Why is SaaS penetration testing assessment important for businesses?

Security has taken a hot seat of ‘strategic importance’ in board rooms compared to the traditional ‘cost center’. Increasing reliability on third-party cloud services has raised awareness around data security and privacy concerns. 

Both the parties, SaaS solution and their customers, commonly provide their solutions for thorough SaaS penetration testing to determine the unknowns to assess and prepare for futuristic events. 

Data breaches and compliance are the two most common reasons to justify SaaS penetration testing. Attacks targeting cloud-based infrastructure have been increasing by 50% year over year, as stated in Verizon Data Breach Report 2020.

Although some weaknesses may or may not be known to security teams, cyber assurance to validate your security controls offering peace of mind to customers in one fell swoop is seen as a critical step in SaaS software development services.

How to perform SaaS penetration testing?

Cyphere’s Software as a Service SaaS security testing takes a more comprehensive approach in showing you the unknowns where your blind spots are. Whether it is due to compliance, customer pressures or other reasons, SaaS assessments sometimes take the form of vulnerability assessmentsmobile application penetration testing and application security testing.

SaaS penetration testing, also called “ethical hacking“, is conducted to identify, assess and exploit critical vulnerabilities to simulate a threat actor’s approach in real-time. It includes tailored advice on mitigating the identified risks with clear information about the likelihood and impact of successful attacks. Cyphere’s security consultants agree on the white box, grey box or black box penetration test methodologies that define the threat scenarios to be simulated during the assessment in SaaS platform. Our assessment methodology is aligned with various standards such as OWASP, CIS and SANS control to provide clarity for customers.

To align with a proactive, secure SaaS software approach for a SaaS application, conducting penetration testing or one-component security assessment alone is insufficient to test an asset’s breadth and depth. It also involves architectural reviews, source code reviews, networks, management, and project-related processes. 

Specifically, SaaS application security concerns in addition to penetration test checks, include business logic and workflow vulnerabilities, third-party integrations and modules security issues.

SaaS application security tools utilised during a security assessment are no different than SaaS penetration testing such as Burp web proxy suite, other web vulnerabilities, and network scanners, scripts, and WAF configuration checks. As a SaaS security company, the added expertise, understanding of SaaS applications, and business logic make the difference.

SaaS Security Testing Methodology

Identity and Access Management (IAM)1
Read More
This phase involves reviewing identity and access management-related controls. Generally, these include checks on the use of higher privilege accounts, use of MFA, password policy, IAM policies, access keys and credentials usage policies
SaaS Logging2
Read More
This phase includes reviews around CloudTrail log settings, trail configuration and use of CloudWatch or similar setups. Configuration settings, storage access logging and encryption are also reviewed.
Network Security3
Read More
This involves checks around the firewall/NSG, controls such as ingress, egress rulesets, flow logging, traffic restrictions, and least access privileges.
Monitoring4
Read More
Cloud monitoring is one of the critical elements of security for SaaS applications. You must know what’s being accessed, attempted for access or has been granted access. Audit events help with internal improvements as well as record keeping in case of an incident. These reviews include checks for real-time monitoring configuration, management sign-ins, unauthorised API calls, alarms for any changes made to access control lists, security policy/groups, routing tables, and related parameters.
