Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing

Our penetration testing service gives you an attacker's view of your systems before a real attacker gets one. Certified testers work through your web applications, mobile apps, APIs and networks inside a scope and rules of engagement that you approve in writing, then show you exactly what they could reach and how to stop it.

Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing (VAPT) combines two kinds of work. The assessment maps and rates every weakness we can find, using automated scanning followed by manual triage so you are not handed a list of false positives. The penetration test then safely exploits the findings that matter, chaining them together the way an attacker would, so you can see the real business impact: whose data could be read, which payments could be altered, which accounts could be taken over.

Most of our VAPT engagements in Kenya are for banks, SACCOs, fintechs, insurers, SaaS platforms and public institutions preparing for an audit, a regulator review or a major release. Many regulators and enterprise customers now expect independent testing at least once a year and after significant change. We plan testing windows around your business hours, can work against a staging environment, and escalate any critical finding to your nominated contact the same day rather than waiting for the final report.

Every engagement ends with two documents: an executive summary written for your board and management, and a technical report with reproduction steps, evidence, CVSS v4 scores and remediation guidance specific to your technology stack. After your team has fixed the findings we retest them at no extra cost and issue an attestation letter you can share with auditors, partners and customers. Testers sign an NDA before scoping, findings are stored encrypted, and only the contacts you nominate receive the results.

If you are not sure what to test first, start with whatever handles money or personal data and faces the internet: internet banking, customer portals, mobile apps and their APIs. A scoping call with one of our consultants takes thirty minutes, costs nothing and ends with a written proposal that lists exactly what will be tested, by whom, over which dates and at what fixed price.
