Adequate security starts with a clear understanding of your vul-nerabilities. In a world that is rapidly digitizing, cybersecurity is now a major focus for Chief Experience Officers. Cybercriminals are con-tinually targeting financial services and insurance (BFSI) companies that handle sensitive financial information and the personal data of employees and customers. Forbes reported that cybercriminals target financial institu-tions four times more often than other industries in 2015. The same survey revealed that financial institutions were subject to 300 times more cyberat-tacks than other industries in 2019.The evolving tools, tactics and procedures used by cybercriminals to breach networks means that it's important to regularly test your organisa-tion's cyber security.VAPT helps to protect your organisation by providing visibility of se-curity weaknesses and guidance to address them. VAPT is increasingly important for organisations wanting to achieve compliance with standards including the GDPR, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS.Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) describes a broad range of security assessment services designed to identify and help address cyber security exposures across an organization's IT estate. To en-sure that you choose the right type of assessment for your company's needs, it's important to understand the various types of VAPT services and the differences between them. The diverse nature of VAPT assessments means that they can vary significantly in depth, breadth, scope and price, so this understanding is critical to ensure tests deliver the best value for money.This calls for the immediate attention of Experience Officers. This breed of CEOs can make a significant difference in how the business copes with and stay resilient to cyber attacks and network breach. Most important, this role becomes all the more crucial to ensure the workforce within have a safe environment to work in. Emmanuel Christi DasEditoreditor@siliconindia.com
