Queensland (QLD), with key hubs in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Townsville, and Cairns, is one of Australia’s fastest-growing regions. The state’s diverse economy includes healthcare, mining, finance, tourism, retail, and education—all of which are increasingly reliant on digital systems and cloud environments.
With this reliance comes significant cybersecurity risks. Queensland businesses are frequent targets of ransomware attacks, phishing campaigns, data breaches, and insider threats.
Cyberintelsys provides Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) services in Queensland to help organizations proactively identify risks, safeguard critical systems, and ensure compliance with Australian cybersecurity standards.
What is VAPT?
Vulnerability Assessment (VA):
Systematically scans IT systems, networks, and applications to uncover weaknesses before attackers exploit them.
Penetration Testing (PT):
Ethical hackers simulate real-world attacks to test the exploitability of vulnerabilities and assess potential impact.
Together, VAPT provides Queensland organizations with a clear picture of their security posture, enabling effective risk mitigation.
