Practical guides, research, and field notes from the Arxiis red team — written for security leaders, not just engineers.
You test once a year and call it covered. The attacker doesn't work to your audit calendar. Most regulated enterprises run an annual VAPT — and either way, the calendar creates a known, predictable gap that attackers are trained to exploit.
That 194-day figure is dwell time: the interval between an attacker first getting in and anyone noticing. It is not passive waiting — it's a methodical kill chain, and every step is designed to stay quiet.
If more than half of intrusions begin with a legitimate login, a hardened perimeter is solving for the wrong threat. The credential is the new exploit — and most defences aren't built for it.
Breach detection time is the quiet number that decides how much a breach costs you. Attackers move fast. Most teams see them slowly. Your last pentest does not close that gap.
The 2026 shift from scripts you babysit to AI that reasons, chains steps, and finishes the attack on its own. What agentic red teaming means in practice.
Penetration test, red team, or continuous security validation? A plain guide to the three testing types and when each one is worth the money.
Regulators want proof you fixed and re-tested, not a single dated report. What banks and NBFCs must show under the updated RBI framework now.
The 6-hour rule, 180-day logs, empanelled auditors, and how to stay audit-ready every day of the year. A plain CERT-In VAPT checklist for 2026.
Most footer badges are static images that prove nothing. A verifiable security badge is live, clickable, and re-earned continuously. What a real trust mark looks like.
Forgotten subdomains, shadow APIs, cloud configs, and third-party integrations rarely get tested. That is exactly where attackers look first.
The cybersecurity skills gap sits at 4.8 million open roles and is not closing. Why leverage, not headcount, is the only sustainable fix.
92% of security professionals are worried about AI agents, but only 37% have a policy. The real risk — and how to test agents the way attackers will.
In most security testing, your sensitive data leaves the building. Data sovereignty testing keeps everything on-premise, so your data never leaves your environment.
