Vulnerability Scanning
How easy is it for hackers to get access to your data?
Are your web applications your Cyber Security weakness?
Concerned about the security of your website?
SQL Injection is still the number one vulnerability, identify these before they compromise your business
Got business critical applications that you need to be secure
Ensure that they are deployed with security in mind? Don’t let these be the weak link that allows criminals in
Want the ability to scan regularly?
Schedule scans to run at any given date and time. Scan at regular recurring intervals with email notification
More than 75% of attacks are from external sources rather than your internal disenfranchised employees.Verizon 2016 Data Breaches Investigation Report
Reasons for having the vulnerability scan
Equilibrium utilise Appcheck a Penetration Testing tool built to detect security flaws and vulnerabilities in websites, applications and external infrastructure. If you have business critical applications then this is service you must have. The tool has been built and developed over the last decade by a large team of UK CHECK and CREST accredited Manual Penetration Testers.
Whilst we carry out the testing using automated tools, our Vulnerability Assessments are carried out with a large degree of manual interpretation and assessment so that the findings ultimately presented are both easy to understand and contain actionable next steps.
Why does vulnerability testing need to be part of your software development life cycle?
What is a Vulnerability Scan?
A vulnerability scan is a technical assessment which measures how secure your business is at protecting your data.
It is based predominantly, on an automated scanning process which uncovers host operating system along with services running and then compares this list against a database of known vulnerabilities.
The aim of the assessment is to present a list of targets which have vulnerabilities such as out of date software and misconfigurations which could be exploited to gain access to an internal protected environment or extract information.

Do you regularly test your third-party software applications for security holes? Take a listen to our OnDemand webinar alongside AppCheck to find out how vulnerability scanning can be used to help mitigate software security risks.
Infrastructure Security
Web application vulnerabilities are not the only threat to your network perimeter. Unpatched software, configuration weaknesses and software vulnerabilities also need to be managed effectively. In addition to the web application scanning Equilibrium can perform vulnerability scans across your external network infrastructure. We believe that securing the infrastructure is best achieved using a multi-layered approach. As every network is unique not every Security Audit is identical. But it usually does include the assessment of the following areas:
This involves examining technical controls and various areas of the network infrastructure to document security risks and offer recommendations for improvement.
