Penetration Testing for Retail & eCommerce

Retailers, eCommerce brands, marketplaces, and consumer platforms face attacks that can compromise customer accounts, manipulate orders or payments, expose sensitive data, disrupt fulfillment, or undermine customer trust.

Netragard performs manual penetration testing to validate whether weaknesses across storefronts, checkout workflows, APIs, loyalty programs, administrative systems, and connected platforms can be exploited, chained together, and escalated by real-world attackers.

WHERE A SINGLE WEAKNESS CAN LEAD

See How Exposure Can Become Compromise.

Not every exposure becomes a breach. We determine whether weaknesses can be exploited, connected, and escalated into meaningful impact. This gives eCommerce, IT, security, operations, and risk leaders a clear view of the exposures that could affect customer accounts, transactions, payment environments, fulfillment operations, or customer trust.

Customer Accounts & Loyalty Programs

Validate whether weaknesses could expose customer information, enable account takeover, compromise stored payment methods, drain loyalty points or gift card balances, manipulate profile or shipping details, or expose sensitive customer communications.

Checkout, Payments & Order Workflows

Assess whether storefronts, checkout flows, payment integrations, order-management functions, refund processes, promotions, or access-control gaps could enable transaction manipulation, fraud, unauthorized changes, card data exposure, or revenue loss.

Identity &
Administrative Control

Test whether compromised employee accounts, vendor access, service accounts, or cloud identities can be escalated into broader control of storefronts, payment environments, customer-data systems, fulfillment platforms, or internal operations.

Fulfillment Resilience & Customer Trust

Identify attack paths that could disrupt order processing, warehouse or fulfillment integrations, inventory systems, critical third-party connections, or the availability and integrity of the services customers depend on.

ASSESSMENT AREAS

Follow the Attack Path All the Way Through.

We test the applications, identities, connected platforms, and operational systems an attacker could use to gain access, move through your environment, and reach customer accounts, payment workflows, sensitive data, or the systems that keep commerce moving.

Transaction Integrity & Operational Impact

Can application logic, checkout and payment workflows, customer-account controls, promotions, refunds, fulfillment processes, APIs, or administrative functions be abused to manipulate transactions, enable fraud, expose sensitive data, disrupt order processing, or compromise the systems that support revenue and customer trust?

How Netragard Approaches Testing

REAL-TIME DYNAMIC TESTING

Our Real-Time Dynamic Testing® methodology adapts as new attack-surface data is discovered during the engagement.

PATH TO COMPROMISE (PTC)

We chain vulnerabilities to show how attackers can move through your environment and reach their ultimate goal.

MANUAL, EXPERT-LED TESTING

No automated-only reports. Our team tests like attackers think and adapts dynamically as the test unfolds.

EXPLOIT DEVELOPMENT & RESEARCH

Backed by vulnerability research and custom exploit development.

COMPLIANCE AS A BYPRODUCT

We help you meet requirements, but our objective is understanding risk—not checking a box.

ACTIONABLE REPORTING

Clear findings, prioritized risk, reproducible steps, and free retesting to confirm fixes.

COMPLIANCE & ASSURANCE

Security Requirements Still Need Real Validation.

PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, customer security reviews, third-party due diligence, and insurer requirements establish important expectations for retailers and eCommerce companies. They do not demonstrate whether an attacker can exploit weaknesses in customer accounts, checkout workflows, payment integrations, connected platforms, or administrative systems.

Findings from our manual penetration tests help security, IT, and risk teams prioritize remediation, support customer and assessor conversations, and give leadership a defensible view of real-world risk.
