A vulnerability assessment identifies system weaknesses, while penetration testing actively exploits them to measure real risk. Both are essential for strengthening security. Beginners often learn these skills in a Cyber security course with placement, which provides practical tools, real scenarios, and guided training to enter security roles confidently.
