Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing
Find exploitable weaknesses, understand their business impact and give engineering teams a clear path to remediation.
Security testing
Turn findings into actionable remediation
Combine agreed scope, attack-surface discovery, automated checks and manual analysis to produce findings that engineers can understand, reproduce and address.
A practical testing flow
Scope → Discover → Validate → Report → RetestKeep authorization, evidence and remediation connected throughout the engagement.
Vulnerability assessment vs penetration testing
Both activities can complement each other, but they answer different questions.
Vulnerability assessment
Identify potential weaknesses across an agreed scope using scanning, configuration review and manual validation.
Penetration testing
Safely attempt to demonstrate whether selected weaknesses can be exploited within agreed rules of engagement.
What we can test
Testing scope is defined around the systems, interfaces and objectives that matter.
Web applications
Authentication, authorization, session handling, input validation and common application risks.
APIs
Endpoint exposure, authorization boundaries, authentication flows and input handling.
Infrastructure
Exposed services, configuration weaknesses, network controls and patch-related risks.
Configuration
Targeted reviews of security-relevant settings within the agreed scope.
Our testing approach
Six stages designed to produce useful evidence without unnecessary operational impact.
Typical deliverables
- Rules of engagement and confirmed test scope
- Executive summary for decision makers
- Technical findings with evidence and risk ratings
- Proof-of-concept details where appropriate
- Remediation guidance for engineering teams
- Retest report for agreed fixes
Common problems
- Scanner-only testing: important business-logic or authorization issues remain untested.
- Unclear scope: assets, environments or test accounts are not agreed before testing.
- Severity without context: findings are ranked without realistic impact or affected-asset context.
- No retest: remediation is marked complete without independent validation.
FAQs
How is VAPT different from vulnerability scanning?
Scanning primarily identifies potential weaknesses through automated checks. Penetration testing adds manual analysis and controlled exploitation to validate whether selected weaknesses can actually be abused.
Can you test production systems?
Testing production requires explicit authorization, careful rules of engagement and appropriate safeguards. The environment should be agreed before testing begins.
Do you retest fixes?
Yes, retesting can be included to validate agreed remediation and provide a clear closure status for findings.
