Guide to Vulnerability Assessment and its Remediation<\/strong><\/p>\n

First and foremost, let\u2019s begin with what exactly is a vulnerability assessment? If you don\u2019t already know it, it is the process of analysing, classifying, and then, prioritizing the vulnerabilities in your network. Evidently, one needs to find out the vulnerabilities before they can be mitigated. The vulnerability assessment step is as important as your company running smoothly. Why so? let us try it<\/p>\n

A vulnerability in your network, according to NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology, USA), is “a weakness in a computer system, system security procedures, internal controls, or operations that could be exploited by the threat source.”<\/p>\n

Why is vulnerability assessment so important to your business?<\/strong>
\nNeglecting an organization’s cybersecurity can have immeasurable consequences, costing years of productivity and growth. Not only are they losing their annual sales, they are also losing their reputation in the industry and their loyal customer base. Regular use of vulnerability assessment tools can save organizations not only money, but also invaluable data and credibility. After analysing the vulnerability, changes can be made to mitigate the threat and ensure complete network security. These changes can include installing tools, opening new ports, and sometimes even moving your entire network to the cloud.<\/p>\n

How do cyber smart companies protect their systems?<\/strong>
\nLet’s get to the point and see how IT organizations proactively identify their vulnerabilities and make critical decisions to manage the risks.<\/p>\n

Selection of vulnerability assessment with penetration tests
\nThere is a significant difference between vulnerability assessment and penetration testing. We explain how the two processes differ and why both are equally important to keep hackers away.<\/p>\n

As the name suggests, Vulnerability Assessment is a test to assess network vulnerabilities. But what’s the catch? It is a fully automated test that generates a report at the end of its execution. Penetration testing, on the other hand, is a manual process that depends on the knowledge and experience of the penetration tester. An experienced penetration tester can identify vulnerabilities in an organization’s system that may go unnoticed during an automated vulnerability assessment.<\/p>\n

By combining the two processes, organizations can scan their network both automatically and manually, pushing their system security to the limit.<\/p>\n

Manage security threats based on the impact they can have on your business
\nYes, priority is key here.
\nWe all know that not all businesses have the resources to invest in cybersecurity and small businesses cannot be expected to monitor their IT systems 24\/7. However, no organization can afford to keep tabs on the significant increase in cyber threats. Avoiding serious cyber damage is vital, and protecting some assets a little more than others can go a long way.<\/p>\n

We determine the resources needed to fix the vulnerability as quickly as possible:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. A database of confidential information about your company.
\n2All servers and systems with Internet access.
\n3. Your employees’ laptops, especially for phishing attacks.
\n4. Inquiries directed to customers. a military-registered cybersecurity provider that offers various services such as vulnerability assessment, vulnerability management, penetration testing, phishing testing, and more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
