Hidden vulnerabilities expose your organization to data breaches, security incidents, and compliance fines. To stay ahead of the evolving threats, businesses must conduct regular vulnerability assessments to locate and mitigate security gaps before attackers can target them. An experienced vulnerability assessment company ensures this process is efficient, tailored to your business objectives, and delivers actionable insights.
As a trusted cybersecurity consulting firm with 22 years of experience, N-iX will help you identify vulnerabilities within your systems and devices, protecting your digital estate from attacks. Our vulnerability assessment services include a thorough evaluation of your IT infrastructure and applications, detailed risk analysis, comprehensive reporting, and expert guidance on remediation efforts. Our professionals follow recognized industry standards, apply assessment best practices, and leverage advanced tools to uncover and prioritize risks effectively.
Achieve enhanced visibility into your security posture and reinforce the shield around your critical assets with N-iX.
Our security experts will use automated tools to scan system components across internal, public-facing, and cloud environments, detecting known vulnerabilities according to the CVE and NVD databases.
We will manually validate all vulnerabilities flagged by automated scanning tools and ensure only confirmed risks are reported.
Our specialists will conduct automated network discovery to identify all devices connected to your network and map their interactions. By locating all network nodes, we will help you analyze and keep track of their access permissions.
We will help you prioritize remediation efforts by measuring the severity and predicted business impacts of the discovered vulnerabilities. To effectively evaluate threats according to business risk, we will use CVSS scores, asset criticality, and other factors.
N-iX engineers will map vulnerabilities to known attack techniques according to MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise for IT and MITRE ATT&CK ICS for industrial clients. We will subsequently help you prioritize patches based on real-world attack likelihood.
The N-iX team will deliver a comprehensive report on our findings, along with actionable recommendations on how you can remedy the discovered vulnerabilities, strengthen security, and prevent future threats.
Networks are the prime target for exploiting inefficient segmentation, weak access controls, and improper firewall implementation. A network assessment helps identify:
Vulnerabilities in servers, workstations, and other critical hosts pose a significant risk to your entire IT infrastructure. A host assessment helps evaluate the possibility of:
Databases and Big Data systems are at risk of data leaks and unauthorized access. A database vulnerability assessment allows you to uncover:
Web applications are common attack targets, often undermined by the vulnerabilities found in the OWASP Top Ten and beyond. A web assessment helps find weaknesses and attack opportunities, including:
Weak authentication, insecure data storage, and missing encryption are key threat factors in your mobile applications. A mobile security assessment helps identify:
Misconfigured and unsecured wireless connections, such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, can create entry points for attackers. A wireless vulnerability assessment helps pinpoint:
We start by engaging the stakeholders and outlining the scope, objectives, and expected business outcomes of a vulnerability assessment. At this stage, we also identify critical assets in the assessed systems, understand their dependencies, and determine their security baselines.
Our experts use automated scanning tools and manual techniques to identify and validate vulnerabilities in the evaluated systems.
After the assessment, we structure and analyze the obtained vulnerability data, determining which weaknesses should be addressed first.
At this stage, we deliver a detailed report on the uncovered vulnerabilities and risks, including both a technical document with in-depth findings and a high-level summary for executive review. We also include actionable remediation recommendations to help you address security gaps effectively.
In addition to vulnerability assessment services, our security engineers can implement the outlined mitigation measures, ensuring timely protection of your critical assets and positioning your organization for long-lasting security.

Vulnerability assessment services can be provided by in-house teams or a third-party vulnerability assessment testing company. With outsourced assessment expertise, you gain access to highly proficient security experts equipped with top-tier scanning tools, a deep knowledge of industry best practices, and extensive hands-on experience.
An end-to-end vulnerability assessment includes automated scanning of your digital infrastructure, identifying known weaknesses, performing impact analysis, and prioritizing threats. It helps you protect critical assets and develop preventive defense strategies against evolving cyber risks.
Vulnerability assessments should be performed at least quarterly or after any significant change to your IT infrastructure. The frequency can also depend on specific industry requirements and your organization’s risk tolerance.
Vulnerability assessment consulting services focus on identifying known vulnerabilities via scanning tools, whereas penetration testing simulates real attack techniques. These practices are often combined into the Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) approach to achieve comprehensive security.
Vulnerability assessment is a crucial part of a more all-encompassing vulnerability management process. After identifying and prioritizing threats, organizations should take steps to mitigate the discovered security gaps, develop or adjust threat monitoring procedures, and conduct employee training to foster a security-aware culture.
