Vulnerability Testing

› Vulnerability Testing

Vulnerability testing has become more important than ever in this day and age. Also known as vulnerability assessment, this process is used to identify and measure the severity of loopholes in the infrastructure. These assessments often involve the use of various testing tools, such as network and web security scanners, which help to uncover weaknesses in a system.

Two women discussing vulnerability testing service solutionsAt Vaultes, we offer comprehensive vulnerability testing services designed to alert your business of pre-existing flaws in your system or code and where these flaws are located. With this information, businesses can take the necessary steps to protect their company from certain security risks.

Security Testing Methodology

To properly test for potential vulnerabilities and detect any loopholes, vulnerability testing follows a few key steps:

1. Plan

First, we will work with your business to determine your assessment objectives and scope. We will also review any rules of engagement. This is the planning portion of the process that identifies information and resources needed.

2. Collect Information

The next step involves collecting relevant information about the application and its infrastructure. This may include privilege requirements, business logic and other information that may help during the testing phase.

3. Discover Vulnerabilities

Next, we will work to discover existing vulnerabilities in your system. This may be achieved by using both automated and manual processes. If complex issues are discovered, we may also suggest manual penetration testing.

4. Report

Finally, we will develop a comprehensive report that contains a detailed analysis on the discovered vulnerabilities, as well as recommendations on how to mitigate these risks. Using this information, your business can start to strengthen your security efforts.

Importance of Vulnerability Testing

Team updating application  system to make system less vulnerable to threatsIf your business uses any type of computer or data system, chances are you already follow secure development practices. Unfortunately, many development teams make the mistake of neglecting application updates that arise frequently, leaving your system vulnerable to security threats. When you forgo vulnerability testing, your business could face a number of consequences.

Security Breach & Data Theft Prevention

Customer loss is a major risk that businesses often face when they lack proper testing processes. From security breaches to data theft, these types of situations can get your business bad press which will turn away customers due to a lack of trust in your company. All it takes is one hacker to steal an important file and your business could be forced to close for good.

Financial & Legal Protection

Without vulnerability testing, your business also faces possible financial damage. When data breaches and similar security events occur, you put your company at high risk for lawsuits. These lawsuits can result in multi-million-dollar settlements that could cripple your business. By preventing these security risks in the first place, you could eliminate these financial repercussions.
