Web Application Penetration Testing in United StatesBuilt for SOC 2, FedRAMP, and CMMC scoping in the United States.
SecureLayer7 runs CREST-accredited web application pentests for US enterprises whose audit boundary spans SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST CSF, FedRAMP, or CMMC. Same-timezone delivery from Austin TX, US-governed engagement terms, evidence packs your auditor accepts on first review.
Research-driven testing. Audit-ready reports.
Full attack surface coverage
Authentication, business logic, API endpoints, session management, not just OWASP Top 10.
Working proof-of-exploit
Every finding includes a reproducible PoC and video, developer-ready, not just a CVSS score.
Re-test included
We verify your fixes at no extra cost. One engagement, closed-loop, not a revolving invoice.
The window from vulnerability discovery to exploitation has gone from weeks to hours.
Trusted by security teams across Fintech, SaaS & Education, Enterprise & Telecom, Security & Critical Infrastructure
Scope
Every attack surface. Not just OWASP Top 10.
Authentication, authorisation, business logic abuse, API misuse, and session handling tested against the attack patterns US auditors and the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list flag most often.
Authentication & Session
Login bypass, session fixation, token prediction, password reset flaws, MFA weaknesses.
Business Logic Flaws
Price manipulation, privilege escalation, workflow abuse, unique to your application.
API & GraphQL
REST and GraphQL endpoints, mass assignment, IDOR, broken object-level authorization.
Injection & Execution
SQLi, XXE, SSTI, command injection, deserialization, tested manually with chained exploits.
Client-Side Attacks
XSS, CSRF, clickjacking, postMessage abuse, DOM-based vulnerabilities.
Infrastructure & Config
Exposed admin panels, misconfigured headers, verbose error messages, third-party components.
How we pentest
Every finding verified. Eight phases, closed-loop.
Threat-modelled to the patterns US auditors care about: SOC 2 CC6.1 access control failures, HIPAA-relevant PHI exposure, PCI DSS cardholder-data leakage, and FedRAMP boundary gaps in cloud-hosted apps.
Reconnaissance & Enumeration
We map your real attack surface, subdomains, exposed endpoints, tech stack, third-party integrations, and anything a motivated attacker would find before engaging.
Scoping & Threat Modelling
We build a threat model specific to your application, not a generic checklist. High-value targets, user roles, and probable attacker paths are defined before a single test runs.
Static Analysis
Client-side code, JavaScript bundles, and API schemas are reviewed for logic leaks, hardcoded secrets, and insecure patterns that dynamic testing alone won't surface.
Dynamic Analysis
Active testing against your running application, authentication bypass, session hijacking, input fuzzing, and flow abuse that requires a human attacker, not a scanner.
App & API Analysis
Every REST and GraphQL endpoint tested for IDOR, mass assignment, broken object-level auth, rate limiting gaps, and injection, with chained exploit scenarios, not isolated CVEs.
Vulnerability Analysis
Findings are correlated, chained into real exploit paths, and assigned CVSS scores with business impact context, so your team knows what to fix first and why.
Remediation Guidance
Remediation guidance written for developers, not auditors. Code-level fix examples, library recommendations, and configuration changes, not a list of CWEs to Google.
Patch Verification
Every finding is re-tested after your team ships fixes, at no extra cost. You get written confirmation that each vulnerability is resolved, not just closed on a spreadsheet.
Deliverables
A report your auditor accepts. Your developers can act on.
Reports written for US auditors. SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria mapping, HIPAA Security Rule coverage, PCI DSS Requirement 11.4 evidence, NIST CSF v2 control coverage. Every finding ships with a working PoC and code-level fix guidance.
CREST-accredited. Accepted by:
Reproducible PoC + Video
Every finding ships with a working exploit and screen recording. Your developers see exactly what an attacker sees, no guesswork, no chasing us for clarification.
Code-Level Fix Guidance
Remediation written for engineers, not auditors. Specific code changes, library recommendations, and config fixes, not a list of CWEs to Google.
Re-test Included
Every finding is re-tested once your team ships the fix, at no extra cost. One engagement, closed loop. You get written confirmation, not just a closed ticket.
Compliance-Ready Report
CREST-accredited report accepted by SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and HIPAA auditors out of the box. No re-scoping, no addenda, no extra calls with your audit team.

Questions US security buyers ask first.
Will your report satisfy SOC 2 Type II CC4 testing evidence?
Yes. Reports map findings to the Trust Services Criteria, with CC4.1 and CC4.2 evidence formatted for your CPA firm's workpapers.
Do you support FedRAMP Moderate and CMMC Level 2 scoping?
Yes. We scope to NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 control families for FedRAMP and NIST SP 800-171 control families for CMMC. POA&M-ready findings.
How do HIPAA-relevant PHI exposures get treated?
Any chain reaching PHI flags as a HIPAA Security Rule §164.308 incident-response trigger, with breach-notification rationale included.
What about PCI DSS Requirement 11.4 evidence?
Reports include PCI DSS v4.0 Requirement 11.4.3 application-layer testing evidence, accepted by QSAs as part of the ROC.
