OWASP Top 10 Report for Convergys

Introduction

This report provides an assessment of the security posture of Convergys, a leading provider of customer management solutions. The assessment was conducted using the OWASP Top 10 guidelines, which identify the most critical web application security risks.

A1:2017 - Injection

• Severity: High
• Likelihood: High
• Impact: High
• Description: Convergys's web application is vulnerable to SQL injection attacks, which could allow an attacker to extract sensitive data or manipulate the database.
• Recommendation: Implement input validation and sanitization for all user input, and use prepared statements to prevent SQL injection attacks.

A2:2017 - Broken Authentication

• Severity: High
• Likelihood: Medium
• Impact: High
• Description: Convergys's web application has weak authentication mechanisms, which could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or systems.
• Recommendation: Implement strong authentication mechanisms, such as multi-factor authentication, and ensure that all authentication credentials are stored securely.

A3:2017 - Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

• Severity: High
• Likelihood: Medium
• Impact: High
• Description: Convergys's web application is vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, which could allow an attacker to inject malicious code into the application.
• Recommendation: Implement output encoding and validation for all user input, and use a Content Security Policy (CSP) to define which sources of content are allowed to be executed.

A4:2017 - Insecure Direct Object Reference

• Severity: Medium
• Likelihood: Medium
• Impact: Medium
• Description: Convergys's web application has insecure direct object references, which could allow an attacker to access sensitive data or systems.
• Recommendation: Implement access controls and validation for all direct object references, and use a secure random number generator to generate unique IDs.

A5:2017 - Security Misconfiguration

• Severity: Medium
• Likelihood: High
• Impact: Medium
• Description: Convergys's web application has security misconfigurations, such as outdated software and unpatched vulnerabilities, which could allow an attacker to exploit the application.
• Recommendation: Implement a security configuration management process, and ensure that all software is up-to-date and patched.

A6:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure

• Severity: High
• Likelihood: Medium
• Impact: High
• Description: Convergys's web application exposes sensitive data, such as credit card numbers and personal identifiable information (PII), which could be accessed by unauthorized individuals.
• Recommendation: Implement encryption and secure storage for all sensitive data, and ensure that all data is transmitted securely.

A7:2017 - Missing Function Level Access Control

• Severity: Medium
• Likelihood: Medium
• Impact: Medium
• Description: Convergys's web application lacks function-level access control, which could allow an attacker to access sensitive data or systems.
• Recommendation: Implement function-level access control, and ensure that all access is restricted to authorized individuals.

A8:2017 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

• Severity: Medium
• Likelihood: Medium
• Impact: Medium
• Description: Convergys's web application is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks, which could allow an attacker to trick users into performing unauthorized actions.
• Recommendation: Implement a CSRF protection mechanism, such as a token-based system, and ensure that all requests are validated and authenticated.

A9:2017 - Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities

• Severity: Medium
• Likelihood: High
• Impact: Medium
• Description: Convergys's web application uses components with known vulnerabilities, which could allow an attacker to exploit the application.
• Recommendation: Implement a vulnerability management process, and ensure that all components are up-to-date and patched.

A10:2017 - Insufficient Logging & Monitoring

• Severity: Medium
• Likelihood: High
• Impact: Medium
• Description: Convergys's web application lacks sufficient logging and monitoring, which could make it difficult to detect and respond to security incidents.
• Recommendation: Implement a logging and monitoring system, and ensure that all logs are reviewed and analyzed regularly.

Conclusion

This report highlights the most critical web application security risks facing Convergys. To mitigate these risks, Convergys should implement the recommended security controls and best practices outlined in this report.
