Managed Vulnerability Scanning

Close the door to cyber criminals by identifying security vulnerabilities before they become a problem. BCN will help you minimise risk exposure with a fully managed scanning and remediation service.

What is Vulnerability Scanning?

Managed Vulnerability Scanning involves identifying, evaluating, and reporting on security vulnerabilities that appear in your networks and the software that runs on them. When implemented alongside other cyber security services, managed vulnerability scanning helps organisations reduce their threat landscape.

Essentially the process is the digital equivalent of routinely checking your doors and windows are locked to protect from criminals. Managed Vulnerability Scanning regularly audits and examines public IP address within your network, identifying security weaknesses that can leave your organisation vulnerable to cyber threats.

Vulnerability Scanning Process

How does BCN’s Managed Vulnerability Scanning work?

Our Managed Vulnerability Scanning service will automatically scan your business’s public IP addresses on all ports, monthly. Following this, security specialists will analyse the findings, generate a report and discuss remediation options.

Patches, updates, or fixed available for any “critical” or “high” severity issues found will then be implemented as part of the service. This is usually completed out-of-hours.

If we do not have the administrative access to make the remediation’s required, we will instead provide you with clear steps to avoid the threat.

What threats can Managed Vulnerability Scanning Identify?

Vulnerabilities are now one of the leading causes of successful cyber-attacks, so ensuring your organisation is aware of what vulnerabilities exist and how to resolve them is critical.

Managed Vulnerability Scanning is increasingly important as the cyber threat increases as more of us work from home and no longer have access to filtering, firewalls, and encryption that we would have access to in the office.

Whilst there are thousands of potential vulnerabilities, there are four main categories that these vulnerabilities fall into:

  • tick

    Weak network configuration settings

  • tick

    Misconfigured firewalls

  • tick

    Out-of-date systems and software

  • tick

    Denial of service vulnerabilities
