As business operations shift to cloud environments and digital transactions, corporate networks and custom web portals become targets for malicious actors. Security vulnerabilities, weak access control, and poorly configured servers can expose sensitive customer databases, leading to severe financial penalties and reputational loss. At Benhost Nigeria Limited, we deliver comprehensive Cybersecurity & Penetration Testing services to help you identify and resolve these risks.
We act as ethical hackers, simulating real-world cyber attacks on your network configurations, API endpoints, and web applications. We run vulnerability scans and perform manual security tests to identify weaknesses before unauthorized users can exploit them.
Our cybersecurity audits cover web application security (OWASP Top 10), local database access rules, server network configurations, and wireless network security. We deliver a detailed remediation report containing concrete steps, allowing your development team to secure vulnerability gaps and protect your business data.
Identify system vulnerabilities and secure your business assets to build customer trust and maintain compliance.
Ethical hacking exposes security gaps in your active code, databases, and servers, allowing you to patch them before malicious exploitation occurs.
Meet security requirements for payment gateways (PCI-DSS), data protection rules (NDPR/GDPR), and corporate finance compliance.
Demonstrate to clients, partners, and investors that their financial transactions, personal profiles, and data files are protected by regular security audits.
Identify and resolve weaknesses that could lead to ransomware lockouts, service disruptions, or database theft, maintaining operational uptime.
We perform security audits in 5 stages, from mapping target resources to providing remediation support.
We define the boundaries of the audit (IP pools, web portals, APIs), establish rules of engagement, and map threat models.
Our security tools scan system ports, index running software versions, and identify unpatched server vulnerabilities.
We perform simulated manual attacks (SQL injection, XSS, API credential bypass, privilege escalation) to verify if vulnerabilities can be exploited.
We compile a detailed audit report listing identified gaps, severity classifications (CVSS), and concrete coding remediation instructions.
Once your development team applies the recommended security patches, we perform a follow-up scan to verify that all gaps are resolved.
We scan and audit system assets across the following categories:
Audit web forms and APIs for SQL injection, CSRF, and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.
Map open ports, audit proxy configurations, and scan router firmwares.
Analyze database privileges, table access configurations, and credential safety.
Verify token storage, session timeouts, cookie flags, and password security.
Scan office Wi-Fi setups, identify rogue nodes, and test WPA security.
Simulate phishing attempts to audit team compliance and security awareness.
We deliver security audits and penetration testing services for different sectors:
Audit web forms, transaction processing points, and API links to meet financial standards.
Harden online checkout portals, secure customer payment files, and check SSL certificates.
Audit office router setups, verify mail server authentication, and check internal network security.
Audit tracking databases and shipping portal integrations to secure customer account details.
The Challenge: Voltra Tech developed a custom trading API to serve their clients. During a review, their developers suspected that legacy database endpoints were vulnerable to SQL injection attacks, which could expose user details.
Our Solution: We performed a security audit of their API endpoints, identifying three endpoints with inadequate parameter validation. We verified the security risk by executing simulated database exploits in a sandbox environment.
The Outcome: We delivered a detailed remediation report containing parameter query templates. Their developers applied the patches, and we verified the resolution with a follow-up scan, securing their database endpoints.
Vulnerability scanning is an automated tool scan that lists known software vulnerabilities. Penetration testing is a simulated manual exploit of identified vulnerabilities by a security analyst, verifying if security barriers can actually be bypassed.
We recommend performing penetration testing at least once a year, and following any major updates to your website code, API configurations, or server infrastructure, to ensure new vulnerabilities are not introduced.
We configure our testing tools to minimize server load. In critical environments, we recommend running penetration tests on staging or test replicas to prevent any disruption to live business operations.
Our report includes code templates and instructions for your developers to apply patches. If you do not have an in-house development team, you can hire our team to secure the identified vulnerability gaps.
Identify vulnerabilities in your custom code, databases, and server configurations, and secure them against potential cyber threats.
