Security Vulnerability Assessment

A scanner output is not a risk decision. We validate exposure, context, exploitability, and impact so teams can address the most important findings first.

When this service is needed

• The organisation needs a server-vulnerability baseline.
• Scanners produce many findings without clear priority.
• Patches or configuration changes require post-remediation verification.
• Internet-facing assets need recurring review.

Scope

• Asset scope, ownership, exposure, criticality, and rules of engagement.
• Authenticated or unauthenticated assessment as authorised.
• OS, package, service, protocol, TLS, port, and configuration checks.
• Validation to reduce false positives.
• Risk rating based on likelihood, exposure, and business impact.
• Remediation guidance, exceptions, retesting, and closure evidence.

Security methodology

1. Scope and baseline: establish assets, access, exposure, and business function.
2. Assessment: collect evidence and validate conditions.
3. Prioritisation: evaluate likelihood, impact, effort, and dependencies.
4. Remediation: introduce change with backup, checkpoints, and rollback.
5. Verification: retest and retain closure evidence.
6. Handover: deliver risk registers, exceptions, and maintenance guidance.

Deliverables

• Baselines and validated findings.
• Risk ratings and a prioritised remediation plan.
• Change, exception, and rollback records.
• Retest evidence and control-maintenance guidance.

Intended outcomes

Teams receive validated findings with priorities, owners, remediation actions, and closure evidence.
