Acunetix for Web Security & Vulnerability Management

Automated Web Vulnerability Scanning and Risk Management for Secure Smart Utility and IoT Applications

Platform Introduction

Web applications are often the most exposed assets in modern infrastructure—and they are frequently targeted by cyber threats. Acunetix, integrated by Cyber Security Testing Pro, is a powerful, automated web vulnerability scanner that detects a wide range of security issues including SQL injection, XSS, and misconfigurations. Designed for utility-grade environments, Acunetix helps identify and prioritize risks across public-facing portals, internal web systems, and IoT management interfaces.

Located in Canoga Park, CA, Cyber Security Testing Pro has established itself as a trusted provider of intelligent IoT solutions. With a growing B2B footprint across North America, we help utilities and smart infrastructure providers proactively protect digital assets through innovation, expert guidance, and reliable tools like Acunetix. Our deployment services streamline vulnerability scanning and remediation workflows to reduce risk and ensure audit readiness in regulated industries.

Case Studies

U.S. Energy Provider – Illinois

Cyber Security Testing Pro implemented Acunetix to secure a client’s smart metering dashboard. Within 30 days, over 500 web vulnerabilities were remediated. The result was a 75% reduction in their attack surface and full compliance with internal cybersecurity benchmarks.

U.S. Smart City Project – Florida

A municipal partner deployed Acunetix via Cyber Security Testing Pro to audit IoT web portals used in lighting and traffic systems. The tool identified API misconfigurations and legacy server exposures, helping the city achieve ISO 27001 certification ahead of schedule.

Canadian Utility Company – Alberta

Cyber Security Testing Pro supported a Canadian energy distributor in rolling out Acunetix across customer billing and monitoring portals. The implementation resulted in a 3x increase in scan coverage and eliminated unpatched injection flaws across key user-facing systems.
