VULNERABILITY SCANNING

Vulnerability scanning gives you regular cover across your estate. It’s not a manual pen test, it’s how you catch known issues early, track change, and keep risk moving in the right direction between deep dives. We run authenticated scans wherever we can so we see the real picture, not just what an anonymous probe can guess. We tune signal to your stack, take out obvious false positives, and leave you with fixes you can act on.

You can use scanning to keep watch between pen tests, to check new builds before they go live, and to spot regressions after a change. For higher risk systems, or anything that holds special category data, we pair regular scanning with periodic manual testing so you’re not blind to business logic or chained attacks. If you’re unsure where to start, we’ll agree how often we scan so it fits your change windows.

We cover your external attack surface, web apps and APIs with safe test accounts when you can provide them, cloud and SaaS posture including M365 and Entra ID, containers and Kubernetes, and core infrastructure like servers, desktops, and network services. We can also assess code dependencies and SBOMs so you know which third party libraries bring known risk.

We agree scope, targets, safe times, and change controls. We run a baseline scan, review the first results with you, and tune out the noise. From there we scan on a simple schedule, monthly or quarterly for most clients, and validate the issues that matter so your teams aren’t chasing ghosts. If you want tickets raised straight to the right queue, we can integrate so findings land where work gets done.

You get clear priorities, owners, and the why behind the order. You get ticket ready write ups with reproduction steps and references. You get a short trend view that shows what improved, what regressed, and what’s new since the last run. Stakeholders get a short note in plain English. When you fix the important items, we retest to confirm.

Scanning is wide and regular, pen testing is deep and targeted. You need both over time. Scanning keeps the day to day under control, pen testing finds the tricky paths, logic flaws, and chained issues that tools will miss. We’ll tell you when a pen test is the right next step and when scanning alone is enough for now.

We handle test credentials safely, keep data to the minimum, and delete working copies when the job’s done. If you work with special category data or NHS services, we align with UK GDPR and the DSPT. We can support DPIAs when you need them.

Most clients run monthly or quarterly. Higher risk or fast changing systems benefit from monthly. We’ll agree how often we scan so it fits your change windows and busy hours.

Yes, with scoped test accounts and least privilege. We store credentials securely, limit access, and remove them when the job’s done. We also agree safe times to avoid disruption.

We use safe profiles and throttle where needed. For sensitive systems we scan in windows you approve. If there’s any risk, we adjust the profile or approach.

Yes. We can integrate so issues land with the right team and owner. That keeps fixes moving without extra admin.

We remove obvious false positives and duplicates before you get the report. If something looks borderline, we flag it clearly and confirm on retest.
