Vulnerablility Management

By regularly performing vulnerability scans, your company will gain valuable insight into the condition of your networked information systems. Over time, the data collected will depict trends indicative of the effectiveness of patching and configuration management processes across the enterprise. Critical hosts, such as servers, are scanned at a higher frequency than non-critical hosts, such as user workstations. Scan reports are consolidated into an easy to read format, including analytical commentary where applicable.

  • Identify deficiencies
  • Get to root causes
  • Prescribe effective remediation

Typically, the test is started from a position of least knowledge about the client’s systems and networks as they appear from an external perspective. Using the Black Box methodology, MVA assumes the role of a malicious external user, with no previous knowledge of your network structure or security plan. The Black Box methodology simulates a malicious external user exploring your externally accessible infrastructure with hopes of gaining entry to your internal assets.
As the test proceeds, MVA works with internal staff to move from a position of zero knowledge to a position of limited knowledge, to a position of full knowledge. As each perspective changes, snapshots of the network security are recorded.

 
As an industry we appreciate incredible forms of design that work in conjunction with the more formal aspects of new media.
