Security testing built for
enterprise software
Detect vulnerabilities before attackers do. Continuous security validation integrated into your development workflow.
Why security testing matters for enterprises
Security testing is not about finding every theoretical vulnerability. It is about systematically reducing the risk that matters to your business.
Missed edge cases cause breaches
Most vulnerabilities hide in edge cases that manual reviews and periodic pen tests miss. Attackers find them because they look continuously.
Security regressions in new releases
Every release can reintroduce fixed vulnerabilities or create new ones. Without continuous testing, regressions ship to production undetected.
Over-reliance on manual reviews
Code reviews catch logic errors, not subtle security flaws. Manual security reviews can not scale with modern release velocity.
Gaps between security and engineering
Security teams identify issues too late in the cycle. Engineering teams lack visibility into security requirements during development.
Regulatory and legal exposure
Security failures trigger regulatory scrutiny, fines, and legal liability. The cost of a breach far exceeds the cost of prevention.
Reputational damage is lasting
Customers lose trust after security incidents. Enterprise buyers increasingly require evidence of security practices before procurement.
Verifiable security behaviors
Security testing validates specific, measurable security controls. Not vague assertions, but concrete evidence that security works.
Authentication enforcement
Validate that authentication controls are properly enforced across all entry points. Detect bypasses, session management flaws, and credential handling issues.
Authorization boundaries
Verify that users can only access resources and actions permitted by their role. Identify privilege escalation paths and broken access controls.
Input validation and injection resistance
Test that all input is properly validated and sanitized. Detect SQL injection, XSS, command injection, and other injection vulnerabilities.
Sensitive data handling
Ensure sensitive data is encrypted in transit and at rest, masked in logs, and not exposed through error messages or insecure storage.
Security regression detection
Automatically detect when previously fixed vulnerabilities are reintroduced. Maintain a security baseline across releases.
How Zof performs security testing
A force multiplier for security teams. A bridge between AppSec and engineering. Security testing that scales with your delivery velocity.
Automated security test execution
Security-focused test flows run automatically on every code change. No manual triggering, no forgotten scans. Security validation is part of the build, not an afterthought.
Validation across releases and environments
The same security tests run in development, staging, and production-like environments. Catch environment-specific security issues before they reach production.
Regression and risk detection
Every release is compared against the security baseline. New risks are flagged immediately. Fixed vulnerabilities are monitored to prevent reintroduction.
CI/CD pipeline integration
Security testing integrates into your existing CI/CD workflow. Block deployments when critical security issues are found. Enable secure continuous delivery.
Clear signals for both teams
Engineering gets actionable findings with reproduction steps. Security gets visibility into posture across all applications. One source of truth, two perspectives.
Security testing in the enterprise SDLC
Security testing is a distinct discipline from compliance and monitoring. Each serves a different purpose in the software lifecycle.
Security Testing
Pre-production, continuous
Validates application behavior against attack scenarios. Detects vulnerabilities before exploitation. Confirms enforcement of security controls.
Functional Testing
Development through deployment
Validates that features work as specified. Catches logic errors and regressions. Ensures user flows complete successfully.
Regression TestingCompliance Validation
Continuous with evidence capture
Proves adherence to standards like SOC 2, ISO, HIPAA, and PCI. Documents control effectiveness. Generates audit evidence.
Compliance TestingObservability & Monitoring
Post-deployment, real-time
Observes production behavior after deployment. Detects anomalies and incidents. Provides operational visibility.
The key distinction
Security testing validates that controls work before production. Compliance proves adherence to standards. Monitoring observes behavior after deployment. All three are necessary. None replace the others.
Who this is for
Different stakeholders, aligned outcomes. Enterprise security testing delivers value across the organization.
Security Teams
Fewer blind spots
Continuous visibility into application security posture. Automated testing scales your security coverage without scaling headcount.
Engineering Teams
Safer releases
Security feedback during development, not after. Clear findings with remediation guidance. Ship with confidence that security is validated.
Leadership
Reduced risk, clear accountability
Quantifiable security metrics for board reporting. Audit trail of security validation. Evidence that security is built into the process.
Enterprise Organizations
Trust, resilience, compliance readiness
Meet enterprise security requirements from customers and partners. Support SOC 2, ISO 27001, and industry-specific security standards.
