Scanning is Required by Compliance Standards

Vulnerability scanning is an integral tool in evaluating your company’s network and systems to protect against potential breach and attack. By scanning your network you can stay on top of any vulnerabilities that may exist, correcting those issues before they can be exploited. Many regulatory bodies and industry standards, including PCI, require that regular vulnerability scans be conducted.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard requires companies that process payment card information to carry out vulnerability scans on a quarterly bases. The scan analyzes the client’s systems and reveals areas where weaknesses exist. To be recognized by PCI, these scans must be conducted by an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV).

The scan report is a key component in carrying out remediation and resolving those data security issues that may exist.
