Cybersecurity services for Indian startups and businesses — VAPT, security audits, vulnerability assessment, DPDP Act–ready. Transparent INR pricing, no jargon.
A cyberattack doesn't wait for you to be "ready." Markifid's cybersecurity services help Indian startups and growing businesses find and fix security gaps before attackers do — through penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, and security audits built around your actual infrastructure, not a generic checklist. As a full-service digital growth agency, we treat security as part of how we build and market your business, not a bolt-on afterthought.
The term gets used loosely. Here's what we mean by it, and what each piece does for you:
A scan-based review that identifies known weaknesses across your web apps, APIs, servers, and cloud infrastructure. Fast, broad, and the right starting point if you've never had one done.
A manual, attacker-style simulation where we actively try to exploit what the vulnerability scan flagged. This tells you what's actually exploitable versus theoretical.
A systematic analysis of your overall security posture, including configurations, access control, practices for handling data and policy gaps measured with OWASP and NIST security frameworks.
Ongoing support to teams who require a second opinion regarding architecture decisions as well as vendor selections or plan for response to incidents without the need to hire a CISO full-time.
The majority of buyers employ these terms in a similar way. They're not exactly the same thing. Knowing which is needed can save you money.
| Vulnerability Assessment | Penetration Testing | Security Audit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it does | Scans for known weaknesses | Actively exposes weaknesses to show risk | Reviews overall posture, policy, and controls |
| Best for | Regular hygiene checks Automated, broad | Pre-launch, pre-funding, or post-incident validation ready Manual, targeted | Due diligence for investors Process + technical, holistic |
| Typical turnaround | 2–4 working days | 5–10 working days | 1–3 weeks depending on scope |
We map your assets: web apps, mobile apps, APIs, cloud environment, and internal network.
Automated scanning plus manual testing against OWASP Top 10 and NIST-aligned methodology.
A plain-language report ranking findings by real-world exploitability and business impact, not just CVSS scores.
Our team helps your developers fix what's flagged, not just hand over a PDF and disappear.
A follow-up round confirms fixes actually closed the gap before we sign off.

Every engagement is scoped to what you actually have — a five-page marketing site and a fintech API don't need the same treatment. As a general starting reference for Indian startups and SMEs:
Starts in the low five-figure range.
Mid five-figure to low six-figure range depending on scope.
Scoped individually based on infrastructure size and compliance requirements.
We'll give you an exact number after the scoping call — no vague "contact us for pricing" runaround.
Investors increasingly ask for a VAPT report during due diligence. Sorting this out ahead of time avoids delays in your raise. (See how this connects to our Startup Funding Advisory and Project Launchpad work.)
Where DPDP Act compliance and data-handling audits become non-negotiable as part of business expansion planning.
Handling user data at scale, where a breach isn't just a technical problem but a trust and revenue problem.
The most common starting point we see.
