security, presents an overview of our
Application Security Practice and the biggest benefits of our application security testing services.
Application Security Services
Application Security Assessment
As part of our Application Security services, we offer an application security assessment that identifies, verifies and reports anything that raises the attack surface from a runtime perspective of modern applications, back-end web services or thick clients.

Mobile Security Assessment
We use real-world scenarios to simulate an adversary’s approach for attacking a mobile app or accessing sensitive data on users’ mobile devices.

Secure Code Review
Our team of Application Security experts manually inspect your source code to determine exploitability based on the unique context of your code.
Read More
Application Threat Modeling
We dive deeper than just the obvious attack paths by evaluating applications against industry best practice recommendations to ensure that an adversary can’t take advantage of threats that you didn’t consider.

Application Architecture Review
This service identifies and assesses security weaknesses due to architectural flaws in an application, with specific mitigation or remediation advice.

Secure Development Training
In this interactive course, you’ll learn how to design and code secure web solutions via defense-based code samples. You’ll also explore the use of third-party security libraries and secure design review concepts.

Application Security as a Service
We manage your AppSec program to help you implement best practices, minimize your workload, maximize your productivity, and to evolve and mature your program over time.

Application Vulnerability Scan
We help you assess your security posture by running an automated scan of your applications to identify vulnerabilities and ultimately ensure the security and resiliency of those applications.

Staying on top of application security is just one of the many moving parts that go into a full security program. GPVUE leverages our expertise across a wide range of cybersecurity disciplines to provide an integrated program that is designed specifically to meet your organization’s unique security needs. Find out how GPVUE can evaluate and improve your overall security program.
Application Security Technologies
We Have Real-World AppSec Experience
and apply a hands-on approach to application security testing services to help you implement the right technologies.
SAST (Static Application Security Testing)
Whether it’s your proprietary source code or bytecode, static analysis gives your development teams the power to reduce risk and remediate issues in the code well before an app is deployed to production.
DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing)
DAST provides internal teams with the ability to detect conditions that indicate a vulnerability that exists in your live, running applications. This testing method allows for the identification of issues that can be further manipulated or actively exploited.
SCA (Software Composition Analysis)
By integrating SCA directly into your code repositories, development teams are able to prevent the introduction of unnecessary risk by monitoring versions, known vulnerabilities with publicly available exploits, licensing and potential compliance issues surrounding the use of unsafe components across your application and container portfolio.
WAF (Web Application Firewall)
WAFs provide a front-end, web application-specific layer of defense that can monitor, filter and block signature-based traffic of known attack types. While WAFs can block attacks, they are not designed to consider the back-end.
RASP (Runtime Application Self-Protection)
RASP provides a layer of back-end protection that enables your applications to defend themselves against known and zero-day attacks, all while moving alongside the application at the speed of modern development.

Our Approach as Your Trusted Advisor
Expose any Potential Risk
We assess your existing cybersecurity posture and architecture, identify gaps and vulnerabilities and eliminate solutions that don’t work well together.
Align & Optimize Resources
We validate your policies and controls based on regulatory compliance guidelines and with adherence to best practices, as well as aligning solutions to your in-house capability.
Integrate Best-Fit Solutions
We review, analyze, compare and vet current and emerging technologies, provide recommendations on products and controls that minimize your risk, and integrate and optimize solutions to fit your needs and environment.
We Take That Approach with Every Service We Provide
Results-Oriented Application Security
Every application, environment and development team is different. In order to scale, our solutions are tailored to your specific environment and unique challenges. There are no cookie cutters or generic, canned deliverables. This approach allows us to address everything from mainframe and IoT applications, to mobile apps and web services, with a focus on quality and actionable recommendations that immediately raise the security posture for our clients.
Every member of our application security practice offers a wealth of expertise stemming from years of relevant, real-world experience within the application layer — from both strategic and tactical perspectives. This foundation of knowledge allows our customers to remain confident that the specific expertise required to assess the applications of today (and yesteryear) is behind every engagement we deliver.
Tactical Services
Ninety-two percent of web applications with security flaws can be exploited. The biggest difference between a malicious attack and a designated assessment is time. Since ours is finite, our Application Security consultants understand how to focus their testing efforts in order to maximize the coverage of an application and ensure that the most security sensitive functions and features are assessed.
We’ll provide unparalleled, actionable insight into how an adversary can currently leverage or exploit real issues or vulnerabilities in your business-critical applications. This allows our customers to not only reduce risk but also their cost to remediate. Our Application Security Assessments and Source Code Reviews apply to mobile, thick client, IoT, mainframe and web applications.
Strategic Services
Whether you admit it or not, application security forces the conversation of a change in culture, bringing together nearly every functional group for the sake of security — from compliance, IT, operations, development and security.
Our team is here to help you assess the gaps in your current development lifecycle and provide implementation recommendations meant to strengthen overall efforts and reduce risk.
It’s not just about your current state of maturity, either. It’s about helping you move the needle.
Whether it’s a gap analysis, program development, AppSec artifact creation (secure coding checklists, standards, etc.), onboarding, socialization or a unique need that doesn’t fit into a fixed offering, we are here to champion your AppSec program to help you achieve and maintain a mature application security program.
Our standard strategic services include:
