Hands-On VAPT Labs

136 Pages of Hands-On VAPT Labs

Amisha Tehra has put together a solid, practical VAPT lab report that focuses on learning through real environments, not just theory.

This isn’t another concept-only PDF. It’s a Red Team–style lab report based on controlled, intentionally vulnerable environments such as Metasploitable2 and test web applications.

What the report covers:

Common web vulnerabilities: SQL Injection, XSS, CSRF, IDOR, OTP logic issues

Tool usage walkthroughs: Nmap, Metasploit, Burp Suite, SQLmap

MITRE ATT&CK & Cyber Kill Chain mapping for attack understanding

OWASP Top 10 explained with real lab context

Most people start pentesting by reading about vulnerabilities.

Real understanding comes when you interact with a vulnerable system, observe behavior, and connect tools with concepts.

This report helps bridge that gap and is especially useful for:

Beginners starting VAPT

Students building a home lab

Anyone transitioning from theory to practice
