Product and Application Security
Abuse and Fraud Risk Assessment
Assess account takeover, bot abuse, card testing, refund, promotion, and trial abuse, with an abuse case catalog mapped to preventive and detective controls.
What it covers
The engagement in detail
Assessment of the attacks that exploit the application as designed rather than as defective, including credential stuffing and account takeover, automated bot activity, enumeration and scraping, payment and card testing fraud, refund and chargeback abuse, promotion and referral abuse, free trial exploitation, synthetic account creation, and insider misuse. The engagement produces an abuse case catalog mapped to the preventive, detective, and responsive controls that address each path, covering rate limiting and velocity controls, bot management, device and behavioral signals, risk-based authentication, and the monitoring required to notice abuse in progress.
Who it is for
Designed for established organizations measuring and maturing an existing security program, and software and SaaS companies, and organizations running business-critical in-house applications.
