What VAPT actually is — and what most Delhi quotes hide

VAPT is two disciplines run as one engagement. The vulnerability assessment is wide and automated: scanners enumerate known weaknesses across your applications and infrastructure. The penetration test is narrow and human: a certified tester tries to actually exploit what was found, chain findings together, and demonstrate real impact — “we reached your customer table from the contact form” rather than “port 3306 is open”.

The uncomfortable truth about the Delhi VAPT market: a large share of cheap “penetration tests” are a scanner run with a logo on the PDF. If a quote arrives without a scoping call, promises a two-day turnaround on a full application, or costs less than a mid-range phone, you are buying a scan. A scan has value — but a client's security questionnaire, an ISO auditor and a real attacker will all find the difference immediately.

VAPT services for Delhi businesses

Every engagement is scoped in writing, tested manually on top of scanners, and closed with a retest — the parts cheap VAPT skips.

1. Web application VAPT

OWASP Top 10 tested in practice, not from a checklist: authentication and session handling, access control between user roles, injection, business-logic abuse. Every finding comes with reproduction steps and a fix your developer can apply.

2. API penetration testing

The layer built for your app and almost never reviewed on its own — broken object-level authorisation, mass assignment, weak JWT handling, rate-limit gaps. Usually the weakest surface a Delhi SaaS or e-commerce firm owns.

3. Mobile app VAPT (Android / iOS)

Static and dynamic analysis: insecure local storage, certificate-pinning gaps, hardcoded secrets, API abuse from the app's own traffic. Report maps to OWASP MASVS so fixes are verifiable.

4. Network & infrastructure testing

External and internal: exposed services, default and reused credentials, unpatched systems, weak segmentation between office and server networks. Delhi offices with a Nehru Place-assembled network almost always fail this first.

5. Cloud configuration review

AWS, Azure and GCP: public storage buckets, over-permissive IAM, unrotated keys, missing logging. Misconfiguration — not exotic exploits — is the most common cause of accidental data exposure we find.

6. Retest & closure verification

After your team fixes the findings, we test them again and issue a closure summary stating what was fixed and verified. Included in the engagement — not sold back to you as a second project.

How the engagement runs — five steps, no surprises

1. Scoping call

What you have (apps, IPs, APIs), what matters most, and what a client, partner or auditor is actually asking you for. You get a fixed written scope and quote — no per-page surprises later.

2. Written authorisation

Testing starts only after a signed authorisation and NDA. It defines targets, test windows and emergency contacts. Any "VAPT company" willing to start without this is telling you how they treat rules.

3. Testing — scanners plus hands

Automated scanning finds the known; manual testing finds what matters — chained logic flaws, access-control breaks between roles, the bugs scanners structurally cannot see. Critical findings are flagged to you the day they are confirmed, not held for the report.

4. The report

Two layers: an executive summary a non-technical owner can read in five minutes, and a technical section with severity ratings (CVSS), reproduction steps, evidence and specific fixes. A raw scanner export is not a report; we do not send those.

5. Retest & closure letter

Your team fixes, we verify, and you get a dated closure summary you can show a client or auditor. That letter — not the scary findings list — is usually what the business actually needed.

What VAPT really costs in Delhi (2026)

Published so you can sanity-check any quote — including ours. These are the honest market bands across the Delhi NCR VAPT market this year.

ScopeDelhi market bandWhat it really buys
Automated scan only (what many cheap quotes really are)₹10,000–₹30,000A scanner run with a logo on the PDF. Fine as a first look; not penetration testing.
Single web application — manual + automated VAPT₹40,000–₹2,50,000The honest market band for real manual testing on one app, by size and complexity.
Web + API + mobile combined₹1,00,000–₹5,00,000Scales with endpoint count and user roles.
Enterprise / full-scope (apps + network + cloud)₹1,50,000–₹12,00,000+Multi-week engagements for larger Delhi firms and compliance-driven scopes.

Cyber Defence quotes after a free scoping call: fixed scope, fixed price, critical findings reported same-day, retest and closure letter included. No per-page charges invented mid-engagement, and if all you actually need is a scan and a hardening checklist, we will say so — it costs less and we would rather be the firm you call back next year.

Compliance and client audits

Most Delhi firms buy their first VAPT because someone demanded proof: an enterprise client's vendor questionnaire, an ISO 27001 auditor checking technical vulnerability management, PCI DSS for card flows, or an investor's due-diligence list. Our reports follow the structure those reviewers expect — scope, methodology, CVSS-rated findings, evidence, retest annexure — and are framed for the specific control being checked.

Straight answer on CERT-In: we are not a CERT-In empanelled auditor, and a small set of engagements — mainly government tenders that name empanelment — legally require one. If that is your case we will tell you in the scoping call, before you spend anything. For client security demands, ISO/PCI evidence and actually fixing your vulnerabilities, empanelment is not required. Cyber Defence is GeM registered for government procurement.

Who gets tested — Delhi industries we work with

E-commerce & D2C sellers

Payment flows, coupon and wallet abuse, account takeover — the attacks that directly cost money.

Exporters & trading firms (Okhla, Chandni Chowk, Azadpur)

Business email compromise starts with a weak mail or ERP setup; we test the surface those attacks actually use.

Clinics, labs & hospitals

Patient records are regulated data. A leak is a legal problem, not just an IT one.

SaaS & IT vendors (Nehru Place, Jasola, Netaji Subhash Place)

Enterprise clients now demand a security report before signing. We produce one you can actually show.

