Get reliable cyber vulnerability assessment services from our experts at affordable rates.
From a Service- based perspective, the definition of a Vulnerability Assessment is a little less specific. This is because a wide range of assessment services can fall under the “Vulnerability Assessment” category, depending on who you ask and who is providing the service.
By definition-any type of service that examines network security or data security can be considered a vulnerability assessment service. Service types that are the most effective in detecting vulnerabilities are the service types we see most commonly used in businesses today.
To identify and report various security risks, or weaknesses in the security posture of a business network. This could be relaxed security controls, out-of-date monitoring systems, or an inactive firewall-for a couple of examples. This information will allow a business to gain a deep understanding of which aspects of their security program needs to be addressed, and they can take action accordingly.
Some examples of service types that might be generally considered vulnerability assessment services would be network penetration tests (pen-tests) and ethical hacking, wireless or wi-fi security assessments, and examination of incident response capabilities.
Additionally, an internal network configuration assessment would test your internal network for security configuration vulnerabilities or access control policies that might be too relaxed. Even phishing-attack assessments could be considered a vulnerability assessment of sorts. Phishing attack assessments would be an evaluation of cyber-hygiene surrounding email and employee handling of emails. All of these are examples of vulnerability assessment services.
This is a comparison of a Reactive approach versus a Proactive approach to both internal vulnerability assessments and external vulnerability assessments periodically. Proactive responsibility surrounding vulnerability assessments will allow a company to examine and collect cybersecurity information regarding risks or security gaps for both internal network concerns and external network concerns.
This information revealed from these assessments should be used to secure their networks from both sides — especially if they are subject to Compliance requirements. External attacks and network breaches have become so publicized, that many organizations may overlook the importance of internal security and risk analysis until they are under attack. Furthermore, using an external company to test the security of your own company is almost always a better idea than using your own IT Department, or your own IT Service Provider for that matter.
Unlike external vulnerability assessments, which focus on outside attackers trying to gain access to a business network, an internal vulnerability assessment evaluates IT security from the inside. It looks at ways that individuals located inside the company can exploit a company’s network and data assets.
Vulnerability Assessment Services can help reveal: Intentional inside attacks (for example, by disgruntled employees, partners, etc.), and unintentional attacks (such as accidental deletion of sensitive data). Additionally, viruses, malware, and other outside attacks are able to breach the network security boundary.
External Vulnerability Scanning: Cyber Security experts use several vulnerability scanning tools to develop a comprehensive external vulnerability assessment. Discover where the holes in client networks reside to stop exploits before they start. Scans are lightweight and host-based, so you don’t run into permissions issues or eat up a lot of bandwidth. You can search across virtually any type of device, from servers down to mobile devices. And thanks to a nightly sync with the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) database, you can rest assured that you’ll always be on top of the newest threats.
Some areas that our efforts will reveal: Unpatched software, Email vulnerabilities, and threats, OS vulnerabilities, and VPN connection threats.
Vulnerability Reporting: Upon conducting a Vulnerability assessment for your company, we will supply you with a detailed report regarding your security concerns. This will help you create a roadmap for implementing the most vital cybersecurity tasks and ultimately reinforcing the security of your business data.
Permissions Discovery- A part of Access Control: You don’t want data falling into the wrong hands — even if that person happens to be a client’s employee. Even if it’s not malicious, allowing access to sensitive information can spell bad news.
Our permissions discovery solution: Scans for sensitive data to root out permission mismatches and ensure the appropriate people can access that data. Drills down to the file type so you know who has access to what. Finds the types of permissions — read, write, etc. — employees have.
PII/PHI Data Discovery: As with payment card information, personally identifiable information and protected health information must be safeguarded at all costs. A breach could tarnish your client’s reputation and lead to potentially expensive consequences because of regulations like HIPAA.

1. Independent Cyber Security Service Contractors and Consultants-offer Cyber Security Consulting Services- sometimes only within a few specific cybersecurity consulting areas. For example –perhaps they only do penetration testing and vulnerability assessments. In other cases, businesses may find that these smaller services lack reliability because they need to work with businesses that provide them the most service hours. Race is different.
2. Larger Cyber Security Service Providers- oftentimes have more capability, but they're also very expensive in many cases. They may force you to purchase services just because they have a specific technology stack. In some cases, larger cyber security companies are only willing to get involved if the end client is interested in an ongoing managed cybersecurity service from the service provider. Race is different.
Our platform-style approach to service delivery is unique because of the strategic interaction between our internal team and our service distribution network. We have an established internal core team of cyber experts. They are responsible for managing our client’s equipment, responding to alerts from our monitoring systems, and keeping things up and running securely. They also dispatch onsite technicians for onsite needs and project-related services for existing clients and new clients alike.
We're usually more reasonably priced than many large cyber-service companies. We don't offer a one-solution-fits-all business type of service, and we won't shove services down your throat that you don't need.

Cyber Vulnerability Assessment- The technical definition is a systematic examination of an information system or product to determine the adequacy of security measures, identify security deficiencies, provide data from which to predict the effectiveness of proposed security measures, and confirm the adequacy of such measures after implementation.

We don’t always require a longer term support contract, but it can help us reduce initial project or consulting pricing significantly. In certain cases, ongoing services are more of a requirement. It depends on your business needs.
Race Computer Services is a recognized Cybersecurity Consulting Services Organization, but we don’t rely on Vulnerability Assessment Services as a regular revenue source. Our Network Vulnerability Assessment Services providers are oftentimes external resources, but they integrate into the rest of our technology and cybersecurity team as an internal team member would.
Race Computer Services provides Vulnerability Assessment Services more typically for Large Scale Businesses and Enterprise Level Organizations. This is because Vulnerability Assessment Services are oftentimes cost-prohibitive for smaller businesses to conduct on a regular basis. Vulnerability Assessment Services do, however; provide a detail-oriented identification of security gaps, and for that reason they are a staple within mandated compliance requirements. Additionally larger scale businesses with larger amounts of personal data may also require them for a variety of reasons.
