Vulnerability Assessment
Know your real exposure, without the false positives
Automated scanners are good at coverage and bad at judgement. They flag issues that do not apply, miss the ones that chain into something serious, and produce output volume that stalls remediation. Every finding here is manually verified before it reaches your report, then scored on real exploitability in your environment rather than theoretical severity, so your team spends its time on what actually matters.
When you need this
- →You do not have a confident answer to what is reachable from the internet
- →Your scanner output is thousands of lines long and nobody knows where to start
- →You need regular assurance between full penetration tests
- →You are building a risk register and need a credible baseline
What is included
Attack surface mapping
Discovery of what is actually exposed, including assets you may not know are reachable.
Authenticated and unauthenticated scanning
Coverage from both an outsider and a valid-credential perspective.
Manual verification
Every finding confirmed by hand so false positives never reach your remediation queue.
Risk-based prioritisation
CVSS scoring adjusted for exploitability and exposure in your specific environment.
Remediation planning
Practical, ordered fix guidance rather than a raw vulnerability dump.
How the engagement runs
Discovery
Establish the true asset inventory and what is genuinely exposed.
Scanning
Authenticated and unauthenticated scanning across the agreed scope.
Verification
Manual confirmation of each finding to eliminate false positives.
Prioritisation
Risk-ranked reporting with a remediation order your team can follow.
What you receive
- ✓Vulnerability assessment report
- ✓Verified findings with false positives removed
- ✓CVSS scores adjusted for your environment
- ✓Prioritised remediation plan
- ✓Asset and exposure inventory
- ✓Optional re-test after remediation
Tooling
Common questions
How often should we run a vulnerability assessment?
Quarterly suits most organisations, with an additional assessment after any significant infrastructure change, migration, or major release. Many organisations pair quarterly assessments with an annual penetration test, using assessments for continuous coverage and the penetration test for depth.
We already run our own scanner. What does this add?
Manual verification and judgement. Scanner output tells you what might be wrong; it does not tell you which findings are genuinely exploitable in your environment, which are false positives, or which combine into something more serious than any of them look alone. The value here is the filtering and the prioritisation, not the scanning itself.
