Security assessments

Security assessments allow you to gauge the state of your IT security using various activities. We advise different types of assessments depending on the desired insights as well as the maturity level.

Vulnerability Assessments and Penetration Testing (a.k.a. pentesting) (VAPT) are two types and their definitions are often used interchangeably. However, there is a distinct difference. The focus of a pentest lies on depth, usually combined with a specific security concern formulated in research question. A vulnerability assessment however, evaluates the assets in scope on the presence of vulnerabilities and weaknesses in a broader sense.

Regardless of your maturity level or security concerns, a suitable assessment to evaluate the resilience of your organization is always available. You can use the outcome to efficiently increase the security posture of your organization.
