Vulnerability Assessment Program

Project Overview

Established a comprehensive vulnerability assessment program providing continuous security testing for multiple clients. The program includes automated scanning, manual verification, risk prioritization, and remediation tracking to ensure ongoing security improvement.

The Challenge

Clients were performing annual penetration tests but lacked continuous visibility into their security posture. New vulnerabilities were being introduced faster than they could be addressed. There was no standardized process for tracking and prioritizing remediation efforts, leading to inconsistent security outcomes.

The Solution

I developed a structured vulnerability management program that includes weekly automated scans, monthly manual assessments, and quarterly comprehensive reviews. Custom reporting tools provide clear prioritization based on business risk. Remediation tracking ensures vulnerabilities are addressed within defined SLAs.

Project Requirements

• Monthly manual security assessments
• Risk-based vulnerability prioritization
• Remediation tracking and SLA management
• Executive and technical reporting
