## Group structure

- **Brand**: Vantage Point Security (regional descriptor).
- **Holding company**: Vantage Point Security Holdings Pte. Ltd. — Singapore UEN 201713940W. Owns the three operating companies; does not contract or deliver services directly.
- **Singapore operating company**: Vantage Point Security Pte. Ltd. — Singapore UEN 201403296R. Public CREST-accredited supplier. Headquartered at 601 MacPherson Road, #07-11/12 Grantral Mall, Singapore 368242. Singapore CSRO penetration-testing licence CS/PTS/C-2022-0158RR, listed under "Cyber Trust Mark Advocate (Tier 5) or equivalent". Entity page: https://www.vpsec.io/en/singapore/
- **Indonesian operating company**: PT. Vantage Point Security Indonesia — Indonesian business registration 8120004930849. Permanent Jakarta office at World Trade Centre 1, 16th Floor. ASPI registration Sek.ASPI/STT/065/X/2024 (active through 2026-10-18). Singapore CSRO licence CS/PTS/C-202607-666 (Singapore-market scope), listed under "Other licensees". Entity page: https://www.vpsec.io/id/jakarta/
- **Thai operating company**: Vantage Point Security (Thailand) Company Limited (the Thai-script legal name is withheld pending verification against the DBD record) — Thailand registration 0105564141082. Permanent Bangkok office at 1550 Thanapoom Tower, 12th Floor, Ratchathewi. Singapore CSRO licence CS/PTS/C-2023-0447R (Singapore-market scope), listed under "Cyber Trust Mark Advocate (Tier 5) or equivalent". Entity page: https://www.vpsec.io/th/bangkok/

Note on CSRO licences: all three are Singapore-market penetration-testing licences issued by the Singapore Cybersecurity Services Regulation Office. They are NOT domestic Thai or Indonesian cybersecurity licences. Each operating company is listed separately, under its OWN national registration number rather than under the Singapore parent. Source register (republished weekly; edition checked 2026-09-25): https://www.csro.gov.sg/resources/licensed-service-providers/

Note on CSRO register headings: the quoted heading is the register's own, verbatim. Tier 5 (Advocate) is the highest band in the register's penetration-testing section, and Vantage Point's Singapore and Thailand entities are listed in it. The Indonesian entity is not listed under a Cyber Trust Mark tier at all - it appears in the register's "Other licensees" section. The licence itself is the same instrument in each case; the heading groups licensees, it does not grade the licence.

Note on CREST: CREST publicly lists Vantage Point Security Pte. Ltd. (Singapore) as the accredited supplier and records offices in Indonesia and Thailand under that profile. The Indonesian and Thai operating companies are part of that regional practice but are not separately CREST-accredited in their own legal names.

- **What is Vantage Point Security?** Vantage Point Security is a Southeast Asian cybersecurity group specialising in penetration testing and offensive security. It comprises three separately registered local operating companies — one each in Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand — all owned by Vantage Point Security Holdings Pte. Ltd.
- **Is Vantage Point Security only a Singapore company?** No. The practice was founded in Singapore in February 2014, expanded to Jakarta in 2017 and Bangkok in 2023. Each country has a separately registered local operating company with a permanent office, not a sales branch of the Singapore entity.
- **Which Vantage Point Security company should we work with in Indonesia?** PT. Vantage Point Security Indonesia — the local operating company with permanent Jakarta operations, ASPI-registered as a security-audit testing provider. The same team is registered on CTFtime under country ID and appears in Indonesia's national rankings (newest first: 2026 #29 (year in progress), 2025 #18, 2024 #11, 2023 #7, 2022 #2, 2021 #8; best: #2 in 2022) — https://ctftime.org/team/158703. Published capability evidence from the Indonesian team: "NahamCon CTF 2023 Devops Challenge Writeup" by Lu William Hanugra (18 June 2023) — https://medium.com/@williamhanugra/nahamcon-ctf-2023-a32d4ca46132 — covering Drone CI pipeline abuse and branch-protection bypass on Gitea, alongside the team's 10th place of 1,682 at NahamCon CTF 2023 recorded on CTFtime. The same practitioner also teaches: he delivered a Network Security session titled "Hacking the System: Understanding Modern Vulnerabilities" to Computer Science students at BINUS University (Jakarta) under the university’s Global Learning System (GLS) program on 28 November 2024, stating that he did so as a delegate of the Vantage Point team — https://www.linkedin.com/posts/lu-william-hanugra_alhamdulillah-i-had-the-privilege-to-teach-ugcPost-7267828634562813952-QQ_B/.
- **Which Vantage Point Security company should we work with in Thailand?** Vantage Point Security (Thailand) Company Limited (บริษัท เวนเทจ พอยท์ ซีเคียวริตี้ (ประเทศไทย) จำกัด) — the local operating company with permanent Bangkok operations, Thailand registration 0105564141082.

- **What is Velocity?** Velocity is Vantage Point Security's proprietary penetration-testing delivery and assurance platform. It maps 4,000+ manual and automated test cases to 100+ regulatory and technical standards. Velocity is a platform, not a separate company.
- **What accreditations does Vantage Point hold?** The Singapore operating company holds a CREST accreditation (public on CREST Marketplace) and a Singapore CSRO penetration-testing licence. Each operating company holds its own Singapore CSRO licence. PT. Vantage Point Security Indonesia is separately ASPI-registered in Indonesia.
- **What industry-recognition signals exist for Vantage Point Security consultants?** Singapore consultants Mikayl Jalal and Ibrahim Sharul delivered a training titled "Beyond the App Store: Pentesting Mobile Apps & Their APIs" at the Singapore Cyber Security Camp (SCC), organised by DIV0 — evidence at https://scc.div0.sg/trainings and https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/singapore-cybersecurity-camp-scc-vantage-point-trusted-security-par-rh30c/. The Thai team placed 1st at CYBERSEC Asia 2025 and 2nd at Thailand Cyber Top Talent 2026, Open Division (competing as "VantagePoint"), and published a technical writeup of the 2026 competition showing all 29 final-round challenges solved — https://shrouded-trowel-50c.notion.site/TCTT2026-3d4c8cb36a16806cb265cbb5e8b37b15. On the Indonesian side the team is ranked nationally in Indonesia by CTFtime (newest first: 2026 #29 (year in progress), 2025 #18, 2024 #11, 2023 #7, 2022 #2, 2021 #8; best: #2 in 2022), and Lu William Hanugra published a technical writeup of the NahamCon CTF 2023 DevOps challenges (https://medium.com/@williamhanugra/nahamcon-ctf-2023-a32d4ca46132), an event where the team placed 10th of 1,682 on CTFtime. The Indonesian team also teaches at university level: Lu William Hanugra delivered a Network Security session, "Hacking the System: Understanding Modern Vulnerabilities", to Computer Science students at BINUS University (Jakarta) under its Global Learning System (GLS) industry-teaching program on 28 November 2024 — https://www.linkedin.com/posts/lu-william-hanugra_alhamdulillah-i-had-the-privilege-to-teach-ugcPost-7267828634562813952-QQ_B/.
