“I would highly recommend EJN Labs to any organisation seeking reliable, detailed, and well-managed penetration testing services, particularly for government or enterprise-level projects.”
“There wasn’t another company we could find that could deliver what we needed in the timeframe we needed. The client loved it, and we got instant ROI from the engagement.”
Visualsoft describes its platform as a curated ecosystem, with marketing, payment and reporting tools built in rather than added through third-party plugins. We test the custom storefront, checkout and integration work built on top of that base, since there is no marketplace of installed apps to review instead.
Why Visualsoft findings sit in your custom build, not an app marketplace
Visualsoft’s own platform pages state that it eliminates the need for paid third-party plugins by integrating marketing tools, payments and reporting directly, and that GDPR, PECR and PCI DSS Level 1 standards are built in. That baseline covers the platform itself, so we test whether your specific storefront configuration and any bespoke checkout step still sits inside it, rather than assuming a built-in standard automatically covers custom work added on top.
The platform is built to support multi-channel selling and to scale to enterprise order volumes for growing and established retailers. We test whether configuration, pricing or customer data set for one channel or brand on a shared account can be reached or changed through another, and how admin and staff roles are separated across them.
Marketing tools such as email campaigns and SMS targeting, CRO features like A/B testing and customer journey analysis, and real-time reporting are all part of the core platform rather than bolted-on integrations. We test how customer contact data reaches those tools, who can export or read reporting output, and how data was handled if your site was migrated onto the platform from elsewhere.
SCOPE
What we pen test on a Visualsoft store
Custom Storefront and Checkout Development
Visualsoft builds a bespoke storefront and checkout for each retailer rather than a shared template. We test that build for logic trusting a value the browser sent instead of one confirmed server-side.
PCI DSS Level 1 Payment Configuration
The platform states it holds PCI DSS Level 1 compliance for payments it processes. We test whether your specific checkout configuration and any custom payment step stay inside that certified boundary.
Admin and Staff Account Permissions
Store administration runs through Visualsoft’s own admin panel rather than a third-party app layer. We test what each staff role can reach and whether access is removed promptly when someone leaves.
Multi-Channel and Multi-Brand Separation
The platform is built to support multi-channel selling and enterprise order volumes on a single account. We test whether data or configuration for one channel or brand can be reached through another.
Integrated Marketing Tools and Customer Data
Email and SMS marketing tools are built into the platform rather than added through a plugin. We test how customer contact data reaches those tools and who can export or read it.
CRO and A/B Testing Data Handling
Built-in conversion tools run A/B tests and customer journey analysis directly against live shopper traffic. We test what data those tools capture and where it is exposed.
Reporting and Analytics Access
Real-time analytics and reporting are part of the core platform rather than a separate integration. We test who can reach reporting data and whether access is scoped to the right staff role.
Migration Data Handling
Visualsoft offers a migration service to move an existing site’s data onto the platform. We test how migrated customer and order records were handled and secured during that move.
Bespoke Customisation Review
Advanced customisation is delivered directly for growing and enterprise retailers rather than through third-party extensions. We test any bespoke feature built for your account on the same basis as the rest of the storefront.
Compliance Configuration Beyond the Baseline
Visualsoft states that GDPR, PECR and PCI DSS standards are built into the platform. We test whether your specific configuration and any custom addition still meets that baseline rather than assuming it does by default.

FAQ
Frequently Asked
What access do you need to test our Visualsoft store?
Staff test accounts covering your different admin roles, plus visibility of any bespoke storefront or checkout feature built for your account. We do not need your main account owner’s login.
Does testing touch live customer or order data?
We work against test data or a staging area wherever your setup allows it, and agree with you during scoping how to handle anything that can only be tested against live data.
Do you test Visualsoft’s own platform or our store?
Your store: the custom storefront, checkout, admin configuration and marketing setup built for your account. Visualsoft’s own core platform infrastructure is not something we test.
What is out of scope?
Visualsoft’s core hosting and platform infrastructure, and the PCI DSS Level 1 certified payment processing itself, unless you specifically ask us to include it.
How long does a Visualsoft store review take?
A single store with a typical amount of bespoke customisation is usually a 2-day scope. Multi-brand or multi-channel setups may need more, which we confirm during scoping.
Does Visualsoft have a vendor testing or disclosure policy?
We confirm Visualsoft’s current terms for security testing directly with you during scoping, since these can change and we would rather quote you the current position than an out of date one.
Can you test custom features Visualsoft built for us?
Yes. Bespoke storefront, checkout and marketing customisations built for your account are the main focus of the review, since there is no third-party app marketplace to test instead.
Do you need our Visualsoft admin login?
No. A staff account created for the engagement, scoped to what we need to test, is enough.
