With organizations becoming more and more dependent on data, protecting this data is vital and often compulsory (i.e., when it comes to personal data). Authorized users access data through applications that contain business logic and security functions. If any weaknesses exist in these access layers, risks will arise to the business. In order to stay in control, it is necessary to assess the security measures by testing their effectiveness.
