About AppScan Assessment Test

An AppScan Assessment Test evaluates candidates for their proficiency in using IBM Security AppScan, a leading application security testing tool. It assesses their knowledge, skills, and experience in scanning, analyzing, and securing web applications against various security vulnerabilities and threats.

An AppScan Assessment Test evaluates candidates for:

  1. Proficiency in configuring and using IBM Security AppScan for web application security testing, including installation, setup, and configuration of scan profiles, policies, and authentication settings.
  2. Knowledge of web application security vulnerabilities, threats, and attack vectors, including OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) top 10 vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), CSRF (cross-site request forgery), and insecure direct object references (IDOR).
  3. Skills in conducting static and dynamic application security testing (SAST and DAST) using IBM Security AppScan to identify vulnerabilities and security weaknesses in web applications, APIs, and microservices.
  4. Experience in performing manual and automated security scans, crawls, and assessments of web applications to detect and remediate security vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and compliance issues.
  5. Understanding of scan results, findings, and reports generated by IBM Security AppScan, including severity levels, risk ratings, CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) identifiers, and recommended remediation actions for addressing identified vulnerabilities.
  6. Knowledge of authentication and authorization mechanisms, session management, input validation, output encoding, and other security controls for protecting web applications against common security threats and attacks.
  7. Familiarity with advanced scanning techniques and configurations in IBM Security AppScan, including incremental scans, incremental discovery, custom scan configurations, and API integration for automated testing.
  8. Skills in interpreting scan logs, HTTP requests, responses, and attack payloads generated during security scans to understand attack patterns, exploit vectors, and potential security vulnerabilities in web applications.
  9. Experience in collaborating with development teams, security engineers, and stakeholders to prioritize, track, and remediate security findings identified during AppScan scans and integrate security testing into the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
  10. Aptitude for configuring and customizing IBM Security AppScan scripts, macros, authentication scripts, and scan policies to simulate real-world attack scenarios and perform comprehensive security assessments of web applications.
  11. Ability to analyze complex web application architectures, frameworks, and technologies (e.g., JavaScript frameworks, single-page applications) to ensure accurate and thorough security testing coverage with IBM Security AppScan.
  12. Strong problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills for identifying security issues, root causes, and remediation strategies, and effectively communicating findings and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  13. Proficiency in using additional features and modules of IBM Security AppScan, such as mobile application security testing (MAST), API security testing, source code scanning, and container security scanning, as applicable to the organization's security requirements.
  14. Knowledge of industry standards, compliance regulations, and security best practices related to web application security testing and vulnerability management, including PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, ISO 27001, and NIST cybersecurity framework.
  15. Continuous learning and professional development in the field of application security, including staying updated with the latest trends, techniques, and tools for securing web applications and mitigating emerging security threats and risks.

Overall, our AppScan Assessment Test measures candidates' knowledge, skills, and hands-on experience in using IBM Security AppScan to assess and enhance the security posture of web applications, providing you with valuable insights into their ability to protect sensitive data, mitigate security risks, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
