Burp Suite for Application Security Testing and Audits

Advanced Penetration Testing and Web Security Audits to Safeguard Smart Utility and IoT Applications

Platform Introduction

Modern utility infrastructure depends heavily on secure, stable web applications—from control interfaces to customer portals. Burp Suite, deployed and supported by Cyber Security Testing Pro, delivers comprehensive tools for penetration testing, dynamic analysis, and vulnerability scanning of these applications. It helps identify logic flaws, session weaknesses, injection points, and more, all critical to protecting smart IoT systems in real-time.

Headquartered in Canoga Park, CA, Cyber Security Testing Pro is a recognized leader in delivering advanced, scalable IoT solutions for utility and infrastructure providers across North America. With our strong focus on product reliability and expert-driven integration, we help clients implement Burp Suite to uncover hidden vulnerabilities, strengthen web security posture, and meet rigorous compliance mandates. Whether you’re testing internal tools or public-facing platforms, Burp Suite with Cyber Security Testing Pro ensures your applications are secure from the inside out.

Case Studies

U.S. Smart Water Utility – Pennsylvania

A municipal water authority usedCyber Security Testing Pro’s deployment of Burp Suite to secure its IoT-enabled billing and leak detection portals. Manual testing revealed authorization bypass vulnerabilities, which were resolved within two weeks—reducing system downtime and improving customer trust.

U.S. Grid Monitoring Provider - Arizona

An energy firm partnered with Cyber Security Testing Pro to test their embedded IoT device management web app. Burp Suite identified session fixation and parameter tampering flaws that had gone undetected by automated tools—ensuring secure access to thousands of field units.

Canadian Energy Dashboard - British Columbia

A smart energy distributor integrated Burp Suite into its DevSecOps workflow via Cyber Security Testing Pro. This integration led to the early detection of input validation flaws during staging and eliminated 95% of web vulnerabilities before production deployment.
