Posted May 21, 2022 by citrusconsultinguae

Today, the number of network vulnerabilities has drastically increased, with new types of vulnerabilities and new ways to exploit them.

 
Dubai, UAE - With the widespread use of cloud computing devices and services and increased dependency on IoT, every organization is concerned about its cyber security. Given the fact that cyber-attacks know no bounds, vulnerability management has become vital to security solutions.

Vulnerability management includes scanning and assessment of the network, providing valuable insights and risk context that can be utilized for vulnerability detection and remediation. With complex networks in play, organizations need an effective management solution to thwart the ever-increasing number of threats and attacks.

“We believe that there are three crucial facts that increase the need for better vulnerability management,” says Mr. Dan Sithambaram, the Middle East and Africa Director of Technology Innovation and Customer Success for Citrus Consulting. “We now know that the number of network vulnerabilities has drastically increased, with new types of vulnerabilities and new ways to exploit them. With this understanding, organizations are no longer remaining silent on their efforts to curb cyber threats and increase their cloud security.”

The post-covid world has seen a major shift in the threat landscape, leading to the exponential growth in vulnerabilities. The accelerated digital transformation and adoption of remote working has opened doors for increasingly aggressive cyberattacks, calling for stronger cloud-native security solutions that can withstand this new digital environment.

“To amplify vulnerability management efforts, we recommend better streamlining of your organization’s cyber security efforts,” continues — Mr. Dan Sithambaram. “Use of specialized technology that is integrated with threat intelligence, user-friendly solutions that are easy to implement and use, and reliable security support are the keystones to an agile vulnerability management solution that can withstand attacks and survive better in today's cyberspace.”
