Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing

VAPT (Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing) pairs a broad vulnerability assessment - enumerating weaknesses across a target - with penetration testing that exploits selected findings to prove impact. The assessment provides breadth; the pentest provides depth and validation.

Key points

  • Assessment = breadth of findings; pentest = depth and proof.
  • Common term in compliance and services contexts.
  • Autonomous platforms deliver both continuously rather than as a one-off.
