Application Security Review — Protect Your Apps in Dubai & Ajman
We evaluate your applications for security weaknesses and provide prioritized, actionable recommendations tailored to UAE regulatory and operational contexts. Suitable for web, mobile, desktop and API-driven systems.
Overview
We perform a structured security review that combines automated analysis and manual testing to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and insecure design patterns in your applications. Our team documents findings with clear risk ratings and reproducible steps so your developers can quickly understand and remediate issues. Remediation guidance includes code-level advice, configuration fixes and mitigation options when fixes are not immediately feasible. Reviews are scoped to minimize business disruption: we can test staging environments, use agreed production windows, or work from source code and binaries depending on your needs. We also map findings to relevant UAE regulations and industry best practices. After remediation we offer retesting and a concise final report that supports internal compliance, procurement or board-level briefings while preserving client confidentiality.
What to prepare
- Application architecture diagram (data flows, integrations)
- Test environment or staging access details and admin/test accounts
- Source code or build artifacts (if secure code review requested)
- API documentation (OpenAPI/Swagger, endpoint list)
- Data classification and compliance requirements (e.g., PDPL, PCI if relevant)
- Previous security reports or incident logs (if available)
- Maintenance windows and authorised testing IP ranges
How the process works
- Scope & risk assessment — identify apps, data sensitivity and testing constraints
- Information gathering — collect architecture diagrams, access credentials and code access as agreed
- Automated scanning — run vetted static and dynamic tools to surface common issues
- Manual testing & secure code review — validate logic flaws, business logic issues and chained vulnerabilities
- Reporting & remediation plan — provide prioritized findings, proof-of-concept and fix recommendations
- Retest & closure — verify fixes and deliver a final report with suggested long-term controls

Frequently asked questions
What does an application security review cover?
We assess authentication/authorization, input validation, data protection, session management, API security, business logic flaws and common exploit classes like injection and insecure deserialization.
Do you need source code to perform a review?
We can perform black-box testing without source code, but having source code enables deeper static analysis and more accurate remediation guidance.
How long does a typical review take?
Duration depends on scope; small apps can take 3–5 business days, while large multi-tier systems typically take 2–4 weeks including reporting and retesting.
Will you disclose vulnerabilities publicly?
No. Findings are shared only with authorized stakeholders under confidentiality controls; we follow responsible disclosure and can assist with coordinated vendor notifications if required.
How do you minimize impact on production systems?
We prefer testing in staging or during agreed windows, use non-destructive techniques first, and coordinate with your ops team to avoid service disruption.
