Capabilities

Full-Spectrum Cyber Defense

From phishing employees to breaching cloud firewalls, we cover every vector.

Web App VAPT

Comprehensive testing of OWASP Top 10 & business logic. We find XSS, SQLi, and logic flaws before hackers do.

API Assessment

Securing REST & GraphQL endpoints. We test for BOLA, Broken Auth, and excessive data exposure risks.

Cloud Security

AWS, Azure & GCP Configuration Review. Identifying IAM privilege escalations, open S3 buckets, and weak security groups.

Spear Phishing

Human-layer security testing. We simulate sophisticated email attacks to test employee awareness and incident response.

Network Security

Internal & External Infrastructure testing. Detecting lateral movement paths, weak protocols, and unpatched services.

Secure Code Review

White-box analysis of your source code (Python, Go, JS) to catch logic bombs and insecurity before deployment.

Our Engagement Methodology

1

Strategic Reconnaissance

Defining rules of engagement, threat modeling, and passive asset enumeration to map the attack surface.

2

Adversarial Simulation

Executing controlled, multi-vector attacks (Manual + Automated) to validate vulnerabilities and eliminate false positives.

3

Impact Reporting

Delivering CVSS-scored technical reports and executive summaries with prioritized remediation paths.

4

Verification & Retest

Rigorous regression testing to validate patches and ensure the complete closure of identified security gaps.

Casework

Sanitized Field Reports

We don’t just find bugs — we find the pattern behind them. We read how each system was built, question every assumption, and treat nothing as safe until it has been proven under pressure.

Real engagements, fully anonymized — client names, hosts and identifying detail removed. The findings, evidence and outcomes are intact.

API security assessment of a connected-device platform

2
criticals

The Ask

Grey-box assessment of the platform API surface against the OWASP API Security Top 10, ahead of a wider rollout.

Scope & Duration

Full API estate — Swagger + Postman collection, grey-box · ~4 weeks.

2 Critical 1 High 3 Medium 3 Low

Top Findings (sanitized)

  • Critical An unauthenticated endpoint returned full user records, including an admin password field.
  • Critical Application responses exposed internal infrastructure detail — internal IP addresses, environment variables and stack traces.
  • High Broken object-level authorization let a low-privilege account perform admin-only actions — full privilege escalation.

Evidence

VANShield.io· Engagement Evidence Sanitized
Sanitized API response: an unauthenticated endpoint returns user records containing an admin password field
Critical Credential exposure. An unauthenticated endpoint returned user records carrying an admin password_for_admin field — surfaced by our exhaustive, OWASP-aligned test coverage. Live credentials, hosts and identifiers permanently redacted.
VANShield.io· Engagement Evidence Sanitized
Sanitized HTTP 500 debug response exposing the framework version, server paths and configuration
Critical Verbose error / information disclosure. An unhandled error returned a full debug response exposing the framework stack, internal paths and configuration — the reconnaissance an attacker builds on. Host, tokens and product identifiers redacted.
VANShield.io· Engagement Evidence Sanitized
Sanitized request and response showing a low-privilege account performing an admin-only action
High Broken object-level authorization. A low-privilege account performed an admin-only action it should never have been allowed — a full privilege-escalation path our per-role access-control testing flagged. Host, tokens and identifiers redacted.

Outcome

VANShield didn’t stop at the report. Each issue was triaged by real-world criticality, and we worked directly with the client’s engineers — the two criticals were closed on the fly during the assessment and the high was re-tested and confirmed closed afterwards — so the team came away able to spot the same patterns themselves.

Web-application VAPT with passive recon & re-test

1
critical

The Ask

Black-box assessment of the public web application against the OWASP Top 10 (2021), including external attack-surface discovery.

Scope & Duration

Public web application, black-box · ~1 week + complimentary re-test.

1 Critical 2 Medium 1 Low

Top Findings (sanitized)

  • Critical A forgotten, internet-facing subdomain served a phpinfo() page on end-of-life PHP — disclosing OS, absolute file paths, modules and risky settings.
  • Medium WordPress REST API user enumeration exposed valid account names.
  • Medium Missing security headers on the HTTPS service.

Evidence

VANShield.io· Engagement Evidence Sanitized
Sanitized browser view of a publicly accessible phpinfo page disclosing end-of-life PHP 7.4.33 configuration
Critical phpinfo() exposure on end-of-life PHP. A forgotten internet-facing host leaked full server configuration — found through Certificate-Transparency-log review, not luck. Host and identifiers redacted.

Outcome

Triaged by criticality and handed over with hands-on remediation support. With our guidance the team retired the exposed host and the critical was re-tested and confirmed closed — root cause explained so it would not recur.

Web-application VAPT of a customer-facing storefront

1
high

The Ask

Black-box assessment of the customer-facing storefront against the OWASP Top 10 (2021).

Scope & Duration

Production + staging web application, black-box · ~1 week + complimentary re-test.

1 High 1 Medium 2 Low

Top Findings (sanitized)

  • High Unrestricted file upload via the support-chat feature — a known malware test file was accepted and stored with no antivirus or content scanning.
  • Medium Improper input validation accepted an unsanitized script payload in a user-facing field.
  • Low Server version disclosure and weak TLS cipher suites.

Evidence

VANShield.io· Engagement Evidence Sanitized
Sanitized request and response: an EICAR test-malware file accepted by the upload endpoint and stored, with the server returning 200 OK
High Unrestricted file upload. The industry-standard EICAR test file was accepted and stored with no malware or content scanning — the server returned 200 OK. Host, signed-URL parameters and identifiers redacted.

Outcome

We prioritised the upload flaw by business impact and coached the team through a defence-in-depth fix — content validation plus server-side malware scanning — rather than simply flagging it. The high was then re-tested and confirmed closed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from an automated scan?
Automated scanners only find surface-level vulnerabilities (about 20-30%). Our VAPT approach involves human-led business logic testing, manual chaining of exploits, and zero-false-positive validation. We think like a hacker, not a bot.
Will the testing slow down my application?
No. We strictly adhere to the agreed-upon Rules of Engagement (RoE). We perform rate-limited testing and avoid destructive payloads on production environments. For high-risk exploit simulation, we recommend a staging environment.
Do you provide a re-test after we fix the issues?
Yes. All our engagement packages include one complimentary re-test within 30 days of the initial report delivery to verify that patches have been applied correctly and no new issues were introduced.
What certifications do your testers hold?
Our team consists of full-time security researchers holding industry-recognized certifications including OSCP, CRTP, CEH, ISO 27001, and ISO 42001.
