What is a Vulnerability Scan?
Vulnerability scans are assessment tools that help to identify known network, operating system, web application and web server vulnerabilities or threats with the use of automated tools. External scans can give you an overall picture of the threats to which your external presence is exposed.
Why do these Threat Vulnerability Assessments?
Many organizations’ external presence is threatened by constant attack. To prevent an information security breach, the organization must verify they are not exposed to a vulnerability which may aid an attacker in compromising the organization’s information security.
Before a vulnerability can be remediated, the vulnerability’s existence must be known. External threat vulnerability assessments are used to find an organization’s vulnerabilities. Additionally the type and severity of the vulnerabilities are identified to help prioritize remediation efforts.
