Vulnerability Assessment: The Right Tools to Protect Your Critical Data
Category: Data Management, Security
Tags: security holes, computer security, software applications, software, applications
Overview Vulnerability Assessment (VA) has become one of the hottest fields within the computer security market. VA tools are designed to detect and report on security holes within various software applications, allowing organizations to take corrective actions before a devastating attack occurs. Due to the reduction in "time to exploit" once a new vulnerability reaches the public domain, and the regulatory pressures imposed on businesses within a variety of verticals, the need for reliable vulnerability assessment has never been greater. Unfortunately, the environment in which software applications are developed today is largely driven by schedule and features, rather then stability or security.
