Vulnerability Management

Vulnerability management is the practice of proactively finding and fixing potential weaknesses in your organization’s network security.

The Need for Vulnerability Management

Network vulnerabilities represent security gaps that could be abused by attackers to damage network assets, trigger a denial of service or steal potentially sensitive information. Attackers are constantly looking for new vulnerabilities to exploit and take advantage of old vulnerabilities that may have gone unpatched.

Having a vulnerability management framework in place that regularly checks for new vulnerabilities is crucial for preventing cybersecurity breaches. Without a vulnerability testing and patch management system, old security gaps may be left on the network for extended periods of time. This gives attackers more of an opportunity to exploit vulnerabilities and carry out their attacks.

Benefits of Vulnerability Management

Prioritizes remediation

Not all vulnerabilities carry the same risks. With a vulnerability management program, your organization can more intelligently prioritize remediation, apply security patches, and allocate security resources more effectively.

Constant monitoring

Vulnerability management is an ongoing activity. It starts with identifying the risk and continues on even after mitigating the threat. Your environment is constantly being monitored to ensure you are one step ahead of threats. Your business will be safer and more secure.

Saves time

The constant monitoring of vulnerabilities will ultimately save you time. If your environment is not being monitored and you experience a security breach, it can cost you hours of labor to get the risk fixed. With vulnerability management, risks that are detected can usually be fixed quickly and easily.

Saves money

If vulnerability management is saving your IT team time, it means you spend less money on managing vulnerabilities overall. Ultimately, it saves you from costly breaches.
