Application Security Review for UAE Businesses — AL SAHRAA

Comprehensive application security reviews for web, mobile, desktop and API-driven systems—prioritized, actionable recommendations tailored to UAE regulatory and operational contexts.

Application Security Review — AL SAHRAA Businessmen Services LLC

Protecting applications is essential for UAE organisations handling customer data, financial transactions, or critical operations. AL SAHRAA’s Application Security Review evaluates web, mobile, desktop and API-driven systems to find security weaknesses and provide prioritized, actionable recommendations tailored to UAE regulatory and operational contexts.

Key points

  • Coverage: web apps, mobile apps (iOS/Android), desktop apps, and APIs (REST, GraphQL, gRPC).
  • Techniques: threat modelling, secure code review, dynamic testing (penetration testing), dependency and configuration analysis, API security testing.
  • Outcomes: prioritized findings, technical evidence, remediation steps, and retest verification.
  • Local context: assessments mapped to UAE regulatory considerations (e.g., UAE PDPL and local authority requirements) and operational realities in Dubai, Ajman and across the Emirates.
  • Standards: aligned with industry best practices such as OWASP Top 10, SANS, CWE and common vulnerability scoring (CVSS) for risk prioritisation.
  • What we test

  • Authentication, session management and authorization flows
  • Input validation, injection and business logic vulnerabilities
  • API endpoints, data exposure, rate limiting and access control
  • Mobile-specific issues: insecure storage, improper permissions, insecure communication
  • Third-party libraries and dependency vulnerabilities
  • Configuration and deployment weaknesses (CI/CD, cloud configs)
  • How we work

    1. Scope & discovery: confirm assets, environments (dev/staging/prod) and regulatory constraints. 2. Threat modelling: identify likely attack paths relevant to your business and UAE operations. 3. Testing: secure code review (where available), manual and automated dynamic testing, API fuzzing and dependency scans. 4. Reporting: prioritized findings with evidence, remediation guidance and risk ratings. 5. Support: remediation advice, code-level fixes where requested, and retest to confirm closure.

    We do not make unrealistic guarantees about future security; instead we provide clear, actionable steps to reduce risk and improve defenses.

  • Frequently asked questions

    How long does an application security review take?

    Depends on scope and complexity. Small applications may take a few days; larger, API-driven or multi-platform systems can take several weeks. We provide a timeline with every quote.

    How much will it cost?

    Costs vary by scope, code access, number of platforms, and whether remediation support is required. Request a tailored quote from AL SAHRAA to get an exact estimate.

    Will you test production systems?

    We can test production, staging or development environments. For production testing we follow safe-testing practices and coordinate windows to minimise operational impact.

    Do you fix vulnerabilities or only report them?

    We provide remediation guidance and can support fixes or collaborate with your development team. If you prefer, AL SAHRAA can provide hands-on remediation services for your team.

    Do you share evidence and retest after fixes?

    Yes. All findings include reproducible evidence. We offer retest services to verify fixes and update the risk posture.
