Gaining Peace of Mind with Vulnerability Testing
Data breaches are an expensive problem. According to IBM, the average data breach cost in 2022 was $4.35 million. When looking at the US alone, that number is even higher, at $9.44 million per incident. These figures, of course, do not even consider the unwritten cost of undoing negative public perception.
Regularly performing vulnerability testing is the best method to avoid these costly and embarrassing incidents from occurring. A vulnerability assessment systematically reviews security weaknesses in any information system. It evaluates if the program is susceptible to known vulnerabilities, assigns severity levels, and recommends remediation or mitigation whenever necessary.
The benefits of regular security scans extend far beyond saving money. These tests are equivalent to proactive doctor's visits for people. By routinely detecting and classifying potential exploitations points in network devices, applications, computer systems, and databases, your company can seal security gaps before they become a problem and gain better-performing applications.
