Managed Vulnerability Scanning Services

Challenge

Do you know which threats and vulnerabilities require your immediate attention and which ones are less relevant? To improve your overall security status and effectively preserve your investment, it's important to direct resources where you need them most. Our vulnerability management and risk mitigation solution balances asset value, vulnerability severity, and threat criticality.

Solution

Managed Vulnerability Scanning Services (VSS) simplifies vulnerability management. It's like having a security management team available around the clock.

VSS is the perfect solution for organisations that want a hosted subscription-based solution that doesn't require any deployment; scanning is done from the earthwave Security Operations Centre, so there's no setup or configuration; you start managing threats immediately. No matter where you are, simply log into Earthport - MSS Client Portal.

With VSS, you can evaluate vulnerabilities for network resources that are exposed to the Internet. You get to see what the hackers see-weak spots in your systems and applications exposed to the Internet. To minimise the possibility of attacks, you can quickly detect and remediate vulnerabilities.

One click takes you to the VSS Threat Correlation Module, where you can assess how new threats are affecting your risk profile. The risk ranking for each threat is correlated to current asset and vulnerability information about your enterprise. Knowing this, you can prioritise your vulnerabilities and respond quickly to protect your most valuable assets. The Threat Correlation module also gives you up-to-the-minute Threat Intelligence Alerts, so that you have all the information you need to protect yourself.

As part of this service, you get a complete map of your Internet-facing network, including wireless access points and load balancers, so that you have an accurate picture of your assets, vulnerabilities, and security status. It analyses all types of vulnerabilities and flawed configurations on operating systems, network devices, commercial applications, databases, wireless devices, and custom Web applications. Our executive-level metrics and reporting make it easy to evaluate your security status, determine industry and government compliance, measure improvement, and assess costs. This solution is scalable to sophisticated global networks of any size.
