Vulnerability assessment is a process for finding target faults. In this case, the organization is aware that its systems or networks have defects or weaknesses, and they want to identify these flaws and prioritize them.
Meanwhile, penetration testing is a process for finding vulnerabilities. In this scenario, the firm would have installed all security precautions they could think of and would wish to investigate any more vulnerabilities in their network or system.
