How Sikich Delivers Vulnerability Scanning Services
Whether your business is a large corporation with multiple network blocks or a small company with only a single dynamic IP address, you’ll find our vulnerability scanning easy, effective, and affordable. You can log into the Sikich Compliance and Vulnerability Management Portal to securely view risks and threats against your network as well as your scheduled vulnerability scans.
Results and corrective recommendations are risk-ranked based on priority and provided in both summary and technically detailed formats, appropriate for executives and IT managers. As a user of the service, you can take advantage of email alerts, downloadable reports, graphs, trend analyses, resource tools, and real-time control over running scans to maximize your ability to respond to threats and secure your network.
Because we don’t expect you to become an information security expert, we offer personal, interactive support both before you start scanning and after your scan has finished. Our support experts work with you to provide guidance and help you interpret and analyze your report.

You can configure and review your test schedule and results anytime from a web browser on any computer, mobile device, or smartphone.
