Victoria, home to Melbourne and regional hubs like Geelong and Ballarat, is one of Australia’s most digitally advanced states. With strong industries in finance, healthcare, education, manufacturing, retail, and government, Victoria is a prime target for cyberattacks.
From ransomware campaigns to phishing, insider threats, and industrial espionage, organizations across the state face growing risks.
Cyberintelsys provides Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) services in Victoria (VIC) to help businesses detect vulnerabilities, strengthen defenses, and comply with national and international security regulations.
What is VAPT?
Vulnerability Assessment (VA):
Scans systems, networks, and applications to detect security gaps before attackers can exploit them.
Penetration Testing (PT):
Ethical hackers simulate real-world cyberattacks to evaluate the exploitability of vulnerabilities and the potential business impact.
Combined, VAPT ensures a complete security posture assessment, enabling businesses to act proactively rather than reactively.
