Seriun Vulnerability Assessment

Our Cyber as a Service solution includes a vulnerability assessment. We will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your systems, security controls, configuration settings, and other factors that could impact the security of the system. We will then provide you with a detailed report on the vulnerabilities that we identify, along with recommendations for remediation.

A vulnerability assessment could be considered to be a light weight version of a penetration test using automated tools and techniques rather than manual processes. While both vulnerability assessments and penetration tests are used to identify security weaknesses, a vulnerability assessment is primarily focused on identifying and prioritising vulnerabilities, while a penetration test involves actively exploiting identified vulnerabilities to simulate a real-world attack scenario.

How we do it…

Our first step is to gather as much information as possible about your systems and infrastructure. This involves reviewing network diagrams, asset inventories and other relevant documentation.

Next, we identify the specific tools and techniques to use during the assessment. This may include running automated vulnerability scanners, performing manual testing of web applications or conducting social engineering tests to evaluate the effectiveness of your security awareness training.

Once we have identified the appropriate tools and techniques, we schedule a time for the assessment that works for you. During this time, we work closely with your IT and security teams to ensure that the assessment does not disrupt your normal business operations.

As we conduct the assessment, we identify any vulnerabilities or weaknesses in your systems and infrastructure. This may include identifying outdated software, misconfigured systems or unsecured network ports.

We then prioritise any vulnerabilities based on their severity and potential impact on your business. We work with your IT team to develop a plan for addressing these vulnerabilities and reducing your overall risk.

Finally, we provide you with a detailed report outlining our findings from the vulnerability assessment, along with recommendations for addressing any identified vulnerabilities. We also work with you to develop an ongoing vulnerability management plan to help prevent future security incidents.

The Benefits of Conducting a Vulnerability Assessment

Conducting a vulnerability assessment for your business can provide a range of benefits. Here are a few reasons why you might consider investing in this type of security assessment:

Improved security: By identifying vulnerabilities in your systems and infrastructure, you can take steps to address these weaknesses and reduce the risk of a security breach.

Enhanced compliance: Many regulations and standards require regular vulnerability assessments to be performed. By conducting these assessments, you can ensure that you are meeting these requirements and avoiding potential fines or penalties.

Better risk management: Vulnerability assessments help you to understand the risks associated with your systems and infrastructure. This information can be used to prioritise security investments and allocate resources more effectively.

Increased awareness: Vulnerability assessments can help raise awareness among your employees about the importance of security and the risks associated with cyber attacks.

Competitive advantage: By demonstrating a commitment to security through regular vulnerability assessments, you can differentiate your business from competitors and build trust with customers.
