Benefits of vulnerability assessment

In today's dynamic cyber landscape, businesses face an ever-evolving array of online threats. With bespoke applications, sprawling networks, and countless endpoints, the task of identifying vulnerabilities can seem daunting.

Genosec's Vulnerability Assessment services offer a robust solution to this challenge. We help organizations pinpoint unknown vulnerabilities in both internal and external systems, providing a comprehensive analysis of potential security risks. By quantifying and qualifying these risks, we empower businesses to allocate resources efficiently and remediate vulnerabilities effectively, mitigating the risk of network attacks and compromised systems.

A significant portion of cyber attacks exploit unpatched or misconfigured systems and applications. Our Vulnerability Assessment service is tailored to address this threat, offering prioritized, risk-based recommendations for remediation. We go beyond merely identifying unpatched systems, also detecting misconfigurations, unnecessary services, and compliance gaps. This ensures a thorough approach to securing IT assets and helps organizations maintain compliance with industry standards such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, FISMA, DISA STIGs, OWASP, and NIST.
