Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing
We find the exploit before they do.
Comprehensive identification, analysis, and controlled exploitation of security weaknesses across infrastructure, applications, and networks.
VAPT engagements uncover real-world attack paths across infrastructure, applications, and networks. The engagement delivers prioritized remediation guidance to strengthen overall security posture, with an executive summary for leadership and a technical plan for engineering.
- Executive summary
- Technical findings report (CVSS-scored)
- Prioritized remediation roadmap
- Retest certification
- Attack narrative replay package
- Validated attack surface with proof-of-concept evidence
- Prioritized remediation backlog wired to your ticketing system
- Board-ready executive summary + technical appendix
- Retest certificate for audit evidence
How the engagement runs. Phase by phase.
Scoping & rules of engagement
Targets, in/out-of-scope, emergency contacts, escalation matrix, legal authorization.
Reconnaissance & enumeration
Passive OSINT, active service discovery, technology fingerprinting, credential exposure review.
Vulnerability discovery
Authenticated and unauthenticated scanning, manual verification, false-positive triage.
Exploitation & pivoting
Chained-vulnerability POCs, privilege escalation, lateral movement where authorized.
Reporting & readout
Executive briefing, technical report, developer-facing remediation tickets, live walkthrough call.
Retest & certification
Verify each closed finding, update status, issue a signed retest certificate.
What we actually use. No secrets.

How we do the work. Not just what.
Black-box external
Only the IP range and engagement letter. Mimics an unauthenticated external adversary: DNS, OSINT, credential spraying within scope.
Grey-box internal
Assumed-breach start on a standard-user laptop. Privilege escalation, lateral movement, and domain compromise paths.
White-box application
Source access with auth tokens. Authenticated flows, business-logic abuse, IDOR, SSRF, deserialization.
OWASP ASVS / WSTG
Application testing mapped to ASVS Level 2/3 and OWASP WSTG for traceability in your GRC tooling.
MITRE ATT&CK mapping
Every finding is tagged with the ATT&CK technique ID so blue teams can mirror detections.
Safe-exploit discipline
No destructive actions without written authorization. Rollback plan is part of every POC.
Real problems. Real fixes.
Anonymized incidents from actual engagements: what broke, why it mattered, and how we fixed it.
Legacy JSP app with 14 years of patches: scanners returned 900+ false positives.
Previous vendor's report was unreadable; engineering triaged it as noise and shipped nothing.
Manual-first approach: verified each scanner hit, deduped against the SBOM, and delivered 38 real issues grouped by root cause, 3 of which chained into unauth RCE.
Client's production WAF blocked our scanners on day one.
Risk of a test that only measures the WAF, not the underlying app.
Coordinated an allow-list for a dedicated test egress IP during business hours, then re-tested with the WAF in-line to measure detection coverage separately.
OT environment where any service crash would halt a production line.
Standard scans were off-limits; executives still needed an honest security signal.
Passive taps + protocol-aware probes; active testing only on a duplicate rig built from config exports. Findings translated to the live system with customer change-control.
Engagement data flow
How authorization, findings, and evidence move through a VAPT engagement.
Targets, not promises.
Will this take down production?
Can you test our cloud + on-prem together?
Do you re-test after we fix the findings?
How is this different from a vulnerability scanner?
