Vulnerability Assessment and
Penetration Testing

Vulnerability assessments and penetration testing are like security check-ups for your network.
They help you identify and fix any weak spots before they can be exploited.

Vulnerability Assessment and
Penetration Testing

Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) is the process of identifying, evaluating, and mitigating vulnerabilities in a computer system, network, or web application. The process typically includes both automated and manual testing methods to identify potential security weaknesses. VAPT is an important step in maintaining the overall security of an organization's systems and networks, as it helps to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers. It helps organizations to improve their security posture and minimize the risk of security breaches.

Why do a Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing ?

Identify exploitable vulnerabilities

VAPT goes beyond identifying potential vulnerabilities, it also attempts to exploit them to determine if they can actually be used to gain unauthorized access to a system or network.

Improve security posture

By identifying and addressing vulnerabilities, organizations can improve their overall security posture and reduce the risk of security breaches.

Compliance

Many industries have regulations and compliance requirements that mandate regular VAPT. For example, PCI DSS requires regular VAPT for organizations that process credit card transactions.

Identify

Unknown vulnerabilities: VAPT can identify unknown vulnerabilities that might not be detected by automated vulnerability scanning tools.

Simulate real-world attacks

VAPT simulates real-world attacks on a system to identify vulnerabilities that might be exploited by actual attackers.

Our VAPT Services Includes

Web Application Security
Identifying, evaluating, and mitigating vulnerabilities in web applications. The process typically includes both automated and manual testing methods to identify potential security weaknesses.
Red Team Services
Red team services refer to a type of simulated cyber-attack performed by a team of security experts, known as a "red team," on an organization's IT systems, networks, and physical assets to identify vulnerabilities and test the effectiveness of the organization's security measures.
External Penetration Testing Services
External penetration testing services refer to a type of simulated cyber-attack that is conducted from outside an organization's network. The goal of external penetration testing is to identify vulnerabilities in the organization's perimeter defenses, such as firewalls, routers, and web servers.
Active Directory Assessment
Active Directory (AD) assessment is the process of evaluating the security of an organization's AD infrastructure. AD assessments are designed to identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in an AD environment that could be exploited.
Network Penetration Testing
Network penetration testing is the process of simulating an attack on a computer network to identify and exploit vulnerabilities. A Network penetration testing is typically conducted by a team of security experts who use a combination of manual and automated.
Mobile Application Testing
Mobile Application Penetration Testing is the process of identifying, evaluating, and mitigating vulnerabilities in mobile applications. It simulates an attack on a mobile application to identify security weaknesses and exploitable vulnerabilities.
Network Architecture Review
A Network Architecture Review is the process of evaluating the design and configuration of an organization's network to identify vulnerabilities and potential weaknesses that could be exploited by attackers. The goal of a NAR is to ensure that the network is properly configured to protect sensitive data.
Configuration Audit
A Configuration Audit is the process of evaluating the configuration of an organization's systems and devices to ensure they are properly configured to meet security standards and best practices. This includes reviewing settings, policies, and procedures to identify any misconfigurations.
Vulnerability Assessment
Vulnerability assessment is the process of identifying, classifying, and prioritizing vulnerabilities in a system. It is typically done by running automated tools that scan the system for known vulnerabilities and then reporting the results to the system administrator.
Database Security Assessment
A Database Security Assessment is the process of identifying, evaluating, and mitigating vulnerabilities in a database system. It simulates an attack on a database to identify security weaknesses and exploitable vulnerabilities.
Cloud security Assessments
Cloud security assessments are the process of identifying, evaluating, and mitigating vulnerabilities in cloud-based systems and services. It simulates an attack on a cloud infrastructure to identify security weaknesses and exploitable vulnerabilities.

How does it Works


1. Information Gathering

Our Experts will gather information about the infrastructure/services/ applications, and the security controls in place.


2. Vulnerability Scanning

Automated tools are used to scan the environment for known vulnerabilities.


3. Manual Testing

Manual testing is used to identify vulnerabilities that may not be detected by automated tools, such as misconfigurations and logic flaws.


4. Exploitation

Attempts are made to exploit identified vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access to the environment and its resources.


5. Reporting

The results of the vulnerability assessment and penetration testing are reported to the organization, including a list of vulnerabilities, their severity, and recommendations for remediation.
