Security Testing Services Nepal — VAPT & Penetration Testing
NepTechPal provides professional security testing and ethical hacking services for businesses in Nepal — including web application VAPT, API security testing, payment gateway security, and source code review. Find your vulnerabilities before attackers do.
Security Testing Services for Nepal
From web application penetration testing to API and infrastructure security, we cover the full attack surface of your Nepal digital products. Combine with our functional testing services for comprehensive quality assurance.
Web Application Penetration Testing
Our security engineers conduct authorised, simulated attacks on your web application to identify exploitable vulnerabilities before malicious actors do. We test for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities — SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, broken authentication, insecure direct object references, and more — providing a detailed report with risk ratings and remediation guidance for your Nepal development team.
Vulnerability Assessment
A systematic scan and manual review of your web application, APIs, server infrastructure, and network components to identify known vulnerabilities and security misconfigurations. We use industry-leading tools combined with manual expert analysis to find weaknesses that automated scanners alone miss — giving your Nepal business a comprehensive picture of its security posture.
API Security Testing
Modern applications rely heavily on APIs — and so do attackers. We test your REST and GraphQL APIs for authentication weaknesses, authorisation bypass, data exposure, rate limiting failures, and injection vulnerabilities. This is especially critical for Nepal fintech applications and e-commerce platforms with eSewa, Khalti, or banking API integrations.
Source Code Security Review
Our security engineers manually review your application's source code for security anti-patterns, hardcoded credentials, insecure cryptography, SQL injection risks, and sensitive data handling issues. Code review catches security flaws before they reach production — reducing the cost and risk of post-launch security incidents for Nepal software companies.
Infrastructure & Cloud Security Assessment
We assess the security of your server configuration, database settings, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure), SSL/TLS configuration, and firewall rules. Misconfigured servers and databases are a leading cause of data breaches in Nepal businesses — our assessment identifies and prioritises these misconfigurations for immediate remediation.
Security Audit & Compliance Report
We produce comprehensive security audit reports that document all findings, assign CVSS risk scores, explain the business impact of each vulnerability, and provide step-by-step remediation recommendations. Reports are written clearly for both technical teams and non-technical management — helping Nepal business leaders make informed security investment decisions.

Why Nepal Businesses Choose NepTechPal for Security Testing
We combine technical security expertise with deep knowledge of Nepal's digital ecosystem — including payment gateways, local hosting environments, and the specific threats targeting Nepal businesses.
Understanding of Nepal's Cyber Threat Landscape
We stay current with the cybersecurity threats most relevant to Nepal's digital environment — including attacks targeting Nepal payment gateways, government portals, and financial institutions — giving us contextual insight that generic security firms lack.
Ethical, Authorised Testing Only
All security testing is conducted with explicit written authorisation from system owners. We follow strict rules of engagement to ensure testing is safe, non-destructive, and legally compliant — protecting both your organisation and our team.
Actionable, Developer-Friendly Reports
Our reports do not just list vulnerabilities — they explain exactly how to fix each one with code examples and configuration guidance. Nepal development teams can act immediately on our findings without additional research.
Fast Turnaround
We understand that security testing is often time-sensitive before a product launch. Our team can mobilise quickly and deliver initial findings within days, giving your Nepal team time to remediate before go-live deadlines.
Remediation Verification
After your team fixes the vulnerabilities we found, we retest to verify the fixes are effective and do not introduce new issues — a critical step that many one-time security assessments in Nepal skip.
Our Security Testing Process
Our structured 6-step process ensures thorough coverage, responsible disclosure, and actionable remediation guidance for every Nepal security engagement.
Scoping & Authorisation
We define the exact scope of testing — which systems, URLs, APIs, and IP ranges are in scope — and obtain written authorisation from the system owner before any testing begins.
Reconnaissance & Information Gathering
We map your application's attack surface — identifying all entry points, user roles, data flows, and technologies — to plan the most thorough and efficient penetration test.
Vulnerability Identification
Using a combination of automated scanning tools and deep manual testing techniques, we systematically probe your application for all known vulnerability classes and novel attack vectors.
Exploitation & Impact Assessment
We attempt to exploit discovered vulnerabilities in a controlled way to demonstrate real-world impact — for example, extracting a sample of data to prove SQL injection is exploitable — giving stakeholders clear evidence of business risk.
Reporting
We compile a detailed report covering all findings with CVSS scores, business impact descriptions, proof-of-concept screenshots, and step-by-step remediation recommendations for your Nepal team.
Debrief & Remediation Support
We present findings to your technical team and management, answer questions, and provide ongoing support during the remediation phase — followed by a retest to verify all fixes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about security testing and penetration testing for Nepal businesses.
What is the difference between penetration testing and vulnerability assessment?
A vulnerability assessment identifies and catalogues security weaknesses in your system — it is a comprehensive inventory of known vulnerabilities. Penetration testing goes further: our security engineers actively attempt to exploit those vulnerabilities to demonstrate real-world impact and determine which weaknesses pose the most critical business risk. For most Nepal businesses, we recommend starting with a combined VA/PT approach that covers both identification and exploitation.
Is security testing safe for my live Nepal website or application?
Yes, when conducted by professional security engineers with proper scoping. We perform non-destructive testing that identifies vulnerabilities without causing data loss, service disruption, or data modification. For sensitive production systems, we can conduct testing during off-peak hours or against a staging environment that mirrors your production setup. All testing is done with explicit written authorisation and strict rules of engagement.
Do you test the security of eSewa and Khalti payment integrations?
Yes. Payment gateway security is a critical area for any Nepal e-commerce or fintech application. We test for vulnerabilities in your payment integration code — including parameter tampering (manipulating payment amounts), replay attacks, insecure direct object references to payment records, and insufficient validation of payment gateway callbacks. We use sandbox environments for all payment integration security tests.
What is an OWASP Top 10 test and does my Nepal website need it?
The OWASP Top 10 is a widely recognised list of the most critical web application security risks, maintained by the Open Web Application Security Project. It includes injection attacks (SQL, command), broken authentication, sensitive data exposure, cross-site scripting (XSS), and security misconfigurations. If your Nepal website handles user data, processes payments, or provides access to sensitive business information, an OWASP Top 10 assessment is essential and should be done at least annually.
How long does a security test take for a typical Nepal web application?
A basic vulnerability assessment for a small web application typically takes 3–5 days of testing and reporting. A comprehensive penetration test for a larger application with multiple user roles, APIs, and payment integrations typically takes 1–2 weeks. Source code security reviews add additional time depending on codebase size. We provide a precise timeline after an initial scoping call.
Do you provide a certificate after security testing?
We provide a formal security assessment report that documents the testing scope, methodology, findings, and their remediation status. After successful remediation and retest, we issue a remediation confirmation letter. Some Nepal businesses use these documents to demonstrate due diligence to clients, partners, or regulators. For formal compliance certifications (ISO 27001, PCI-DSS), we can assess your current posture and help you identify the gaps to achieve certification.
What Our Nepal Security Clients Say
NepTechPal found a critical SQL injection vulnerability in our eSewa payment flow that could have allowed attackers to manipulate transaction amounts. Their detailed report made remediation straightforward.
Anil Maharjan
CTO — Nepal Fintech Company, Kathmandu
Their VAPT report was exceptionally thorough — 23 vulnerabilities identified with clear risk ratings and remediation steps. The remediation support after the pentest was particularly valuable.
