Cyber espionage has increased dramatically over the last few years at the government, corporate and individual levels. The cyberspace has become the latest domain of belligerence. There is a crying need for a cohesive global arrangement to address the emerging issues of cyberspace. Apart from trying to cull out information on internet traffic and content usage, many are also trying to secure sensitive data. Even at the corporate level, such activities have increased. The primary target seems to be the data leaks and an access to monitor content. The rate of digital theft growth appears exponential. There are links between leaks and usability of websites. A more usable application will reduce leaks. Terms like navigation, navigational structures, usability, complexity and security are all inter-related. More complex web software will have a complex navigational structure, so poor usability and hence more security flaws. The need is to thoroughly test these websites .Various techniques of black-box, white-box and gray-box testing of websites have been proposed in the literature for extensive and thorough testing of websites. Still the errors escape out. This paper aims to analyze various security threats that are faced due to insufficient testing and proposes an alternative solution for thorough testing of websites. It also compares various web testing CASE tools and proposes a new P3R2 MODEL and a P3R2  tool to test websites more thoroughly.
