Vulnerability Management and Risk Assessment

In an evolving threat landscape, identifying and addressing vulnerabilities swiftly is critical. At [Your Organisation Name], Vulnerability Management and Risk Assessment is central to our security strategy. It ensures that weaknesses across our IT, OT, and IoT environments are discovered, prioritised, and remediated before they can be exploited.

We begin with automated discovery and scanning. Every connected asset is continuously monitored to detect known vulnerabilities. Our tools check for missing patches, misconfigurations, outdated software and exposed services.

Once vulnerabilities are detected, risk assessment comes into play. We analyse each issue by combining technical severity (CVSS scores), exploitability, business impact, and asset criticality. This risk-based approach allows us to focus resources where they matter most. Not every vulnerability is urgent — but ignoring the wrong one can be costly.

Policy enforcement guides our actions:

• Critical vulnerabilities must be addressed within 7 days.

• High-risk issues require remediation within 14 days.

• Medium and lower risks follow a defined review process.

• Exceptions must be approved and documented.

Throughout the process, tracking and reporting are vital. Forms are used to log discovered vulnerabilities, assign remediation owners, and record verification after fixes. Weekly reports and dashboards provide visibility to stakeholders.
Through disciplined vulnerability management and risk assessment, we maintain a resilient and secure digital environment, minimising exposure and ensuring regulatory compliance.
