Technical Vulnerability Management
Technical Vulnerability Management is the ongoing, risk-informed process of addressing weaknesses in Information Technology (IT) infrastructure, software, applications, operating systems and networks.
Vulnerability management is a continuous process to identify, evaluate, treat, and report on security vulnerabilities in systems and software. Properly monitoring and responding to complex issues are essential components of vulnerability management and information security as a whole. So, it is vital for organizations to implement it alongside other security tactics, prioritize possible threats and minimize attack risks.
Thus, we help organizations in this process of identifying, classifying, remediating and mitigating vulnerabilities in the system and aim to prevent exploiting technological vulnerabilities.
Why do organizations need Vulnerability Management?
Software and network vulnerabilities are constantly at risk of being exploited by attackers with the intention to insert destructive malware and steal sensitive user data. So, our vulnerability management is designed to help companies proactively defend against vulnerabilities in their software, applications, operating systems and network. The scope of Vulnerability Management is to:
- Find existing and discover new technical vulnerabilities across all environments
- Scan for known and new technical vulnerabilities to discover new weaknesses and to confirm that configuration changes have been applied correctly
- Sanage technical vulnerabilities
It is critical that organizations define technical vulnerability management functions and take appropriate measures. Some potential benefits that an organization can gain by successfully implementing vulnerability management include, but are not limited to:
- Improved security and control
- Visibility and reporting
- Operational efficiency
- Repeatable results with a long-term solution
- Return on security investment
- Detection of security weaknesses
- Established security records for later assessments
The process of Vulnerability Management involves:
- Scanning for vulnerabilities
- Advising for management of vulnerabilities
Vulnerability scanning
Vulnerability scanning is the process of identifying security weaknesses, flaws in systems and software running on them. This is an integral part of a vulnerability management program, aiming to protect the organization from breaches and to discover sensitive data.
Vulnerability scanning steps include:
- Scan all assets within the ecosystem
- Prioritize the patching process
- Document all scans and their results
- Establish a remediation process
