Celestial Security Testing Services
1.Web Application Security
Threat Modeling
To secure applications, the primary step is to know the threats to which they're exposed. Threat modeling makes it easier for businesses to grasp the lurking danger and adopt countermeasures.
Penetration Testing
Another way is to approach the application even as any real-world hacker would. External penetration testing should only be carried out by trustworthy individuals backed by certifications. Our penetration testers are EC-Council certified ethical hackers trained to spot and access precious digital assets exploiting inherent vulnerabilities in an application.
Source Code Review
Application source code review at Celestial combines several static code analysis tools such as FindBugs, Sonar, OWASP Orizon, Yasca, Spike with manual code review. We also use tools like Qasat to extract code fragments concerning highly critical features of an application like payment processing, transaction authentication and session management. With these snippets identified, our testers are well equipped for risk analysis at improved speed and efficiency.

2.Server Security
Server Penetration Testing
The aim of a penetration test is to spot server vulnerabilities. This can be performed with the assistance of various tools which augment the testers’ analysis. To assure clients of the compliance of our security processes with IT industry standards, we base our penetration test tools, assessment strategies and audit checklists on OISSG’s Information Systems Security Assessment Framework (ISSAF). While most penetration testing services end during a final report detailing the exposed vulnerabilities and proposals for his or her removal, we take the method to a subsequent level by implementing those corrective steps.
Server Hardening
Server hardening can be broken down into application and operating system (OS) levels.
Hardening at the server application layer constitutes
- Fixing web server firewalls and disabling of HTTP trace requests, directory indexing etc.
- Database hardening to guard against common vulnerabilities like SQL injections.
- Disabling certain system level functions and hiding variables that would expose the server to malicious attacks.
