Vulnerability Assessment

A Vulnerability Assessment is the process of identifying, evaluating, and managing potential weaknesses in your organization’s systems, networks, and software. This critical step in cybersecurity helps identify vulnerable points that could be exploited by attackers or lead to data breaches.  

Why is it needed?  

A vulnerability assessment helps organizations to:  

- Detect threats early: Identify potential vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by hackers.  

- Reduce risks: Ensure compliance with security standards and minimize the likelihood of data breaches or attacks.  

- Prioritize fixes: Determine which vulnerabilities need to be addressed immediately and which can be resolved later.
