Private Beta · 2026 · Pre‑VAPT Intelligence

Know your
attack surface
before VAPT begins

xhield.tech automates pre‑VAPT reconnaissance — discovering every API endpoint, exposed cloud resource, and risky dependency. Correlated into one risk‑prioritized view, before your pentest starts.

8–16h saved per engagement
40–60% fewer VAPT findings

From repo & cloud account
to attack surface in minutes

A four-step pipeline that gives your VAPT team the context they need before a single test is run.

01

Code & Cloud Ingestion

Connect your Git repositories and AWS account. xhield parses Java/Spring and Python apps, scans EC2, RDS, S3, API Gateway, and Security Groups.

02

Correlation & Scoring

Endpoints are correlated to infrastructure. Vulnerabilities and misconfigurations are scored by exposure, criticality, and exploitability.

03

Pre‑VAPT Intelligence

Risk-prioritized reports for VAPT teams — including a fix-before-VAPT checklist and export options for standard pentest tooling.

04

Shared Remediation View

Dev and security teams get a unified view of the attack surface. Remediate before formal VAPT begins — reducing findings and costs.

Three capabilities,
one unified view

Built for code‑to‑cloud correlation with VAPT‑specific context — not generic dependency scanning, SAST, or SBOM reports.

Capability 01

Complete Attack Surface Discovery

Automatically map every entry point across your codebase and cloud environment — before any tester touches your system.

  • REST, GraphQL, gRPC endpoint discovery
  • File upload surfaces & auth boundaries
  • Public EC2, RDS, S3, load balancers
  • API-to-cloud resource correlation
01
Capability 02

Vulnerability Pre‑Screening

Surface known misconfigurations and high-risk patterns before VAPT begins, so remediations happen on your schedule, not the tester's.

  • Auth bypass & injection patterns
  • Cloud misconfiguration detection
  • Exposure + criticality scoring
  • Fix-before-VAPT prioritized checklist
02
Capability 03

Dependency & Infra Risk Analysis

Go beyond CVE lists. Understand which vulnerable dependencies are actually reachable from an internet-facing endpoint.

  • Reachability-aware dependency analysis
  • Infrastructure exposure mapping
  • VAPT tooling export support
  • Shared dev + security risk view
03
Why xhield is different

Code‑to‑Cloud Correlation

Generic SAST sees code. Generic CSPM sees cloud. xhield sees both — and connects them into end-to-end risk paths your VAPT team can act on immediately.

  • AST-based code analysis engine
  • Cloud configuration scanning
  • Single unified workflow
  • Built with VAPT partners like Cyraacs

From isolated issues
to end‑to‑end risk paths

xhield turns raw findings into attack-ready stories your VAPT team can act on before testing begins.

Critical Risk Path
FINDING-0041 · Detected via AST + AWS scan
POST /api/users
Public EC2 instance
Public RDS · No encryption
PII exposure
The POST /api/users endpoint is exposed on a public EC2 instance with no IP allowlist, backed by a publicly accessible RDS database with encryption disabled. The endpoint processes user registration without rate limiting and lacks consistent authentication checks across all HTTP verbs. xhield surfaces this as a single high-risk path with step-by-step remediation guidance — long before VAPT begins.
Auth: Missing Encryption: None Exposure: Public OWASP: A01 OWASP: A02 CWE-306 Fix available
8–16h saved per VAPT engagement
40–60% fewer findings after pre-remediation
Minutes from repo + cloud account to full report

Teams preparing
for VAPT

Designed in collaboration with VAPT practitioners — not adapted from generic security tooling.

Product Companies

Preparing for an upcoming VAPT? Understand your full attack surface first, remediate the obvious issues, and go into testing with confidence — not surprises.

Security Consulting Firms

Run better engagements. xhield gives your VAPT team a structured, pre-correlated attack surface so testers focus on exploiting — not mapping.

DevSecOps Teams

In regulated industries where VAPT is a recurring requirement, xhield turns a reactive process into a proactive, repeatable workflow.

Launching with select VAPT partners & early adopters

We're working closely with VAPT teams and security consulting partners — including Cyraacs — to validate the platform in real engagements before general availability.
