SafetyBis authentication testing discovered critical privilege escalation testing issues enabling standard users to gain admin access through vertical privilege escalation. Their authorization testing found broken authorization bypass allowing unauthorized data access. The OAuth security testing identified token security vulnerabilities in our OAuth 2.0 implementation. Professional authentication security testing that saved us from a major breach!

We needed comprehensive IAM testing before our SOC 2 audit. Their authentication security audit found weak password hashing in our password security testing, session fixation vulnerabilities in session management testing, and multi-factor authentication testing bypass issues. The SAML security assessment secured our SSO implementation. Best identity management testing we’ve received!

Their access control testing identified horizontal privilege escalation allowing users to access other accounts through authorization bypass testing weaknesses. JWT authentication testing found insecure token storage of bearer tokens and access tokens. The authorization security audit prevented a critical security flaw. Certified IAM testing experts who understand authentication testing deeply. Highly recommend!

What is authentication & authorization testing?

Authentication testing and authorization testing are specialized security assessments examining identity management testing and access control testing systems. Professional authentication security testing evaluates authentication mechanisms including password security testing validating password policies and password hashing, multi-factor authentication testing, session management testing examining session security and cookie security, OAuth security testing for OAuth 2.0, SAML security assessment for SAML 2.0, and JWT authentication testing for token security. Authorization testing examines access control assessment through RBAC testing, ABAC testing, privilege escalation testing including horizontal privilege escalation testing and vertical privilege escalation testing, and authorization bypass testing. Comprehensive IAM testing identifies broken authentication, authentication bypass testing weaknesses, authorization bypass vulnerabilities, session management vulnerabilities including session fixation and session hijacking, and access control weaknesses enabling unauthorized access through identity management testing failures and authentication penetration testing gaps.

How much does authentication testing cost?

Authentication security testing cost varies based on system complexity and authentication mechanisms. Basic authentication vulnerability assessment and user authentication testing costs $3,500-5,000 for simple systems with basic login security testing. Professional authentication testing and comprehensive authentication security testing ranges $9,000-12,000 for complete testing including multi-factor authentication testing, OAuth security testing, SAML security assessment, and privilege escalation testing. Enterprise IAM testing and complete identity management testing costs $16,000-20,000 for complex identity management systems with federated authentication testing, single sign-on security testing, and comprehensive authorization security audit. Investment prevents authentication breaches averaging $4.7 million making professional authentication penetration testing and IAM testing extremely cost-effective.

How often should we perform authentication testing?

Minimum: annual comprehensive authentication security testing and authorization security audit for all authentication systems and access control testing. Recommended: authentication testing after authentication mechanisms changes, new single sign-on security testing implementations with SSO, OAuth security testing updates to OAuth 2.0, or access control modifications requiring authorization testing. Best practice: continuous authentication testing throughout development catching authentication vulnerability assessment issues early. Essential: immediate authentication penetration testing and IAM testing after discovering vulnerabilities in authentication libraries, authentication protocols, or similar systems. Regular professional authentication testing and identity management testing maintains ongoing identity security testing and authentication security preventing exploitation of authentication vulnerabilities, authorization bypass testing weaknesses, privilege escalation testing flaws, and session management testing issues through comprehensive access control assessment and authorization security assessment.
