Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) is a comprehensive security practice that helps organizations identify, evaluate, and fix weaknesses in their IT systems.

  • A Vulnerability Assessment scans systems, applications, and networks to detect known security gaps.

  • Penetration Testing, on the other hand, goes a step further by simulating real-world attacks to exploit those weaknesses, showing how far a cybercriminal could go.

Together, VAPT provides both visibility and validation, highlighting security flaws and testing defenses against potential threats. For businesses, this means stronger data protection, compliance with regulations, and reduced risk of costly breaches.

By adopting VAPT regularly, organizations can ensure their infrastructure remains resilient against ever-evolving cyberattacks.
