Vulnerability scanning

Vulnerability scanning

About this service

IST can perform vulnerability scans of your network segment to help identify hosts offering vulnerable network services. Scans routinely look for vulnerable network-accessible services, and can also be performed upon request. This service also can include installing agents on endpoints, for better monitoring. Note that vulnerability scanning is not the same as penetration (“pen”) testing.
