Out of all the software tools that have previously looked into this subject, Burp Suite is most likely the most complete for web application pentesting to date. However, the reason why this tool was chosen by many Penetration Testing Experts to perform deep web testing did not go over it thoroughly in depth. In this article we are going to briefly discuss some of the benefits of using this tool for your next penetration test.
As many people already know, Pentest Company has been successful in finding and reporting vulnerabilities in many web applications, and this includes both “green” and “black” open source applications. For the green ones, these typically require external penetration testing services and/or continuous integration (CGI) to resolve the issue before a release goes live. For the black ones, many times an internal dedicated team will be required to manually identify and reproduce any vulnerabilities within the code base. Since many vulnerabilities that our customers find are of a security issue, we cannot guarantee that they will disclose the information without there being a valid reason to do so. When performing penetration testing for these web applications, it is often wise to only perform attacks on the vulnerable areas of a web application, as well as any logical attacks on the application code itself.
The first benefit of using the Google Burp Suite to conduct web application pentesting is the ease and simplicity of integration with the Google sandbox. Google has provided a number of APIs for third party tools and scripts to integrate with. By using the Google sandbox, you can quickly gain access to any type of web application’s vulnerable areas. For example, if you had Google Page verification enabled on a website that allowed users to make payments with Google checkout, the Google Sandbox could easily identify the payment form on that site and then bypass it entirely to login to another area of the site.
Another benefit of integrating the Google sandbox into your penetration testing strategy is that Google has included several additional functions into the suite. The most prominent is the Google Webmaster Tools. With this tool, you can quickly identify problems on any type of Google web site. You can also find out the exact location of a particular page in a site, as well as other important information.

Web Application Pentesting
As mentioned earlier, web application contesting can be performed by attackers who are merely interested in gaining access to a web application. However, if an external pen testing company is conducting active attacks on your site, they will have much more to gain than just knowledge of the inner workings of your software. These attacks can expose your company’s security policies and the real weakness of your system. In many cases, the attack will succeed before you even realize that your web application has been compromised. Thus, it is extremely important to follow up with effective security policies even after the initial attacks have been detected and stopped.
Web application pentestings can be performed by attackers who may not necessarily be well-trained hackers. While this is a risk inherent in any penetrations process, it can be particularly threatening if the attackers lack the requisite skills and knowledge to conduct successful attacks. To mitigate this threat, some penetration testing companies employ a “reconnaissance” strategy. This technique involves conducting targeted attacks on a target website, but without the knowledge or control over the inner workings of the server.
There are many possible ways to perform a reconnaissance attack against a target system. In this case, we will examine the process of reconnaissance using Google Maps. Recon reconnaissance is done using Google Map. This service allows users to upload Google Maps onto any web-based website. Once uploaded, you can enable “reconnaissance” which, among other things, allows you to pinpoint the precise location of a target system.
The technique described in this tutorial can be used to gather sensitive information, such as financial and personal data. A Web vulnerability is created when a Web application or file can be read without authorization. A Web application contestant then accesses the sensitive data and extracts and analyzes this data for valuable information. Web vulnerability testing is an essential component of penetration testing. A qualified tester can identify vulnerabilities using visual inspection, manual testing, or network scanning tools.
