Scan Procedure
When we perform vulnerability scans for our clients, we follow a systematic approach to identify potential security weaknesses in their applications, ensuring ongoing communication throughout the process.
- After all formalities are completed, a notification is sent by email detailing the timing and necessary preparations.
- The (web) application is manually assessed to configure the scanner.
- With a discovery scan (or two if needed), we gain insights into all web pages, avoiding unnecessary tests of similar pages.
- The scanner settings are then fine-tuned for optimal efficiency.
- Once ready, the scan may take up to 25 hours to complete. A specific scan date and/or start time is possible; we can start a scan 24/7.
- After the scan, we manually review the results to ensure its successful completion before sending out a secured report.
- If your website is secure then happy days! If vulnerabilities are detected, promptly address at least the high risk ones.
- Consider a rescan after resolving issues to ensure optimal security.
