External Vulnerability Scans
External Vulnerability Scans
Best practice in maintaining a secure system or application is to regularly check for the presence of security breaches by using scanning tools. Because security exploits are public and widely spread on the Internet, taking advantage of known exploits is one of the easiest ways for an attacker to jeopardize a company’s system.
A2SECURE offers comprehensive vulnerability management services, both perimeter and internal, supported by market leading solutions in the discovery of this type of security problems.
Why?
Vulnerability management is considered to be the best method of defence against today’s threats. Most current successful attacks occur because of security problems, misconfigurations, services configured by default or the absence of patches that the software manufacturer makes public, but which the IT department has not implemented. Knowing these threats early is essential in order to tackle them.
It is important to understand that the ongoing review of systems security is an essential practice to establish a first line of defense, but this activity means a workload for IT departments. Therefore, the managed service provided by A2SECURE offers our clients’ IT department the possibility to just focus on remediation duties based on risk, leaving the rest of the activities to the professional team at A2ECURE.
How?
We offer tailor-made projects based on our clients’ infrastructure, their resources and needs. Through partnership agreements with leading manufacturers of scanning solutions, we can adjust to different scenarios around the cloud; analysis window limitations, integration with client’s own ticketing systems, etc.

What makes us different?
A2SECURE has a highly qualified team to develop Ethical Hacking/Pentesting activities supported by various international certifications. But our trademark is our vocation to make our clients understand our results.
A pentesting activity is really useful when the client is able to understand what has been found, the risks it implies and how it has been possible to get there. The latter is the key point: knowing how a successful attack has been possible, understanding if it is necessary to implement additional control and change an internal process that is causing breaches. In short, taking advantage of the exercise transforming it into improvements for the company.
