Vulnerability assessment finds the weaknesses. Penetration testing proves which ones matter. We run both as one engagement for banks, fintechs, telecoms, software houses and regulated companies in Pakistan, and for international teams who want a partner with a research pedigree. Our founders' disclosures have been publicly acknowledged by 58 companies, including Adobe, Sony and IBM.
Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing answer different questions. An assessment asks what is exposed: it sweeps hosts, applications and configurations, ranks every weakness and hands you a complete inventory. A penetration test asks what an attacker could do with it: a human tester takes the promising findings, chains them, bypasses controls and shows the business impact. Run only the first and you get a long list nobody has verified. Run only the second and you miss the long tail. VAPT pairs them, so one report carries both breadth and proof.
In Pakistan, VAPT is driven by regulators and customers, not only security teams. Banks and fintechs work under State Bank of Pakistan technology governance and cybersecurity expectations. Telecom operators and ISPs answer to PTA cybersecurity regulations, and SECP guidance covers other regulated companies. Software houses exporting to the US, EU and GCC feel it from clients instead: enterprise buyers want a recent pentest report before they sign. ISO 27001, SOC 2 and PCI DSS audits expect the same evidence.
Zencryptix delivers VAPT the way its founders learned it as independent researchers and bug-bounty hunters. Scanners give us coverage; testers holding OSCP, eWPTX and PNPT do the rest by hand, working to OWASP, PTES and NIST SP 800-115. You receive an executive summary, a technical report with a reproducible proof of concept for every finding, a severity-mapped remediation roadmap and one retest once fixes ship. We are headquartered in Pakistan and serve clients worldwide, remote-first, with on-site work available for internal network or physical scope.
Customer portals, admin panels and single-page apps tested by hand against OWASP Top 10 and ASVS, with the time spent where automated tools fall short: access control and business logic.
Android and iOS apps assessed against OWASP MASVS and MASTG: local storage, API traffic, runtime protections and the backend the app depends on.
Your internet-facing perimeter and your internal estate, Active Directory included. From one exposed service to domain compromise, with every step documented.
REST, GraphQL and gRPC services tested against the OWASP API Security Top 10, with particular focus on object-level and function-level authorisation.
AWS, Azure and GCP configuration review against CIS Benchmarks, paired with hands-on testing of IAM paths, storage exposure and container workloads.
Testing scoped and written up against the control set you are being assessed on: ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, or an SBP or PTA review. Evidence packaged the way auditors ask for it.
NDA first. Then we define assets, test windows, credentials and exclusions, agree the Rules of Engagement and send a detailed quote within 48 hours of scoping.
Authenticated and unauthenticated scanning across the agreed scope, followed by manual triage. Every result is validated before it goes anywhere near the report.
Certified testers take the validated weaknesses and work them by hand: chaining, escalating and proving impact. Critical findings are reported the moment they are confirmed.
An executive summary for the board, a technical report with reproducible PoCs for engineers, and a severity-mapped remediation roadmap. We walk your team through it on a private call.
Once fixes ship, we retest the reported findings and issue an updated report. On a clean retest we add an attestation letter you can hand to auditors, regulators or clients.
Our founders' disclosures have been publicly acknowledged by 58 companies, including Adobe, Sony, Dell, Walmart, IBM and the U.S. Department of Defense. The same tradecraft goes into your engagement.
OSCP, eWPTX and PNPT testers work alongside ISO 27001 Lead Auditor, CISA and SOC 2 practitioners. The report is written by people who know both what breaks and what an auditor will ask.
Same time zone as your team, WhatsApp on hand, and on-site work anywhere in the country when the scope needs it. We are members of P@SHA and PSEB, and the methodology and report format are the ones our clients abroad receive.
