With our Static Analysis Security Testing, Dynamic Analysis Security Testing, and Penetration Testing, you have more visibility and insight into your code and application’s security.
Static Analysis scan is conducted on your source code with partner tools and an experienced security analyst reviews the results and then presents the findings in an easy-to-understand manner for all parties (developers and stakeholders).
The Dynamic Analysis scan is conducted periodically on your application behavior to identify critical security concerns in your application that may not otherwise be caught by a SAST scanner. The findings are reviewed by expert security analysts and presented to your development team.
Penetration testing is hacking through your application like a hacker would to find vulnerabilities. We our application security package, you can expect a revised hacking to confirm that the flaws have been remediated.

In our experience, the developers usually knock it off as “not critical”, but with KN Cyber, we speak the language of developers.
