The Challenge

Operating a CIAM platform requires protecting authentication credentials, identity tokens, and personal data across a complex, multi-tenant architecture. While LoginRadius maintained a strong security baseline, verifying exposure across interconnected identity and authorization layers remained essential.

The assessment focused on:

  • Validating tenant isolation across shared infrastructure
  • Stress-testing authorization and privilege enforcement logic
  • Analyzing authentication and identity workflow behavior
  • Establishing independent technical assurance for enterprise trust

The objective was to confirm that enforcement controls remained consistent across complex interaction scenarios.

‍

The Engagement

AppSecure executed a comprehensive black-box penetration test simulating an external attacker with no credentials or insider access.

Approach

Reconnaissance and Attack Surface Mapping

  • Identified exposed authentication and identity components
  • Enumerated APIs and external interaction points
  • Analyzed session lifecycle and identity state behavior

Security Testing

  • Evaluated tenant boundary enforcement
  • Tested privilege and authorization validation logic
  • Assessed authentication and session handling consistency
  • Analyzed identity workflows for logic-driven attack paths

Exploit Validation

  • Confirmed the practical feasibility of the identified weaknesses
  • Measured impact and enforcement breakdown conditions

The assessment aligned with OWASP Top 10 and OWASP ASVS while focusing on real exploitability and practical risk.

Strengthening Security Posture

LoginRadius engineering and AppSecure worked closely to address the findings:

  • All critical findings were resolved and validated within 2 weeks
  • High-severity findings were fixed within the defined remediation timelines
  • Security improvements were incorporated into the engineering roadmap

Security Enhancements Achieved

  • Strengthened multi-tenant isolation controls
  • Improved authorization and access control validation
  • Enhanced API and session validation mechanisms
  • Strengthened authentication and identity workflow protections
  • Reduced risk of logic-based exploitation

These improvements enhanced the platform’s ability to handle complex attack scenarios.

Long-Term Security Value

Beyond individual findings, the engagement delivered broader strategic value:

  • More consistent protection across identity and authorization layers
  • Reduced risk across complex identity workflows
  • Improved readiness for scale and platform growth
  • Stronger security validation practices
  • Clear roadmap for continued platform hardening 

This improved long-term security resilience and platform stability.

Strengthening Enterprise Trust and Assurance

The assessment delivered independent validation aligned with OWASP ASVS and Top 10, supporting:

  • Enterprise vendor risk and security evaluations
  • SOC 2 and ISO 27001 security assurance
  • Customer procurement security reviews
  • Evidence-backed validation of platform security

This helped LoginRadius demonstrate strong and proactive security practices.

Measurable Outcomes

Through this partnership, LoginRadius achieved measurable and sustained improvements:

Key Metrics

  • 100% of critical findings resolved within 2 weeks
  • High-severity findings were remediated within defined timelines
  • Improved tenant isolation
  • Stronger authorization validation
  • Reduced practical exploit risk

Business Impact

  • Increased enterprise customer confidence
  • Strengthened internal security maturity
  • Improved competitive positioning in vendor evaluations
