●● what is vulnerability management
Answer: to proactively detect and eliminate vulnerabilities to reduce
overall security risk and prevent exposure.
Vulnerability Management (VM) means systematically and continuously
finding and eliminating vulnerabilities in your computer systems
●● what is the first and most importnt step for laying the foundation of a
successful VM program.
Answer: Scoping (asset discovery) Systems to Identify Inventory
-*Always begin asset scoping with internet-facing assets*
YOU CANNOT PROTECT AND SECURE WHAT YOU DONT
KNOW
This step includes organizing your computer systems according to their
role, to establish an evaluation baseline.
--This starts with directing vulnerability scanners to a certian range of IP
addresses.
, ●● how to scan remote users
Answer: One way to scan remote users is to ensure they are connected to
your VPN and scanning them over the tunnel, assuming the network and
VPN can handle the traffic.
The better solution is an agent-based approach. Scanning is performed
by a local agent that runs on the host machine and provides the
information necessary to evaluate the security state of the machine, with
little effect on processing, memory, and bandwidth.
●● Tips for effective VM
Answer: Automate as much as possible
-Manual intervention should be limited only to prioritize patches and
negotiate the proper window to apply those patches.
Use VM technology with a solid track record and wide use
Remember to select a solution that can change with the business and
grow accordingly
●● Benefits of a cloud based software
Answer: fast implementation, low maintenance, and pay-as-you-go
