Vulnerability Scanning
Servers, applications, network infrastructure, and other services, once
connected to the network, pose a risk to the organization. Hackers and
malicious users, both internally and externally, may attempt to exploit
these security weaknesses to gain access to sensitive information
assets. Identifying and remediating the risks is critical to protecting
the organization at the perimeter as well as throughout the internal
environment.
Performed in a collaborative manner, vulnerability scanning identifies
and evaluates as many vulnerabilities as possible across The
organization's systems, applications, and underlying infrastructure. The
testing can be performed both internally and externally.
The organization will provide Halock with general information regarding
network ranges as well as specific systems of concern. Halock will map
the entire ranges for responding hosts and perform in-depth
vulnerability scanning of responding hosts for security weaknesses such
as vulnerable operating systems, web services, remote access, network
service configurations, and application vulnerabilities. Efforts are
focused on those systems or aspects of the environment that appear to
present the greatest potential for gaining access beyond perimeter
security controls.
Solution At-a-Glance:
- In depth scanning of responding system, network infrastructure,
platforms, and applications can be performed externally (internet
accessible), internally (private), or both
- Locate and identify responding hosts and services
- Detect over 5,500 known vulnerabilities across 500 operating
systems, applications, and protocols, ensuring the most comprehensive
and complete results
- Comprehensive reporting of findings and risks
- Identify and document approaches and recommendations to resolve
security vulnerabilities
