ATM and Payment Systems Penetration Testing

SolaSec has partnered with payment processors, acquirers, and device manufacturers to evaluate the effectiveness of security controls protecting modern ATM, POS, and payment ecosystems. Our work has helped clients validate PCI DSS v4.0 compliance, strengthen fraud prevention systems, and demonstrate resilience against real-world attack scenarios.

Web Application Penetration Testing

SolaSec has evaluated the effectiveness of web applications used by processors and merchants to manage cardholder data and transaction workflows. Engagements assessed authentication, session handling, and role-based access controls to confirm these mechanisms align with PCI DSS and OWASP ASVS security requirements.

API Penetration Testing

We have tested the robustness of payment APIs supporting acquirer, mobile wallet, and POS systems. Our work validated encryption, tokenization, and replay protection, ensuring API controls effectively resist abuse, fraud automation, and large-scale transaction manipulation attempts.

Mobile Application Penetration Testing

SolaSec has assessed the effectiveness of mobile wallet and NFC payment applications in securing credentials, tokens, and local data. Testing confirmed the integrity of encryption mechanisms, certificate pinning, and app-server communication pathways used in production fintech deployments.

Thick Client Penetration Testing

We have evaluated acquirer and POS management software deployed in enterprise and retail networks. Assessments confirmed that code integrity, privilege separation, and secure update mechanisms effectively prevent local compromise and unauthorized configuration access.

Device Penetration Testing (ATM/POS)

SolaSec has conducted in-depth evaluations of ATM and POS device firmware, operating systems, and communication protocols. Testing measured the effectiveness of tamper detection, secure boot validation, and hardware protection mechanisms designed to defend against jackpotting, black-box, and skimming attacks.

Operating System (OS) Penetration Testing

We have validated the security posture of embedded and host operating systems supporting ATMs, POS controllers, and payment infrastructure. Assessments measured the effectiveness of hardening configurations, patch management, and privilege enforcement against persistent threats targeting financial systems.
