Put your product under controlled attack pressure.
A ShabuShabu Security Crash Test is an authorized offensive-security assessment designed to expose real attack paths before a product launch, major release, API rollout or expansion into AI-powered functionality.
A security assessment built around how an attacker would actually approach the product.
A Security Crash Test goes beyond running vulnerability scanners against a list of URLs. The assessment starts by understanding how the product works, which actions matter most and where users, permissions, APIs and sensitive data intersect.
ShabuShabu then tests those security boundaries under controlled conditions, looking for weaknesses that can be combined into practical exploitation paths.
Product-aware testing
The test follows your real workflows, user roles and high-value product actions.
Manual attack reasoning
Human researchers investigate business logic, permission failures and exploit chains that automation may miss.
Remediation-focused output
The result is a prioritized security report designed to help engineering teams remove the underlying attack paths.
The assessment adapts to the product you are actually building.
A Security Crash Test can focus on one high-risk application or combine several connected attack surfaces when the real security boundary spans multiple systems.
Web Applications
Authentication, authorization, sensitive workflows, administrative functionality, session security and business logic.
APIs
Object access, permission models, authentication, data exposure and abuse of API-driven application logic.
AI & LLM Features
Prompt injection, AI tools, agent permissions, data boundaries and high-impact model-driven actions.
Identity & Access
Login, account recovery, user roles, privilege boundaries and authorization decisions.
Business Logic
Product limits, workflows and legitimate functions that could be manipulated into unintended outcomes.
Connected Systems
Integrations, external services and application boundaries that influence the approved test environment.
The best time to find an attack path is before users depend on it.
The Security Crash Test is especially useful when a product is entering a stage where a security failure would become significantly more expensive to fix.
Before Launch
Test critical product functionality before exposing a new application to public traffic.
Before a Major Release
Review new features, roles and workflows that materially change application behavior.
Before Opening an API
Test authorization and data boundaries before exposing interfaces to clients, partners or integrations.
Before Shipping AI Features
Assess prompt handling, tools and AI permissions before the model gains meaningful product capabilities.
After Major Architecture Changes
Reassess security when authentication, permissions or core application architecture has changed.
Five stages from authorization to verified remediation.
The test is structured so that offensive-security activity remains controlled while still giving researchers enough freedom to investigate realistic attack paths.
Scope
Define systems, domains, environments, accounts, roles and restricted actions.
AUTHORIZATION / SCOPE
Map
Understand the attack surface, trust boundaries and sensitive workflows.
SURFACE / TRUST / FLOW
Attack
Perform manual testing against the approved product security boundaries.
TEST / ABUSE / CHAIN
Report
Document confirmed findings, security impact and remediation priorities.
EVIDENCE / IMPACT / FIX
Retest
Verify whether remediation removes the previously identified attack path.
RETEST / VERIFY / CLOSE
A Crash Test follows attack paths, not vulnerability counts.
Real attackers do not stop because one isolated issue is rated low severity. They look for relationships between users, permissions, APIs, workflows and application states.
The Crash Test therefore evaluates how individual weaknesses can be chained, whether a security boundary can be crossed and what the resulting product impact would actually look like.
The Crash Test ends with a remediation plan, not a scanner export.
The final output is structured around confirmed weaknesses, their practical impact and the actions needed to reduce the actual attack surface.
Executive Security Summary
A clear overview of the assessment and the most important risks identified.
Confirmed Findings
Technical descriptions of validated security weaknesses and affected components.
Attack-Path Analysis
Context showing how vulnerabilities can connect to create practical security impact.
Technical Evidence
Relevant reproduction information and evidence for important findings.
Remediation Priorities
Practical recommendations focused on removing the underlying attack path.
Post-Fix Retest
Optional validation after remediation to confirm that security controls now hold.
What we need before the Crash Test starts.
The initial conversation is used to understand your product and build an appropriate testing scope. You do not need to prepare a perfect security package before contacting us.
Basic information about the application, environment and important workflows is enough to start defining the engagement.
A realistic attack simulation still requires strict boundaries.
Every ShabuShabu Security Crash Test is performed inside an authorized scope. Systems, environments, test identities and sensitive restrictions are agreed before active testing begins.
The objective is to understand how the product can fail without creating unnecessary operational impact or touching unrelated third-party infrastructure.
Find the weak boundary before a real attacker does.
Tell us what you are building, which systems you want tested and what stage the product is in. We will use that information to define an authorized testing scope around the real attack surface.
