Vulnerability Assessments
Comprehensive vulnerability discovery and vulnerability validation services
Our Approach
We use industry standard tools and proprietary methodologies to identify and validate vulnerabilities, then quantify and categorize them based on factors such as their corresponding real-world risk levels, and provide mitigation and remediation recommendations based on best practices in a concise detailed report. This approach best benefits formal vulnerability management, compliance, and routine audits.
​
Vulnerability assessments allow organizations to understand their security weaknesses and strengths at a fundamental level. Polito's comprehensive Vulnerability Assessment services includes both automated vulnerability scanners coupled with manual triage by our team of cybersecurity experts to provide a hybrid experience that helps reduce or eliminate false positives through thorough vulnerability validation.
