There is a widespread internet usage and security has become prime importance. The almost universal use of mobile and web applications makes systems vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Vulnerability assessment can help identify the loopholes in a system while Penetration Testing is a proof-of-concept approach to explore and exploit a vulnerability. 

Globally, statistics show that more than 70 per cent of the applications either have vulnerabilities which could potentially be exploited by a hacker, or worse, they have already been exploited.

For those who are new to Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT), this is a technical assessment process to find security bugs in a software program or a computer network. The network may be a LAN or WAN, while the software program can be a .exe running on a server or desktop, a Web/cloud application or a mobile application.
