Vulnerability Management
The volatile network environment of most organizations requires them to proactively identify and remediate network vulnerabilities regularly to prevent hackers or disgruntled insiders from exploiting these weaknesses. The process of identifying vulnerabilities, evaluating the risk they pose, remediating and reporting them is called vulnerability management. By using a formal vulnerability management process, an organization is able to more efficiently find and fix security vulnerabilities within their network.
Vulnerability management is a measurable and proactive process which enables organizations to understand the risk of certain vulnerabilities in its IT environment and to ensure its network is not compromised. The process includes the following steps:
- Discover and categorize IT assets
- Audit to scan for vulnerabilities
- Delegate and prioritize effort based on risk
- Remediate by applying the patch, upgrade or workaround
- Confirm by rescanning to validate the fix applied
- Report risk assessment to management
