Vulnerability assessment
Systematic identification of exploitable weaknesses — prioritized by what actually matters, not a raw scanner output.
Who this is for
- Companies that need a documented vulnerability assessment for a compliance framework or customer requirement
- Teams running scanning tools internally but drowning in unprioritized findings
- Organizations preparing for a first penetration test who want to close obvious gaps beforehand
What this addresses
- A compliance framework or customer contract requires periodic vulnerability assessments and none has been done
- Automated scanners produce hundreds of findings with no clear sense of what's actually exploitable
- There's no established cadence for reassessing as infrastructure and applications change
Our approach
We combine automated scanning with manual validation, since scanner output alone tends to bury real risk under noise and false positives.
Results are prioritized by actual exploitability and business impact — internet-facing and high-privilege exposure first, not just CVSS score.
Where useful, this becomes a recurring cadence rather than a one-time exercise, since new vulnerabilities appear continuously.
Every engagement follows the same six-step methodology — see our approach.
What to expect
Scope depends on the size of the infrastructure and application surface in play, and whether this is a one-time assessment or the start of a recurring cadence.
Frequently asked
How is this different from penetration testing?
Vulnerability assessment systematically identifies and prioritizes known weaknesses; penetration testing goes further and actively attempts to exploit them to demonstrate real-world impact. Many compliance frameworks require both at different intervals.
Can this be a recurring engagement?
Yes — many frameworks (including SOC 2) expect periodic reassessment, and infrastructure changes continuously, so a recurring cadence is common rather than a single point-in-time report.
