Go West IT | Vulnerability Scanning
Identify your risks. Prioritize your defenses. A clear, technical roadmap to harden your network before a threat arrives.
We leverage industry-leading Tenable Nessus technology to conduct deep-dive internal and external point-in-time vulnerability scans—identifying foundational vulnerabilities, configuration gaps, and unpatched risks that put your organization at risk.
We deploy our Nessus scanning device onsite at your office to scan your internal network. This scans your firewalls, switches, printers, copiers, audio visual equipment, physical security devices, and workstations against a database of over 100,000 known vulnerabilities to identify configuration weaknesses and patching gaps.
We perform a thorough assessment of your digital perimeter from the outside in. External scanning of your public-facing network interfaces identifies “open doors” and vulnerabilities in your assets before they are discovered by malicious threat actors.
In an era of rapid digital change, even a single unpatched device can compromise your entire infrastructure. Many organizations find themselves facing these common security challenges:

How does this differ from penetration testing?
Scanning identifies potential weaknesses without actively exploiting them. It’s a foundational step that is often done before or alongside a full penetration test.
When should I schedule a scan?
It’s ideal for one-time gap analyses, pre-audit preparations, or immediately following major infrastructure changes.
Is remediation included?
The service focuses on scanning and reporting. While we provide the roadmap for fixes, remediation labor is available as a separate engagement.
Does this help with compliance?
Yes. It provides the necessary documentation to meet leadership directives, industry standards, and regulatory guidelines by proving you are identifying and prioritizing security gaps.
Don’t wait for an audit or a breach to discover your network’s weaknesses. Get the technical evidence you need to protect your firm.
