Vulnerability assessment & penetration testing (VAPT)
Find the weaknesses before an attacker does.
Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing with risk-ranked findings, fix guidance and a retest.
Why teams call us
Problems this solves
-
01
Customers ask for a security report
Enterprise buyers and partners increasingly ask for a recent penetration test before they sign.
-
02
Scanner output nobody can act on
Automated scans produce long lists of findings without context, priority or proof.
-
03
A regulator or auditor expects testing
Frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS and sector regulators expect regular security testing.
-
04
A release is coming
A new app, a major feature or a cloud move changes your attack surface before anyone has tested it.
Our approach
A vulnerability assessment finds and lists weaknesses. A penetration test goes further: a tester tries to exploit them, chains them together and shows what an attacker could actually reach. We do both, in one engagement, so you get breadth and proof.
Testing follows recognised methods (OWASP Testing Guide, OWASP ASVS, PTES and NIST SP 800-115), with manual work guided by tools rather than replaced by them. Every finding comes with evidence, a risk rating, business impact and clear steps to fix it, and fixed issues are retested.

How an engagement runs
Every engagement starts with a signed agreement and an advance payment as set out in your proposal. Work begins once both are complete.
-
01
Scope and authorise
Targets, test type (black, grey or white box), windows and rules of engagement agreed in writing.
-
02
Test
Reconnaissance, automated discovery and manual exploitation within the agreed scope.
-
03
Report
Risk-ranked findings with evidence, impact and fix guidance, walked through on a call.
-
04
Retest
Your fixes are retested and a closure report is issued.
