73% of web applications have at least one critical vulnerability (Acunetix Web Application Vulnerability Report). SQL injections, XSS flaws, misconfigured access controls: these vulnerabilities are exploited daily by automated attackers scanning thousands of sites per hour.
43% of cyberattacks target web applications (Verizon DBIR). For a Swiss SME, a breach can lead to a customer data leak, non-compliance with the nFADP (fines up to CHF 250,000) and an irreversible loss of trust. A web security audit identifies these flaws before the attackers do.
Our web security audits follow the technological controls of ISO 27001:2022 (Annex A) and the NIST CSF. Each audit produces a detailed report with an action plan prioritised by criticality. At Bexxo, we detect an average of 12 to 15 critical vulnerabilities per audited SME.
White box tests involve a thorough assessment of the internal architecture and source codes. These tests allow us to understand the internal workings of the system and identify potential vulnerabilities.
Grey box tests combine elements of white box and black box tests. In this approach, we have partial knowledge of the system's internal architecture, or even the source codes. These tests are effective for identifying vulnerabilities related to design flaws.
Black box tests, or external security tests, evaluate the system without any prior knowledge. We therefore produce external attacks to identify vulnerabilities exploitable from the outside. This method is particularly useful for assessing the application's security from the perspective of a potential attacker.
| Criterion | White Box | Grey Box | Black Box |
|---|---|---|---|
| Knowledge | Source code + architecture | Partial access (user) | None (external attacker) |
| Perspective | Internal developer | User with account | Hacker |
| Depth | Maximum (code + infra) | Balanced | Attack surface |
| Average duration | 5 to 10 days | 3 to 7 days | 2 to 5 days |
| Relative cost | Higher | Standard | More affordable |
| Ideal for | In-depth pre-production audit | Standard SME audit | External resistance test |
