What Is VAPT?
Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing combines two complementary security activities. Vulnerability assessment identifies potential weaknesses within the authorized scope. Penetration testing validates relevant weaknesses through controlled security testing to determine exploitability and potential impact. The objective is to move beyond a list of vulnerabilities and establish:
Why Do Organizations Need VAPT?
Security controls reduce exposure, but they do not eliminate the possibility of exploitable weaknesses. VAPT helps organizations:
- Identify security weaknesses across their attack surface
- Validate relevant security controls
- Understand exploitable risks and attack paths
- Prioritize remediation based on risk and business impact
- Validate fixes through re-testing
- Support applicable security and compliance requirements
VAPT Assessment Process
A structured VAPT engagement moves from defining the assessment objective to validating remediation.
NuageSEC’s published VAPT methodology describes a structured process covering discovery, reconnaissance, threat modeling, scanning, manual exploitation, risk analysis and reporting.
