Category: Cyber Security Testing

As Oman advances its digital infrastructure across banking, oil & gas, logistics, and government sectors, the need for robust cybersecurity practices is greater than ever. Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) services are essential to identify and mitigate cyber risks proactively. Cyberintelsys, a leading cybersecurity company in the GCC region, delivers specialized VAPT services in Oman to help organizations safeguard their networks, applications, and cloud infrastructure.

What Is VAPT?

Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT)

VAPT is a two-pronged approach that enhances an organization’s security posture:

• Vulnerability Assessment (VA): Detects known security weaknesses through automated and manual scans.

• Penetration Testing (PT): Simulates cyberattacks to exploit identified vulnerabilities.

This approach helps Omani businesses detect risks before attackers exploit them.

Why VAPT Is Critical in Oman?

With Oman’s digital adoption growing, cyber threats are also increasing. VAPT helps:

• Identify hidden security flaws

• Prevent data breaches and ransomware attacks

• Comply with Oman’s national cybersecurity standards (Oman CERT, NESA, ISO 27001)

• Protect citizen and business data

• Safeguard critical sectors such as oil & gas, banking, telecom, and logistics
