Determining what vulnerabilities currently exist in your network, what threats potentially affect your organization, and the probability of a breach based on those findings can be a difficult undertaking.
Determining what vulnerabilities currently exist in your network, what threats potentially affect your organization, and the probability of a breach based on those findings can be a difficult undertaking.
Vulnerability Assessments provide an overview of vulnerabilities that exist in your network, while a risk analysis estimates the probability of malicious actors (i.e., “hackers”) exploiting those vulnerabilities in the future. Enumerating vulnerabilities found in your network against high-valued assets in your organization helps determine the probability of an attack occurring and the estimated monetary/reputational loss the organization might accrue if they became victim to an attack.
