VAPT for Web, Cloud, Network & Infrastructure Security
Penetration Testing That Exposes Real Risk — Before Attackers Do
Simulate real-world cyberattacks with Webpuppies’ VAPT services. From web applications to cloud and infrastructure, we uncover vulnerabilities that audits miss — and give you the clarity to fix them fast.
What Is VAPT
— and Why It Matters
VAPT stands for Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing.
It’s a two-part process:
Vulnerability Assessment
Finds weaknesses in your systems — like unpatched software, misconfigured firewalls, or exposed APIs.
Penetration Testing
Takes it further by actively exploiting those weaknesses in a controlled environment — showing exactly how far an attacker could go, and what they could access.
Unlike static audits or automated scans, VAPT simulates real-world cyberattacks. It’s the closest you can get to being breached – without the consequences.
Not sure if penetration testing is right for your environment? Let’s talk through it.
Compliance Readiness
Meet requirements for PDPA, ISO 27001, MAS TRM, and other regulatory frameworks by demonstrating you’ve tested systems against real-world attack techniques.
Pre-Launch Risk Testing
Incident Follow-Up
Post-Audit Verification
Already have a list of vulnerabilities? VAPT validates which ones can be exploited — and how urgently they need fixing.
Procurement & Vendor Risk Assessments
Show enterprise clients you take security seriously by providing third-party validated VAPT reports — often a procurement gatekeeper.
Why Audits Aren’t Enough: Passive vs. Active Testing
A cybersecurity audit gives you visibility: it surfaces vulnerabilities, flags policy gaps, and checks for misalignment with compliance frameworks.
But it doesn’t show how those weaknesses could actually be used against you.
That’s where penetration testing comes in.
Audits are passive
They observe and report.
VAPT is active.
It simulates real attacks to prove what’s exploitable — and how far an attacker could go.
Examples:
01
An audit might tell you that your login page has weak rate-limiting.
A pen test shows you how that weakness could be used to brute-force admin credentials and access sensitive data.
02
If you only audit, you know what’s exposed.
If you run a VAPT, you know what’s at risk — and how to fix it before it’s exploited.
What’s Included in a Webpuppies VAPT Engagement
Reconnaissance & Intelligence Gathering
We begin with non-intrusive information gathering — identifying exposed assets, open ports, subdomains, outdated services, and weak entry points. This step simulates what a real attacker would discover before even attempting an intrusion.
Exploitation (Manual + Automated)
Using a combination of automated tools and manual techniques, our testers actively attempt to exploit identified weaknesses — whether it’s through web apps, misconfigured servers, APIs, or authentication flaws.
This stage simulates how far an attacker could go once inside.
Detailed Report with Severity Scoring & Remediation Guidance
Your report is structured for both technical and executive stakeholders. It includes:
- A prioritized list of vulnerabilities
- CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) ratings
- Business impact explanations
- Recommended remediation strategies
- Timeline guidance for critical fixes
Proof-of-Concept (PoC) Documentation
We provide concrete examples of how vulnerabilities were exploited — including screenshots, payloads used, and the impact achieved. This evidence strengthens your case internally and during procurement or compliance reviews.
Optional Re-Testing & Validation
Need confirmation that vulnerabilities have been properly resolved? We offer re-testing sessions with comparative reports — so you can confidently close the loop with your security or compliance team.

Types of Penetration Testing We Offer
Different attack surfaces demand different strategies.
We tailor each engagement to your infrastructure, risk profile, and compliance requirements.
Web Application Penetration Testing
Simulates attacks on your public or internal web apps — including injection attacks, authentication flaws, session handling, and broken access controls.
Ideal for ecommerce, portals, and SaaS platforms.
Network Penetration Testing
Tests your network perimeter and internal segments for misconfigurations, open ports, unpatched services, and lateral movement.
Available for both internal (LAN) and external (internet-facing) networks.
Cloud Infrastructure Testing
Identifies cloud-specific misconfigurations (IAM policies, exposed buckets, insecure keys, etc.) across platforms like AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Helps validate your shared responsibility posture.
Not Sure What Type of Test You Need?
Whether you’re launching a new product, preparing for compliance, or validating fixes after an audit — we’ll help you scope the right type of penetration test for your business.
When to Schedule a Penetration Test
Penetration testing isn’t just for post-breach cleanup — it’s most valuable before attackers find the gap.
Here’s when businesses typically bring us in:
Before Launching a New Product or Platform
Validate your application or infrastructure before it goes live. Prevent PR disasters and ensure your first users aren’t the first attackers.
After a Major Infrastructure Change
Migrated to the cloud? Updated core systems? VAPT ensures no misconfigurations were introduced during the transition.
Following a Security Audit
Already have a list of vulnerabilities? Pen testing shows which ones are actually exploitable — and how to prioritize them.
To Meet Compliance or Procurement Requirements
Penetration testing is often required under ISO 27001, PDPA, MAS TRM, or as part of enterprise vendor onboarding.
On a Scheduled Quarterly or Annual Basis
Proactive companies include VAPT in their security calendar — especially those managing sensitive data, fintech platforms, or regulated services.
Frequently Asked Questions about
Penetration Testing
Vulnerability scanning is automated and identifies known issues. Penetration testing simulates real-world attacks — manually exploiting those vulnerabilities to reveal what’s actually at risk.
Audits are passive and focus on policy, compliance, and general risk. VAPT is active and technical — showing how an attacker could exploit real weaknesses across your apps, systems, or infrastructure.
No — tests are scoped, controlled, and non-destructive. We coordinate with your team to ensure minimal impact, especially during working hours.
Yes. We partner with vetted CREST-certified testers to meet the standards required by regulated industries and enterprise procurement processes.
We offer web application testing, internal/external network testing, cloud infrastructure assessments, mobile app testing, and optional simulations like phishing or DDoS.
It’s commonly required or recommended under PDPA, ISO 27001, MAS TRM, and other frameworks — especially if you process sensitive or regulated data.
Most organizations test annually or quarterly. You should also test after launching a new system, completing a security audit, or making major infrastructure changes.
A detailed report with exploited vulnerabilities, business impact scoring, proof-of-concept (PoC) examples, and clear remediation steps — written for both technical and business teams.
Yes. We offer post-test advisory support and can work with your internal dev or infra teams to validate remediation and conduct re-testing if needed.
It starts with a discovery call. We’ll assess your environment, risk profile, and goals — then recommend a VAPT scope that fits your budget, compliance needs, and infrastructure type.
