Why is IT Security Important ?

IT Security, governance and risk management is on the top agenda for global business leaders today. Regulations like Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel II, HIPAA, PCI, GLBA, FISMA, etc are driving corporate governance with increasing financial and legal liabilities for non compliance. CxOs see improving governance, compliance and risk management as their top challenge today while CIOs specifically need to balance security compliance and data protection with the business strategy in line with the regulatory framework in order to effectively discharge their corporate responsibilities

What is Vulnerability Assessment (VA) ?

A Network Vulnerability Scan provides on demand network discovery and vulnerability assessment reporting, remediation tracking, and enforcement of security policies. It is an efficient way to assess business risk and improve your security posture. Potential vulnerabilities would be identified in your system or network, and recommend fixes. This includes fixed and wireless networks.

What is Penetration Testing (PT) or an Ethical Hacking Service ?

Penetration testing exploits the vulnerabilities found to gain access to the system. This approach gives an in-depth report with increased assurance to the validity of vulnerabilities found.

Benefits of VA and PT
