Vulnerability Assessment and Scanning

Many organizations are required by regulatory bodies, including the Payment Card Industry (PCI), to perform periodic external and internal vulnerability assessments. In fact, in the event of a data breach, the lack of effective scanning and reporting can lead to a determination of negligence. Organizations often carry out external and internal vulnerability assessment on a periodic basis to ensure risks are identified proactively and plans on remediation are put in place.

External and Internal Vulnerability Assessments

At DTS we have qualified consultants in our red team that poses some of the industry leading level of certification in the field of vulnerability assessment and penetration testing such as OSCE, OSCP, OSWP, eWPTX, CRT (CREST UK), GWAPT, LPT, CEH etc. The vulnerability assessment is not simply running scanning tools and providing you results but actually go beyond basic automated scanning to provide manual validation and analysis of vulnerabilities identified by scanning and removing the false positives.

The depth of these services helps eliminate inaccurate reports that can occur with automated scanning, and they facilitate a more precise understanding of the real security posture of your systems. The assessment concludes with a detailed report that outlines validated vulnerabilities, risk ratings, and remediation recommendations and a stakeholder debriefing.
