Vulnerability Management is an ongoing cybersecurity process that involves identifying, assessing, remediating, and reporting vulnerabilities in software, applications, and operating systems. To effectively secure your IT infrastructure, it’s essential to monitor vulnerabilities not only on endpoints and servers but also in cloud platforms, virtualized, and containerized environments. Complete visibility is one of the key principles of modern vulnerability management.
What are the most common vulnerabilities you may encounter?
- Design flaws in applications, software, or systems
- Lack of updates or maintenance of applications
- Web application vulnerabilities
- Configuration errors
- Errors in application source code
- Security flaws in software, such as Cross-Site Scripting, Code or SQL Injection, etc.
- Privilege misuse and access abuse
Why do you need automated vulnerability management?
Vulnerabilities in software, applications, and operating systems are constantly at risk of being exploited by attackers aiming to inject destructive malware, disrupt system infrastructure, or steal sensitive user data. Automated vulnerability management enhances the security of your IT infrastructure by proactively addressing these risks.
What do you gain by implementing a vulnerability management tool?
- Comprehensive visibility of vulnerabilities in scanned systems
- Insights into missing critical security updates
- Detection of misconfigurations or potentially dangerous system setups
- Categorization of systems, applications, and associated security risks
- An overview of current and critical vulnerabilities, including a RISK SCORE and known exploits
- A time-specific view of risks
- Asset visibility within the network
- A proactive vulnerability management tool, including tracking and metrics
- Clear and detailed reports on your IT infrastructure’s security status
Take advantage of our PoC concept for vulnerability management
For our partners and end customers, we provide a comprehensive vulnerability management analysis by deploying InsightVM. Installation, deployment, and basic configuration take less than a day. We will create a dedicated account in the Rapid7 platform to ensure that collected data remains accessible exclusively to you, and we will also request a temporary license for this account. Together, we will define the group of devices to be scanned, as well as the timing and sequence of scans. At the end of the vulnerability analysis, you will receive a comprehensive report on the current state of your IT infrastructure, including recommendations for corrective actions to strengthen your security posture.
