Why Is Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing Important for Businesses Today?

In today’s digital landscape, cyberattacks are no longer a matter of if but when. Organizations handle sensitive customer data, financial information, and critical business operations, all of which are prime targets for cybercriminals. This is why Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) has become an essential part of modern cybersecurity strategies.

Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing work in two stages:

**1. **Vulnerability assessment identifies weaknesses in applications, networks, and systems.

2. Penetration Testing simulates real-world cyberattacks to see how exploitable those weaknesses are.

Together, VAPT not only detects risks but also validates whether those risks could cause real harm to your business.
