Ongoing vulnerability scanning for your key systems

See your vulnerabilities before attackers do.

We run regular vulnerability scans across your infrastructure and turn the results into a clear, prioritised to-do list. No jargon dumps — just what's risky and what to fix first.

  • Continuous or scheduled vulnerability scanning.
  • Internal and external scope options.
  • Clear, prioritised reports — not 200-page raw exports.
  • Support to understand impact and next steps.
  • Designed to work alongside pen testing and other controls.

Short form, then we'll come back with a sensible scanning approach, schedule and quote.

Ongoing visibility, not one-off snapshots

We keep an eye on the day-to-day weaknesses, so your pen tests can focus on deeper questions.

Turn unknown weaknesses into a clear to-do list.

Organisations run vulnerability scans so they're not relying on luck. Regular scanning gives you an up-to-date view of obvious, fixable issues before attackers or auditors find them.

It's part hygiene, part visibility: insurers and customers increasingly expect you to show that checks are running in the background, not just once a year.

We take the signal from the tools and turn it into something your IT and security teams can actually act on.

Regular view of what’s exposed

See where you stand today, not where you were last year.

Prioritised list of what matters

Focus on the high-risk items instead of chasing every warning.

Evidence for stakeholders

Give boards, auditors and insurers clear proof that scanning is happening.

Less guesswork for IT

Your team get a structured list instead of raw scanner noise.

Typical areas we scan.

Scope is tailored per client, but most programmes include a mix of external and internal assets.

Internet-facing infrastructure

Public IP ranges, firewalls, VPN gateways and exposed services that attackers see first.

Servers & key internal systems

Critical servers and line-of-business systems where a vulnerability would really hurt.

Workstations & endpoints

In-scope laptops and desktops, especially for higher-risk teams or remote workers.

Web applications (high-level)

Automated checks for known web vulnerabilities before deeper testing is needed.

Cloud & platform services

Basic configuration and vulnerability checks for major cloud platforms and SaaS where appropriate.

We agree scope and safe scanning windows ahead of time. Scans are non-destructive and scheduled to avoid disruption wherever possible.

Vulnerability scanning vs pen testing – what's the difference?

They're related, but they're not the same thing. Most mature programmes use both: scanning for ongoing visibility, and pen tests for deeper dives.

Vulnerability scanning

  • Automated checks with broad coverage.
  • Finds known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.
  • Designed for regular, repeated runs.
  • Great for hygiene, visibility and tracking progress over time.
  • Shows you where obvious, fixable weaknesses are appearing.

Pen testing

  • Human-driven, manual investigation.
  • Tries to chain issues together to show real-world impact.
  • Usually focused on specific high-risk areas (apps, networks, segments).
  • Ideal for deeper assurance and demonstrating what an attacker could actually do.

Think of scanning as the radar that runs in the background, and pen tests as periodic drills. Together, they give you both coverage and depth.

How it works with us.

We keep the process straightforward and focused on helping you act, not just flooding your inbox with tool output.

1

Scope

We agree what should be in and out of scope — systems, IP ranges, apps and environments.

2

Setup

We configure scanners, access and safe windows so scans run without disrupting the day.

3

Scan

We run scans on the agreed schedule — one-off, monthly, quarterly or aligned to change windows.

4

Report & discuss

We group and prioritise findings, then walk you through what to fix first and why.

You don't just get raw scanner exports thrown over the fence. We help translate them into actions that fit your risk and capacity.

What you actually receive.

Each scan turns into a practical bundle your team can work from — not just a “job done” PDF.

  • Prioritised list of vulnerabilities with severity and high-level impact.
  • Clear indication of what should be fixed first and what can wait.
  • Short summary your management or board can understand.
  • Technical detail your IT team can plug into tickets or workflows.
  • Trend view over time where scanning is ongoing, so you can show progress.

Real people behind the scans — turning tool output into a clear, prioritised plan your team can actually act on.

Who vulnerability scanning is right for.

A good fit if…

  • You already have basic security in place but want ongoing visibility of weaknesses.
  • You're under pressure from insurers, customers or auditors to show regular scanning.
  • Your IT team doesn't have time to wrestle with raw scanner outputs.
  • You run pen tests occasionally and want something lighter-weight in between.

We'll help you if…

  • You're not sure what to include in scope and want a realistic starting point.
  • You need scanning that fits around limited maintenance windows.
  • You want results that line up with your risk register or improvement plan, not a separate universe of issues.
