Vulnerability Management

SafeFort, a leading cyber security solution provider in Cyprus, announced an additional service that aims to provide high quality security and meet the customer’s needs and requirements in the best possible way.

Vulnerability Management

Vulnerability management is the ongoing, regular process of identifying, evaluating, reporting on, managing and remediating security vulnerabilities across endpoints, workloads, and systems. 

4 stages of vulnerability management

1. Identify vulnerabilities

The first stage of the management process requires identifying which vulnerabilities might affect your systems. 

2. Evaluating vulnerabilities

After you have identified all possible vulnerabilities in your system, you can begin evaluating the severity of threats. This evaluation helps you determine where to prioritize your security efforts and can help reduce your risks faster.

3. Remediating vulnerabilities

With a prioritized vulnerability management plan in place you can begin remediation efforts. During this phase, you may also want to increase monitoring or reduce access to areas identified as at risk. This can help prevent successful exploitation of vulnerabilities until you can apply patches or permanently increase protections.

4. Reporting vulnerabilities 

Reporting vulnerabilities after remediation may seem unnecessary but it can help you improve your security and responses in the future. Having a record of vulnerabilities and when those issues were fixed shows accountability for security and is required for many compliance standards.

How it works

Through the Vulnerability Management we will examine your entire IT infrastructure for weakness, whether you operate your own on-premises hosted systems or utilize cloud-based platforms. Vulnerability Management identify any vulnerabilities in your system, which might allow unauthorized access by an attacker.

The process required the scanning of all your systems for flaws and weakness alongside with SafeFort expert analysis from our team, will identify the risk against your organization.

Experts recommend that vulnerability scans should be performed at least quarterly, especially after new equipment is loaded or the network undergoes significant changes. The scans will detect if your equipment is compromised such as missing patches and outdated protocols, certificates, and services.

Why Vulnerability Management is important for your business?

When you hire a managed service provider, you should expect that they will stay on top of updates and monitor your system for any vulnerabilities on a regular basis. Even if your own IT department can conduct the vulnerability scan, it may be advantageous to hire service provider, as comprehensive testing requires significant bandwidth and can be intensive on time.
