Authorization testing
Object-level and function-level access control probed across every role and tenant boundary — the flaw class behind most real API breaches.
Cybersecurity · Security Testing
Your APIs outnumber your pages — attackers noticed
Modern products expose more logic through APIs than through any UI, and API flaws — broken object-level authorization, mass assignment, unbounded queries — don't show up in web scans. We test APIs the way they're attacked: as programmable business logic.
Independent quality engineering & cybersecurity since 2020 — 100+ security & quality engineers, delivering on platforms we build and run ourselves.
API breaches are quiet and complete: no browser, no alarms, just enumerable IDs and data leaving at machine speed. By the time misuse shows in metrics, the dataset is already gone.

What we do
Input & injection testing
Injection classes, deserialization, and schema-validation gaps across REST, GraphQL, and event endpoints.
Business-logic abuse
Rate limits, workflow bypasses, replay, and enumeration — attacks that are valid HTTP requests but invalid business actions.
Auth & session review
Token handling, JWT validation, key management, and session lifecycle — where one mistake is total compromise.

Evidence
300+ APIs, one program
We ran a structured security assessment across 300+ endpoints — authentication, authorization, rate limiting, and injection classes — with findings ranked by exploitability.
Customer success →Engagement
Ways to engage the same senior bench
Buy it as a scoped project, embed it in your team, or run it as a managed service — same engineers, same governance, whichever shape fits.
Point-in-time assessment
A scoped, one-time assessment with a full report and one retest — for a release gate, a customer or audit requirement, or an annual baseline.
Standing program
Recurring assessment cycles aligned to your release cadence, with retesting each cycle so the evidence stays current across surveillance audits.
On-demand scope additions
Add an application, API, or environment to an existing program without re-contracting — scoped and started in days, not procurement cycles.
Who this is for
- Platform teams whose public API is the product
- Companies whose last web pentest barely touched the API surface
- Teams shipping mobile or partner integrations backed by shared APIs
Common questions
Do you test against the OWASP API Top 10?
Yes — the assessment is structured around the OWASP API Security Top 10, with particular focus on broken object- and function-level authorization, the flaw class behind most real API breaches.
What about our undocumented endpoints?
API discovery works from specs and live traffic, so shadow and internal endpoints exposed by frontend scripts are mapped and tested, not just the documented surface.
Is retesting included?
Yes. Remediation of reported findings is verified and the report updated to 'remediated and retested' — the wording auditors expect. Retest scope and window are set in the engagement agreement.
How are our data and the findings handled?
Engagements run under NDA, and engineers who handle client data undergo background checks. Findings and reports are shared through channels agreed at scoping and are not retained beyond the period needed to deliver and support the engagement. Data-handling specifics — storage, encryption, retention, and destruction — are documented in your service agreement; see the Trust page for our posture.
One practice, not one vendor
This is one stage of a single assurance loop: findings become regression tests, and their indicators become live detections — so a problem, once fixed, can’t quietly come back. That’s what you get from one integrated partner that a stack of separate vendors can’t. See how the loop connects →
