Penetration TestingSummary
Independent testers assess our stack annually. We remove client data before testing so no sensitive records are ever exposed during engagements.
Key Features:
Secure Service
Professional data protection solutions
Scope & Methodology
Conducted by a CREST-certified partner covering Buffsend infrastructure, customer dashboard, takedown evidence vault, and internal automation services. Testing combined gray-box application testing, API fuzzing, cloud configuration review, and social engineering resistance checks.
What Testers Did
- • Authenticated application testing across admin and customer roles
- • API abuse attempts including rate-limit bypass and privilege escalation
- • Cloud security review (GCP) focusing on IAM, network segmentation, and logging
- • Phishing resilience test for target group of 5 operations analysts
Data Handling Approach
- • No live client manifests or takedown packets accessible during testing
- • Synthetic datasets generated with anonymized structures
- • All test accounts instrumented with just-in-time provisioning and audit logging
- • Report artifacts stored in evidence room with encryption at rest
OAuth Redirect Hardening
Third-party testers identified that a legacy OAuth redirect endpoint accepted wildcard subdomains. No exploitation occurred, but we tightened allowed return URIs and added signed nonce validation within 24 hours.
Remediation: Production fix deployed within the test window, validated by retest on 10 Oct 2025.
Admin Session Timeout
Admin console session timeout was configured to 12 hours. Testers recommended aligning with our 30-minute policy. Updated configuration and forced re-authentication.
Remediation: Timeout reduced to 30 minutes. Adjustment documented in access control policy rev. 8/2025.
TLS Cipher Suite Inventory
Report recommended pruning unused legacy cipher suites from CDN configuration. No impact on security posture but implemented for hygiene.
Remediation: Cipher suites removed and automated monitoring added via SecurityHeaders.io.
Next Steps
We schedule our next full-scope test for April 2026 and run quarterly internal offensive exercises. Clients can observe remediation tasks through shared ticket dashboards.
Quarterly Purple Team
Internal detection and response simulations to rehearse platform takedown escalations.
Shared Fix Tracking
Clients receive read access to remediation tickets inside our security workspace.
Regulator Briefings
Summaries available for regulator or partner security reviews under NDA.