Schools, coaching & edtech

Student PII plus online fee payment makes a soft, high-volume target.

CA firms & professional services

One compromised workstation exposes every client's financials. Small scope, high stakes.

VAPT across Delhi — every business district covered

Testing is delivered remotely, so a firm in Connaught Place gets the same engagement as one in Janakpuri. On-site visits for internal network work are arranged across Delhi NCR when the scope needs them.

Why Delhi firms pick Cyber Defence for VAPT

A named, verifiable tester

Engagements are led by Amit Kumar (CEH, CRTA — verify both with the issuing bodies), not an anonymous "expert team". You know who tested your systems and can talk to them.

We teach this for a living

The same lab that trains penetration testers runs your test. Trainers cannot hide behind scanner output — explaining attacks clearly is literally our day job, and the report shows it.

Fix-ready reporting

Reproduction steps a developer can follow, severity your management can rank, and a closure letter your client or auditor will accept. No 300-page scanner dump.

Honest scoping

If a scan is all you need, we quote a scan. If you need a CERT-In empanelled firm, we say so before you spend. The cheapest way to keep a client for years is to never oversell them once.

VAPT company in Delhi — FAQs

What is VAPT?

VAPT stands for Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing. Vulnerability assessment is the broad scan — finding known weaknesses across your systems. Penetration testing is the deep, manual attempt to actually exploit them the way an attacker would, under written authorisation. A real VAPT engagement does both and ends in a report with severity ratings, reproduction steps and fixes.

How much does VAPT cost in Delhi?

The honest Delhi market bands in 2026: ₹10,000–₹30,000 buys an automated scan, ₹40,000–₹2,50,000 is the realistic range for manual VAPT on a single web application, and full-scope enterprise engagements run ₹1.5 lakh to ₹12 lakh+. Quotes far below these bands are almost always a scanner run relabelled as a pentest. Cyber Defence quotes after a scoping call — fixed scope, fixed price, retest included.

How long does a VAPT engagement take?

A single web application typically takes 5–10 working days of testing plus 2–3 days for the report. Combined web + API + mobile scopes run 2–4 weeks. Network and cloud reviews depend on host count. The retest after your fixes usually takes 2–3 days. You get dates in the written scope before we start.

Will testing break my website or take it down?

No — the rules of engagement exclude denial-of-service by default, testing windows are agreed in advance, and anything potentially disruptive is tested against a staging copy or explicitly approved first. In hundreds of tests the practical risk to a production site from scoped, professional VAPT is far lower than the risk of staying untested.

What is the difference between vulnerability assessment and penetration testing?

A vulnerability assessment is wide and mostly automated: it lists known weaknesses with severity scores. A penetration test is narrow and manual: a tester actually exploits weaknesses, chains them together and shows real impact — "we reached your customer database" rather than "port 3306 is open". Compliance often needs both; that combination is the VA + PT in VAPT.

How often should a Delhi business get VAPT done?

Annually at minimum, plus a retest after any major release, infrastructure change or security incident. Firms under compliance pressure (PCI DSS, ISO 27001, client contracts) typically test annually with quarterly scans in between. If you have never been tested, the first engagement matters far more than the schedule.

What does the VAPT report contain?

An executive summary in plain language, a scope and methodology section, findings ordered by severity with CVSS ratings, screenshots and reproduction steps as evidence, specific remediation advice per finding, and after your fixes, a retest annexure verifying closure. The report is written so a developer can fix from it and an auditor or client can accept it.

Can your VAPT report be used for ISO 27001, PCI DSS or client audits?

Yes. The report follows the structure auditors expect — scope, methodology, CVSS-rated findings, evidence and a retest annexure — and we align it to the control your auditor is checking (for example ISO 27001 A.8 technical vulnerability management, or a client's vendor-security questionnaire). Tell us the audit context in the scoping call and the report is framed for it.

Are you a CERT-In empanelled auditor?

No, and we will say so before you spend money — unlike listings that imply it. A small set of audits (for example some government tenders) legally require a CERT-In empanelled organisation; if that is your case we will tell you upfront so you procure the right thing. For everything else — client security demands, ISO/PCI evidence, actually finding and fixing your vulnerabilities — empanelment is not required, and Cyber Defence is GeM registered for government procurement of training and services.

Is the testing done remotely or on-site in Delhi?

Most VAPT work — web, API, mobile, external network, cloud — is delivered fully remotely, which is also how the attacks you are defending against arrive. Internal network testing and awareness sessions can be arranged on-site in Delhi NCR when the scope needs it. We do not list a Delhi office address we do not have; our lab is at the Hisar campus.

Do you sign an NDA before testing?

Yes — an NDA plus a written authorisation letter defining targets, test windows and emergency contacts is signed before any testing begins. Your data, findings and even the fact that you were tested stay confidential. This paperwork protects you legally too: authorised testing is legal in India, unauthorised access is an offence under the IT Act, 2000.

Who actually performs the testing?

Engagements are led by Amit Kumar — CEH (EC-Council) and CRTA certified, founder of Cyber Defence, who also trains the penetration-testing courses our students take. You can verify the certifications with the issuing bodies. No anonymous "team of experts": you know who tested your systems and can talk to them.

VAPT kya hai aur Delhi ki company ko kyu karana chahiye?

VAPT matlab aapke website, app, API aur network ki authorised security testing — jo kamzori ek attacker dhundh sakta hai, use pehle hum dhundh kar likhit report dete hain, fix karne ke steps ke saath.
