Performance & Security Testing

We stress-test your systems before your users do — load testing, penetration testing, OWASP vulnerability assessments, and API security testing that identify performance bottlenecks and security vulnerabilities before they become production incidents.

What We Deliver

Performance & Security Testing Capabilities

Load testing, penetration testing, and security assessments — finding the performance limits and vulnerabilities that matter before your users or attackers do.

Load & Stress Testing

Simulating realistic and peak traffic loads using k6, Gatling, or JMeter — identifying performance bottlenecks, breaking points, and degradation patterns before launch, so your system handles real traffic without surprises.

Penetration Testing

Manual and tool-assisted penetration testing of web applications, APIs, and infrastructure — simulating real attacker techniques to identify exploitable vulnerabilities, with detailed reproduction steps and remediation guidance.

OWASP Top 10 Assessment

Systematic assessment of your application against all OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities — injection, broken access control, cryptographic failures, security misconfigurations, and more — with code-level findings and remediation guidance.

API Security Testing

Comprehensive API security assessment: authentication bypass, broken object level authorisation (BOLA), excessive data exposure, rate limiting, mass assignment, and business logic vulnerabilities — covering REST and GraphQL APIs.

Infrastructure Security Assessment

Cloud and network configuration review: public exposure checks, security group analysis, IAM privilege escalation paths, unpatched services, and misconfigured storage — producing a prioritised remediation list.

Performance Profiling & Bottleneck Analysis

Application-level performance profiling: identifying slow database queries, N+1 query problems, memory leaks, inefficient algorithms, and caching gaps — with before/after benchmarking to validate improvements.

How We Work

Our Testing Engagement Process

From scope definition to remediation validation — a controlled, documented testing process that produces actionable findings and confirms fixes.

01

Scope & Rules of Engagement

Agreeing the test scope, target systems, testing approach, acceptable methods, and communication protocol — ensuring testing is controlled and doesn't disrupt production systems.

02

Test Planning & Environment Setup

Designing the load test scenarios, defining performance acceptance criteria, and preparing security test cases — with staging environment configuration matching production.

03

Performance Testing Execution

Running baseline, load, spike, stress, and endurance tests — capturing response times, error rates, throughput, and resource utilisation at each traffic level.

04

Security Testing Execution

Systematic penetration testing and OWASP assessment — manual testing of business logic and access controls combined with automated vulnerability scanning.

05

Analysis & Reporting

Detailed test reports with findings, severity ratings, reproduction steps, root cause analysis, and prioritised remediation recommendations for every identified issue.

06

Remediation Validation

Retesting after your team addresses findings — confirming that vulnerabilities have been effectively remediated and no regression has been introduced.

Why SharpLogic

Why teams choose us for performance & security testing

Find it before attackers do

Our penetration testers approach your systems as adversaries — uncovering the vulnerabilities that automated scanners miss and that attackers actively exploit.

Realistic load scenarios

Load tests that model your actual traffic patterns: peak sales periods, marketing launches, and seasonal spikes — not just uniform load that misses real-world behaviour.

Findings that get fixed

Our reports are written for development teams: reproduction steps, root cause analysis, and code-level remediation guidance — not high-level observations that leave developers guessing.

CI/CD security integration

DAST and SAST tools integrated into your pipeline — so security testing runs automatically on every build, not just as a pre-launch exercise.
