A VAPT (Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing) report documents security weaknesses found in your systems, rates each by severity, and recommends fixes. It combines automated vulnerability scanning with manual penetration testing that simulates a real attacker.
Vulnerability assessment vs penetration testing
A vulnerability assessment scans broadly for known weaknesses; penetration testing goes further, with a tester actively trying to exploit them to show real-world impact. VAPT combines both.
What the report contains
An executive summary, a list of findings with severity ratings (critical/high/medium/low), technical evidence, and prioritised remediation recommendations.
How to act on it
Fix critical and high findings first, retest to confirm closure, and build the recurring issues into your patching and configuration standards.
Who needs VAPT
Businesses handling sensitive data, those with compliance requirements, and any organisation wanting assurance before or after a major system change.
