Security Scanning Process

Here, we draft a comprehensive list of an application’s vulnerabilities. This includes testing the security health of applications, servers or other systems by scanning them with automated tools, or testing and evaluating them manually.

Next, we identify the source and root cause of the vulnerabilities. This involves the identification of system components responsible for each vulnerability, and the root cause of the vulnerability.

Then, we prioritize the vulnerabilities, assigning a rank or severity score to each vulnerability based on such factors as which systems are affected, what data and business functions are at risk, and the severity of the attack.

Finally, we close the security gaps through various remediation steps such as introducing new security procedures, updating operational or configuration changes, and developing and implementing a vulnerability patch.
