  • Internal Vulnerability Assessments, External Vulnerability Assessments and PenetrationTests – The Differences

    At Vala Secure, we conduct Internal Vulnerability Assessments, External Vulnerability Assessments and Penetration Tests as part of our security test offerings. All institutions are at risk of cyber-attacks, but financial organizations are at particularly high-risk. Financial and other enterprises must invest substantial resources to protect their network and systems. If network systems aren’t secure, vital data and systems can be accessed, and an organization is vulnerable and in danger of data and financial losses. Reported as one of the most trusted providers by consumers1, banks and other financial businesses cannot afford to put their reputation and hard-earned customer trust at stake. An attack can happen from anywhere, not only from an external attacker who want to access sensitive information or disrupt a company’s operation, but also from an internal source. Anyone with a device on the network could potentially knowingly or unknowingly cause harm. This is why several different types of system tests are needed, and Vulnerability Assessments and Penetration Tests are the most effective ways to ensure that your network systems are secure. I’m often asked about the differences and benefits of each type of testing. Each one is critical, so I’ll describe each in detail.
