Elite Assessments › Threat & Vulnerability Management
Threat & Vulnerability Management — Vulnerability management as an ongoing program, not a periodic scan
SIRI Security designs and runs Threat & Vulnerability Management as a structured, ongoing program — closing the gap between 'we scan sometimes' and genuinely managing vulnerability risk over time.

Growing gap
62% CLOUD
Cloud misconfiguration and IAM exploitation account for 62% of detections in cloud environments (DSCI) — exactly what an attacker's-POV assessment is designed to find first.
Baseline
70% MALWARE
Trojans and file infectors make up 70% of malware detections (Seqrite 2026) — a common finding once ransomware readiness is actually tested.
Effective
31 JUL 2026
RBI's 2026 Framework raises the bar on demonstrable resilience — elite-tier assessment is increasingly how regulated entities evidence it.
Baseline
6 HR WINDOW
CERT-In's notification window makes threat modelling and readiness testing a precondition for meeting the deadline once, not after, an incident starts.
Evidentiary standard
BSA 2023
Where an elite assessment surfaces material later relevant to a dispute, the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam 2023 governs how that evidence is treated.
Tested at the standard a real adversary would use
What does Threat & Vulnerability Management involve?
Running periodic vulnerability scans isn't the same as managing vulnerability risk. A proper Threat & Vulnerability Management program defines how vulnerabilities are discovered, prioritised by actual exploitability and business impact, tracked to remediation, and reported on over time.
We help design or operate this program end to end: discovery cadence, risk-based prioritisation (not just CVSS score), remediation SLAs matched to severity, and the reporting that keeps leadership genuinely informed of vulnerability risk trends.
Assume breach, then test the assumption
62% of cloud detections trace to misconfiguration and IAM exploitation (DSCI) — the exact blind spot an attacker's-POV, military-grade assessment is built to surface before a real adversary does.
SIRI Security delivers Threat & Vulnerability Management to this standard directly — practitioner-led, documented, and connected to SIRI Law LLP's legal and regulatory response if a finding ever needs to go further.
What organisations get wrong
Four assumptions elite-tier assessment exists to correct
Routine testing answers 'did we pass'; elite assessment answers 'could we actually survive this.'
01 — CONFIDENCE
“Our standard testing programme already covers this”
Elite-tier assessment goes further than routine testing by design — chaining findings the way a real, motivated adversary would, not stopping at the first clean scope boundary.
02 — READINESS
“We'd cope fine if ransomware hit us”
Ransomware readiness untested is ransomware readiness assumed — and 70% of malware detections are trojans and file infectors (Seqrite 2026), the common precursor.
03 — THREAT MODEL
“Generic threat intelligence is specific enough”
A threat model built around your actual environment, assets, and adversary incentives finds what generic industry threat feeds miss.
04 — EVIDENCE
“The findings are just for our internal team”
Where an elite assessment surfaces something serious, the way it was documented matters if it ever needs to support a legal or insurance position.
What Threat & Vulnerability Management covers
What's included, start to finish
Assessed the way a real, motivated adversary would approach it — not a generic checklist.
01
Program design & governance
A defined process for discovery, prioritisation, remediation, and reporting.
02
Risk-based prioritisation
Vulnerabilities ranked by real exploitability and business context, not raw CVSS score alone.
03
Remediation SLA tracking
Findings tracked to closure against severity-based timelines.
04
Threat intelligence integration
Active-exploitation intelligence factored into prioritisation.
05
Executive & technical reporting
Reporting suited to both leadership oversight and technical remediation teams.
Evidence, not guesswork
Routine testing vs. self-assessed confidence vs. a SIRI elite assessment
The difference shows up exactly when a real, sophisticated threat actually arrives.

Why SIRI for Threat & Vulnerability Management specifically
Assessed by the same team that runs real incident response
The practitioners who run elite assessments are the same ones who contain real breaches — not a separate red-team vendor with no downstream accountability.
01
Led directly by SIRI's Head of Cybersecurity
Vikram Rao, SIRI's Head of Cybersecurity, directs offensive security and incident response and leads CERT-In breach containment for enterprise clients.
02
Court-admissible findings when it matters
Ananya Krishnan, SIRI's Digital Forensics Lead, prepares court-admissible forensic reports and testifies as an expert witness when findings end up in front of a judge.
03
Findings connected directly to legal exposure
SIRI Security runs under the same roof as SIRI Law LLP — when a finding carries real legal exposure, the engagement can be brought under attorney-client privilege from day one, not bolted on after the fact.
04
Built for RBI's specific resilience bar
Assessment scope and reporting are built to the standard RBI's 2026 Framework expects from regulated entities, not a generic red-team template.
Who this is built for
Organisations this elite assessment service is built for
Banks & NBFCs
High-profile or high-value targets
Boards demanding an honest resilience view
Organisations that have never tested ransomware readiness
Enterprises facing a sophisticated or persistent threat
How we work
From scoping to ongoing delivery
01
Scoping & Rules of Engagement
We define scope, objectives, and rules of engagement together, so the exercise targets what actually matters to your business.
Week 102
Assessment Execution
Our senior team executes the assessment, simulating realistic adversary behaviour rather than a generic scanner run.
Weeks 2–303
Findings & Debrief
We walk your team through findings in a live debrief, not just a written report dropped in an inbox.
Week 4+04
Remediation Roadmap
A prioritised roadmap ties every finding to a concrete next step, ranked by actual risk.
OngoingFrequently asked
Threat & Vulnerability Management, answered directly
Do you run the scanning tools, or just design the program?
Both models are available — we can design the program for your team to run, or operate it for you as an ongoing managed service.
How is this different from a one-time VAPT engagement?
VAPT is point-in-time testing; this is the ongoing program that manages vulnerability risk continuously between and beyond individual tests.
How long does this take?
Most engagements in this category run 3 to 6 weeks depending on scope, with senior specialists involved throughout.
Who on our side needs to be involved?
We typically work with your security lead and relevant technical owners; for tabletop-style exercises, leadership involvement is part of the value.
Test the assumption, not just the perimeter
Scope Threat & Vulnerability Management.
Most engagements start with a short scoping call to agree objectives and rules of engagement.
