A Model for Peer Vulnerability AssessmentAdded by Papergrl
Description:
Once a network is set up and running, it is critically important to persistently check the network and hosts to assure they are not vulnerable to attack. Once a system goes up, it becomes a target for a worldwide community of hackers - hackers of all skill levels. And due to the graphical interfaces and scripts available for hacking tools, it doesn't even take a great deal of skill to find and exploit vulnerabilities. Continuous assessment is necessary to maintain security. "Routine, independent reviews of security systems and procedures not only ensure an organization has adequate protections in place, but confirm that they are working as designed - and that the employees are using them effectively."
