Vulnerability Assessment

A vulnerability assessment is a structured scan and review of your environment to identify known security weaknesses, validate exposure, and priorities fixes before attackers exploit them. You get a clear, risk ranked view of what matters most across your systems, applications, and infrastructure.

What you get

  • Prioritised vulnerability register with severity and business impact
  • Clear remediation guidance for your IT team or provider
  • Support to confirm patching and configuration is keeping pace with real world threats
  • Prioritised vulnerability register with severity and business impact

Types of Vulnerability Assessments

  • Network Vulnerability Assessment

    Organizations with on premise infrastructure, hybrid environments, or multi site offices.

  • SaaS Application Vulnerability Assessment

    Google Workspace environments, high SaaS usage businesses, and organizations managing sensitive customer or financial data.

  • Custom Built Application Vulnerability Assessment

    Customer portals, internal business systems, booking platforms, franchise management systems, and industry specific tools.

  • Website Vulnerability Assessment

    Ecommerce businesses, service providers, and any organization collecting user data online.

  • Remote Work & BYOD Vulnerability Assessment

    Hybrid organization's, distributed teams, and businesses relying heavily on cloud access.

  • Cloud Infrastructure Vulnerability Assessment

    Organizations operating in public cloud or hybrid cloud environments.

  • Wireless Vulnerability Assessment

    Offices, shared workspaces, warehouses, and multi site environments where WiFi is a critical access path.

  • Network Vulnerability Assessment
    The goal is to uncover weaknesses attackers routinely scanfor and prioritise remediation before exploitation.
  • Custom Built Application Vulnerability Assessment
    Customer portals, internal business systems, booking platforms, franchise management systems, and industry specific tools.

We scan internal and external network infrastructure to identify known vulnerabilities, missing patches, exposed services, and insecure configurations.

This typically includes:

  • Internet-facing assets and exposed services (public IPs,
    remote access, gateways)
  • Servers and network devices (firewalls, routers,switches, appliances)
  • Missing patches and outdated software versions
  • Insecure configurations and weak/default settings
  • High-risk vulnerabilities that enable initial access or lateral movement

Custom applications connected to the internet are prime targets for attackers, especially if they lack structured security testing and ongoing updates.


We evaluate custom web and business applications to uncover vulnerabilities such as:

  • Authentication weaknesses
  • Injection vulnerabilities
  • Broken access controls
  • Insecure APIs
  • Misconfigured security headers Exposure aligned to OWASP Top 10 risks
  • SaaS Application Vulnerability Assessment
    If a third party app is breached, the impact can extend directly into your core systems. We help you understand that risk clearly and priorities controls.
  • Website Vulnerability Assessment
    If your website collects PII or integrates with backend systems, the risk extends beyond the website itself.

Modern organisations rely heavily on SaaS platforms such as Google Workspace, CRM systems, HR platforms, finance systems, and marketing tools.

We analyse all SaaS applications used across your organisation to assess:

  • What data each application can access
  • Third party OAuth permissions and risky integrations
  • Over privileged access to sensitive information
  • Exposure if a vendor or app is compromised
  • Shadow IT and unmanaged SaaS usage

Websites are common entry points for attackers, particularly if they collect personal information, login credentials, or payment details.


We test your public facing website for vulnerabilities that could lead to:

  • Website defacement
  • Data breaches
  • Unauthorised admin access 
  • Malware injection
  • SEO poisoning
  • Reputation damage
  • Remote Work & BYOD Vulnerability Assessment
    The objective is to ensure your remote workforce meets the same security standard as your office environment.
  • Wireless Vulnerability Assessment
    The objective is to ensure your remote workforce meets the same security standard as your office environment.

Remote work and BYOD have expanded the attack surface significantly.

We assess your remote access posture including:

  • Endpoint configuration risks
  • Access levels of your confidential data
  • Device encryption status 
  • MFA enforcement
  • Remote access configuration
  • VPN and identity security controls
We assess your WiFi environment to identify weaknesses that could allow unauthorized access, lateral movement into internal systems, or interception of traffic.


We typically review and test for:

  • Weak encryption and authentication settings
  • Poorly secured guest networks and network
    segmentation gaps
  • Rogue or unauthorized access points   
  • Risky SSID configurations and password practices
  • Device connection controls and visibility gaps
  • Wireless configurations that enable easy brute force or credential reuse attacks
  • Cloud Infrastructure Vulnerability Assessment
    Cloud breaches often occur due to simple misconfigurations, not advanced exploits. We help you find and priorities those gaps before they become incident

Whether you use Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services, or Microsoft Azure, misconfigurations are one of the leading causes of breaches.

We evaluate cloud environments to identify:

  • Publicly exposed storage
  • Over permissive IAM roles   
  • Weak identity configuration        
  • Logging and monitoring gaps
  • Insecure network segmentation
  • Backup and recovery process

Our Vulnerability Assessment Method

SCOPING

We confirm what outcomes you need, define the systems in scope, and map how they fit into your wider environment so the results are relevant and actionable.

ENGAGEMENT

We run the assessment scans and validate the results so you are not left with noisy outputs. We keep communication clear so stakeholders know what is happening and when.

POST ENGAGEMENT

We deliver prioritised findings and walk you through what to fix first, why it matters, and how to reduce risk quickly. All done either in person meeting or via a recorded video call

Vulnerability Assessment FAQs

What is a vulnerability assessment

A vulnerability assessment scans and reviews your environment to identify and priorities known security weaknesses for remediation.

What is a vulnerability assessment

Most organizations run them regularly as part of ongoing security and patch management, with frequency based on scope, change rate, and risk profile.

What is a vulnerability assessment

Yes. The deliverable is risk ranked so your team can focus on what reduces risk fastest.

How is this different to penetration testing

Vulnerability assessments find and priorities known weaknesses at scale. Penetration testing attempts to exploit weaknesses to prove real world impact. They work best together.

Will this impact production systems

Scans can be tuned to reduce risk, with scheduling and throttling for sensitive systems. We confirm this in scoping.

 

Can you assess cloud and SaaS too

Yes. We can scope vulnerability assessment coverage across cloud infrastructure and key business systems, alongside your wider environment.
