Vulnerability management as a service is aimed to provide continuous protection of the entire IT landscape (policies and procedures, networks, applications) to detect and eliminate security and compliance gaps as soon as they appear. It offers a consistent approach as well as a tailored set of skills and tools to keep your changing IT environment reliably protected at any point in time.

Do you need vulnerability management services?

While consistent vulnerability management is part and parcel of any mature security program, it can be a lot to handle on your own. Fully outsourcing your vulnerability management to an expert security vendor will likely be a wise investment if:

  • Your IT environment is growing bigger and more complicated, with the tech stack getting more diverse.
  • Your company experiences regular intrusion attempts.
  • Your company operates in a highly regulated field and needs to protect sensitive data.

4 Key Fields We Take Care Of

Internal procedures

  • Security policies: incident response plan, access control policy, remote access policy, change management policy, and more, depending on your business specifics and IT environment.
  • Cybersecurity awareness among your employees.

Network security

  • Endpoints: PCs, laptops, mobile devices.
  • Email services.
  • Security solutions: firewalls, IDS/IPS, network access controls, DLP systems, VPNs, SIEM, IAM.

Application security

  • Web apps.
  • Mobile apps.
  • Desktop apps.

Data security

  • Data repositories.
  • Data encryption.
  • Data backup.
  • Data transfer.

Dmitry Kurskov, Head of Information Security Department at ScienceSoft, says:

Applying cybersecurity measures once and forgetting about them forever is not a viable strategy. A corporate security system should be regularly monitored, assessed, tested, and improved.
