Yes devloper are earn more than vapt also in overseas

Its depends on which company you are working for. It's lame comparison, it's actually penetration testing, VAPT is not the right term

Vapt is getting automated a lot. See if you can find a niche in a certain side of it or if you can combine it with other aspects of information security.

like

Are you talking about penetration testing or vulnerability assessment? Penetration testing is much effective it done manually, what you are talking about is Vulnerability scan

Hello, Partners. Can anyone recommend fantastic courses, videos or training for a new manager like myself? I’ve come from a tech background and looking to be C-Suite

I’m one of the top performers in the company and got invited to the company’s emerging leadership program. I always meet all my goals and deliverables on time but still feel like half of the time I’m not even doing anything (or performing my best). How do I leverage this ‘off-time’ into something productive in order to progress faster?
