About Baptiste

Web & API Pentest


Independent consultant based in Poitiers, I specialize in web application penetration testing. Recognized for my expertise and certifiedOSCP**(Offensive Security Certified Professional)**, I assist companies of all sectors in identifying and remediating vulnerabilities before they are exploited.

My audits are based on theOWASPframework, with a clear, structured methodology aligned with industry standards. The tests combine automated tools and in-depth manual analysis to identify real vulnerabilities, beyond false positives. Each audit is adapted to the architecture, business logic, and technical specificities of the targeted application.

Typical mission process:

  • Scoping of the perimeter, objectives, and technical constraints
  • Validation of the schedule, implementation methods, and expected deliverables
  • Penetration test execution
  • Detailed restitution: clear report, risk prioritization, actionable recommendations

My approach is based on **transparency**, **confidentiality**, and **reliable results**. The objective is to enable you to precisely identify your weaknesses and make informed decisions to correct them.

Available for one-time or recurring missions.
