Why Vulnerability Scanning?

Vulnerability scanning is an important aspect of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy as it helps identify potential vulnerabilities in the system before they can be exploited by cybercriminals.

Features and Benefits

Detection

Vulnerability scanning can detect known vulnerabilities in software, operating systems, and network devices, which can be used to exploit a system. By regularly scanning for vulnerabilities, organizations can identify and prioritize the vulnerabilities that need to be patched or mitigated.

Compliance

Many regulatory standards and industry best practices require regular vulnerability scanning as part of an overall risk management strategy. Performing vulnerability scans can help organizations demonstrate compliance with these standards, such as PCI DSS.

Continuous Monitoring

Many vulnerabilities are not detectable by manual means and may be introduced over time through software updates, configuration changes, and other processes. Regular vulnerability scans can help organizations keep track of changes in the security posture of their systems.

Cost Effective

Vulnerability scanning can be a cost-effective way to identify vulnerabilities in an organization’s systems. It is often more cost-effective than manual assessments and can be done by an internal IT team or by an external vendor.
