## Vulnerability Scanning & DAST

There are a number of distinct types of Automated vulnerability scans, all of which perform thousands of tests that would take a pen-tester a very long time, in an attempt to highlight potential vulnerabilities within a system. Of these, two are commonly adopted in the ongoing risk-management of successful businesses.

### Types of Scans
The first type is known as an infrastructure scan and focuses on the devices and networks upon which the business relies to run its core IT systems. A scan will typically target web servers, client computers, printers, routers, switches and various other devices that are regularly the target of attacks by various threat agents.

The results of these scans make it very clear exactly where the vulnerability lies, what it is and how you can resolve it. This can be anything from indicating a misconfiguration within a device to identifying unpatched operating systems and default passwords.

- Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)
- Infrastructure vulnerability testing
- DIY or managed service
- Scan infrastructure and web applications for thousands of vulnerabilities, continuously

The second main type of scan is that of an application, specifically a web application. This type of scan is known as a Dynamic Application Security Test, or DAST. These scanners work by interrogating an application for entry points and functions that can be prodded and poked and fed data with the intention of eliciting results that highlight vulnerabilities in the code and hosting systems. Advanced scanners also allow scripts, APIs, and other real-time functions that help the scanner to emulate a real user (by logging into the system, for instance) thus providing a more realistic and thorough scan.

Many standards, including ISO27001, IASME Governance, Cyber Essentials, PCI DSS, and GDPR expect that vulnerability scanning should be a key component of the modern business and include provisions within their compliance frameworks.

Unity Metrix partners with some of the biggest names in vulnerability scanning and are happy to provide licenses for internal use of the relevant platform, or a fully managed service, offering monthly reports on security findings. In either case, you will have access to full-blown reporting that identifies in detail exactly where the issues are and how that can be resolved.
