Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you want to know about Desktop Application Penetration Testing

What are desktop application penetration tests and why are they important for our company?

Desktop application penetration tests are controlled simulations of attacks on your software to detect and eliminate vulnerabilities that can be exploited by cybercriminals. They are crucial for protecting user data, preventing information leaks and maintaining customer trust. With these tests, you can ensure that your applications are secure and resistant to the latest cyber threats.

What is the process of conducting penetration testing of desktop applications?

The penetration testing process starts with understanding the specifics of your application and business goals. Then our experts analyze the software architecture, identifying potential entry points. We perform a variety of tests, such as code analysis, dynamic testing and communication security assessment. Once the tests are complete, we prepare a detailed report with the vulnerabilities found and recommendations for remediation to ensure comprehensive protection of your application.

What qualifications and experience do your security testers have?

Our security testers are highly qualified professionals with years of experience in cyber security and penetration testing. They hold certifications such as OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional), OSCE3 (Offensive Security Certified Expert 3), OSEP (Offensive Security Experienced Penetration Tester) and BSCP (Burp Suite Certified Practitioner). They regularly attend training courses and industry conferences, which allows them to stay abreast of the latest trends and attack techniques.

How do you ensure the confidentiality and security of our data during and after testing?

The security and confidentiality of our clients' data is our top priority. All information provided during testing is protected by a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). We use strict security procedures, including data encryption and access control, to ensure that information is protected both during transmission and storage. Once testing is complete, data is securely deleted in accordance with established retention policies.

What are the costs associated with conducting penetration testing of desktop applications?

The cost of penetration testing depends on several factors, such as the scope of work, the complexity of the application, the number of platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) and your specific requirements. After an initial analysis and determination of the scope of testing, we prepare a personalized offer, tailored to your budget and needs. Investing in penetration testing brings significant benefits, minimizing the risk of serious security incidents and protecting your company's reputation.

Do you offer testing for applications on different operating systems, such as Windows, macOS or Linux?

Yes, our penetration testing covers applications on Windows, macOS and Linux platforms. We understand the specifics of each of these platforms and tailor our testing methodologies to their unique characteristics and security features. This allows us to effectively identify and eliminate vulnerabilities specific to each platform, providing comprehensive protection for your desktop applications.

How often should we perform penetration testing of our desktop applications?

The frequency of penetration testing depends on several factors, such as the dynamics of application development, the introduction of new features, changes in architecture or emerging threats. It is recommended to conduct penetration tests at least once a year and after every major application update. Regular testing helps maintain a high level of security, identify new vulnerabilities and ensure compliance with current standards and regulations.

Do you offer reports and recommendations after penetration testing?

Yes, upon completion of penetration testing, we provide a detailed report that includes a description of the vulnerabilities found, their potential security impact, and specific recommendations for remediation. The report is prepared in a way that both technical and management teams can understand. In addition, we offer to discuss the results with your team and support you in planning corrective actions to ensure that the recommendations are effectively implemented and application security is strengthened.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

Our Clients who have chosen Top-Level Security

Elementrica conducted a penetration test of our DataPortal system. From the very first meeting, we were positively impressed by the company representative’s collaborative approach. Each subsequent meeting strengthened our trust in the testing team, who demonstrated a high level of professionalism throughout the process, commitment, and creativity. Elementrica effectively identified key areas for improvement, enabling us to implement the necessary corrective actions. The test report was detailed and precise and included practical recommendations, significantly reducing the time needed to implement fixes. The testers managed their time and resources exceptionally well, allowing them to explore areas not directly related to the tested system yet still completing the work on schedule. I am pleased to recommend Elementrica for their excellent execution of the task.
