Vulnerability Management: Authenticated Scanning

Authenticated scanning tells a different, deeper story that helps prioritize weak points in a client's environment

What you will learn:

How authenticated scanning further enhances the ability to identify and prioritize remediation
How clients have used authenticated scanning to discover vulnerabilities that unauthenticated scanning would have missed
How authenticated scanning enhances the power of Secureworks Vulnerability Management service

Organizations deploy vulnerability management solutions to bolster their security programs, but standard unauthenticated scanning often falls short of telling the real story of what is occurring in a client’s environment.

Authenticated scanning provides a deeper view of the vulnerabilities present, peeling back the layers of an environment to show the level of risk and, most importantly, where to prioritize remediation. An emphasis on authenticated scanning results in a more effective VMS solution.
