How VEXA certifications work

A practical evaluation designed for real security work — not rote memorization.

01

Guided labs → capability

Learn the method with hands-on exercises: scope, validate, document, and communicate impact.

02

Scenario-based assessment

Apply the workflow end-to-end on realistic targets (safe environment). Focus on evidence, clarity, and decision-making.

03

Report + review

Submit a professional-style report. We review reproduction quality, impact reasoning, and remediation guidance.

What gets evaluated

  • Method (what to test first, how to avoid noise)
  • Proof (repro steps, screenshots/log evidence)
  • Communication (clear findings + fixes engineers accept)

What it’s not

  • No MCQ-only “theory exam”
  • No unsafe/off-limits real-world targets
  • No inflated promises — just measurable skills
