Our Process

1

Planning & Scoping

We define the testing boundaries, objectives, and rules of engagement with your team. This includes identifying target systems, testing windows, and exclusion lists to ensure business continuity.

2

Reconnaissance

Our team gathers intelligence on your digital footprint using both passive and active reconnaissance techniques — discovering subdomains, open ports, running services, and potential entry points.

3

Vulnerability Scanning

We deploy automated scanning tools combined with manual verification to identify known vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and weak security controls across your entire infrastructure.

4

Exploitation

In a controlled environment, we attempt to exploit identified vulnerabilities to determine their real-world impact. This validates whether vulnerabilities are actually exploitable and assesses the potential damage.

5

Post-Exploitation

We assess what an attacker could achieve after initial compromise — privilege escalation, lateral movement, data exfiltration, and persistence mechanisms are all evaluated in detail.

6

Reporting & Remediation

You receive a comprehensive report with prioritized findings, CVSS scores, detailed remediation steps, and an executive summary. We also offer a re-testing phase to confirm all issues are resolved.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing?

A Vulnerability Assessment (VA) uses automated tools to identify and catalog known vulnerabilities across your systems. Penetration Testing (PT) goes further — human testers manually attempt to exploit vulnerabilities to determine real-world impact, including chaining exploits for deeper access. VAPT combines both approaches for comprehensive coverage.

How often should we conduct VAPT?

We recommend full VAPT at least annually or whenever significant infrastructure changes occur. Quarterly vulnerability scans are recommended for continuous visibility. Organizations in regulated industries (finance, healthcare) may require more frequent testing.

Will penetration testing disrupt our operations?

All testing is conducted under carefully defined rules of engagement with your approval. We schedule tests during agreed windows and exclude critical production systems where necessary. Our team takes every precaution to avoid service disruption.

What deliverables do we receive after VAPT?

You receive a comprehensive report including: executive summary for non-technical stakeholders, technical findings with CVSS v3 scores, proof-of-concept evidence for each finding, prioritized remediation roadmap, and a re-test report confirming fixes. A debrief meeting is also included.

How long does a typical VAPT engagement take?

Timeline depends on scope. A standard external pentest for a mid-size organization takes 1-2 weeks for testing and 1 week for reporting. Larger engagements with internal testing, web applications, and social engineering can take 3-6 weeks total.
