Vulnerability Assessment: A Guide – Security Boulevard

Cybersecurity has become mandatory in a growing tech landscape. This has led to the increased use of vulnerability assessments, which identify, classify, and prioritize vulnerabilities in an organization’s systems to create a security strategy. The assessment comprises the steps: identifying vulnerabilities, analyzing them, assessing the risk, and remediation. Misconceptions abound, such as believing vulnerability assessments and pentesting are the same. Faulty belief can lead to costly mistakes. Tools like Software Composition Analysis and Static Application Security Testing can help in the process.
