Understand and improve security with vulnerability assessment
Vulnerability assessment can spot the weaknesses in your security defenses before an attacker can exploit them. A regular vulnerability assessment can help to uncover and address security flaws and refining your cyber security strategy to remediate them. An effective vulnerability assessment requires proven methodologies with extensive and up-to-date knowledge of the latest threats, skills and technology available to mitigate them.
amsecure offers a comprehensive vulnerability assessment service to its client. Cost effective, regular vulnerability assessments can be a useful tool in staying up-to-date when it comes to security.
amsecure performs vulnerability assessments in accordance with "best-in-class" practices as defined by ISECOM's Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM). Our team use both automated tools and manual techniques to identify vulnerabilities that threaten to compromise the security of sensitive information protected by a client's infrastructure, policies and processes.
Infrastructure vulnerability assessment involves identification of the various layers around the application and determining the vulnerabilities/ loopholes existing in them.
Network security assessments usually produce very different results for internal versus external assessment. This is usually because of the lack of firewall and other filtering mechanisms on internal networks, and because the large exposure to Internet traffic for external systems means some security attention has usually been given to these systems prior to assessment. Internal reviews often identify patch management and other problems related to vulnerabilities that have already been announced publicly. There is usually a lot of work to be done addressing known and un-patched vulnerabilities on internal networks.
Our approach to carry out vulnerability assessment based on four phases:
Planning Work with the customer to define and document assessment objectives, scope and rules of engagement.
Host Identification - Identify list of network ranges / hosts, which would be the basis for the performance of the subsequent Phases.
Vulnerability Assessment - In this phase Vulnerability assessment of identified critical devices like Server and network security devices are scanned for vulnerabilities using public and proprietary tools
Reporting - Detailed report with deep analysis and recommendations on how to mitigate the vulnerabilities
