About VAPT — Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing
VAPT (Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing) is a comprehensive cybersecurity evaluation service that identifies security weaknesses in IT systems, networks, web applications, APIs, and cloud environments before they can be exploited by malicious actors. VAPT is required by ISO 27001:2022 (Annex A control 8.8), financial regulators across Asia, and increasingly by corporate clients as a condition of supplier approval.

Frequently Asked Questions
A vulnerability assessment scans and identifies known vulnerabilities in systems. Penetration testing goes further — actively attempting to exploit identified vulnerabilities to determine actual exploitability and impact. VAPT combines both approaches.
ISO 27001 recommends regular VAPT. Most organisations conduct VAPT annually, after significant system changes, and before major product launches. Financial sector regulators in Singapore (MAS), Hong Kong (HKMA), and India (RBI) have specific VAPT frequency requirements.
CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) is an industry-standard framework for rating the severity of security vulnerabilities. ISOAsia's VAPT reports provide CVSS scores for all identified vulnerabilities, enabling prioritised remediation.
