Tests OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect implementations for security flaws including authorization code interception, redirect URI manipulation, CSRF in OAuth flows, token leakage, scope escalation, and PKCE bypass. The tester evaluates the authorization server, client application, and token handling for common misconfigurations that enable account takeover or unauthorized access. Activates for requests involving OAuth security testing, OIDC vulnerability assessment, OAuth2 redirect bypass, or authorization code flow testing.

Triage web application vulnerability findings from DAST/SAST scanners using OWASP risk rating methodology to separate true positives from false positives and prioritize remediation.

Nikto is an open-source web server and web application scanner that tests against over 7,000 potentially dangerous files/programs, checks for outdated versions of over 1,250 servers, and identifies ve

Performs systematic security testing of web applications following the OWASP Web Security Testing Guide (WSTG) methodology to identify vulnerabilities in authentication, authorization, input validation, session management, and business logic. The tester uses Burp Suite as the primary interception proxy alongside manual testing techniques to find flaws that automated scanners miss. Activates for requests involving web app pentest, OWASP testing, application security assessment, or web vulnerability testing.

Bypass Web Application Firewall protections using encoding techniques, HTTP method manipulation, parameter pollution, and payload obfuscation to deliver SQL injection, XSS, and other attack payloads past WAF detection rules.

Conduct a thick client application penetration test to identify insecure local storage, hardcoded credentials, DLL hijacking, memory manipulation, and insecure API communication in desktop applications using dnSpy, Procmon, and Burp Suite.

Performs OAuth 2.0 scope minimization review to identify over-permissioned third-party application integrations, excessive API scopes, unused token grants, and risky OAuth consent patterns across identity providers and SaaS platforms. Activates for requests involving OAuth scope audit, API permission review, third-party app risk assessment, or consent grant minimization.

A cryptographic audit systematically reviews an application's use of cryptographic primitives, protocols, and key management to identify vulnerabilities such as weak algorithms, insecure modes, hardco

Implement OAuth 2.0 authentication with GitHub and Microsoft Entra (Azure AD) in Cloudflare Workers and other edge environments. Covers provider-specific quirks, required headers, scope requirements, and token handling without MSAL. Use when: implementing GitHub OAuth, Microsoft/Azure AD authentication, handling OAuth callbacks, or troubleshooting 403 errors in OAuth flows.

Implementing zero trust access controls for SaaS applications using CASB, SSPM, conditional access policies, OAuth app governance, and session controls to enforce identity verification, device compliance, and data protection for cloud-hosted services.

Configure ModSecurity WAF with OWASP Core Rule Set (CRS) for web application logging, tune rules to reduce false positives, analyze audit logs for attack detection, and implement custom SecRules for application-specific threats. The analyst configures SecRuleEngine, SecAuditEngine, and CRS paranoia levels to balance security coverage with operational stability. Activates for requests involving WAF configuration, ModSecurity rule tuning, web application audit logging, or CRS deployment.
