Vulnerability Assessment
Secure Thinking can provide a fully automated vulnerability detection service which monitors your infrastructure, systems and applications for security vulnerabilities.
The solution can be configured to perform network infrastructure scans, as well as test the security of web pplications for common security flaws on a daily basis – ensuring you know of security issues before a potential attacker.
Our service can be operated as a cloud based solution to monitor external facing systems, or it can be installed and configured on internal networks to monitor for and manage vulnerabilities across the entire estate.
Automated Vulnerability Detection Process
- Scoping – agree the target and scope of the vulnerability detection service
- Approval – obtain approval for the on-going assessments (may involve 3rd party organisations)
- Scheduling – agree the start date and duration of the testing
- Set-Up – configure the vulnerability assessment solution
- Vulnerability Scanning – assess target systems and services for known vulnerabilities
- Analysis – investigate results of the testing and the likely impact
- Reporting – report findings of the testing – executive summary, vulnerabilities discovered and remediation advice
