Vulnerability Assessment

Overview

The objective of a vulnerability assessment is to validate host configurations and produce a list of known vulnerabilities existing on in-scope systems. The testing is limited to relatively safe checks designed to limit any negative impact in risk-averse environments.

Benefits

A technical network security assessment aims to identify critical vulnerabilities in your network that an attacker could exploit. Any networked device can be tested, including firewalls, routers or other network infrastructure devices, intrusion detection and prevention systems, web servers, email systems, virtual private networking (VPN) systems, etc. We will use a combination of automated and manual scans using commercial and publicly available tools as well as scripts and applications we have developed.
