Vulnerability scanning

​

Vulnerability scanning is a process where specialized programs are used to detect and describe vulnerabilities in networks, systems and applications. These programs scan all connected devices such as computers, servers, routers and more to identify potential security weaknesses

The main steps in vulnerability scanning include:

  • Identification of devices and systems: The program detects all connected devices and collects information about them.

  • Vulnerability Analysis: Collected information is compared to databases of known vulnerabilities.

  • Risk assessment: Determines how serious the discovered vulnerabilities are.

  • Reporting and remediation: A report is created with the results and remedial measures are proposed.

This is an important process for maintaining the security of information systems and preventing potential cyber attacks.
