[Contact Us](https://nextit.valeonetworks.com/contact/)   ## DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE WEAKNESSES IN YOUR NETWORK LIE? Vulnerabilities in your cybersecurity can lead to massive complications for your network, including downtime, compromised data, or even loss of business. But hackers can only exploit weaknesses if they’re there in the first place, and Next I.T. has the solutions to keep you ahead of the game. Our network vulnerability assessments give you a comprehensive view of where you’re falling short. ## IDENTIFY YOUR WEAKNESSES WITH VULNERABILITY TESTING It can be overwhelming to try and identify (let alone repel) all the threats your network faces on a daily basis. And if you’re focused on trying to sustain your workflow and deal with clients, employees, and everything else that goes into running a business, you might not have the time to evaluate your security solution. Which is fine—until it isn’t. It only takes one cyberattack to dismantle your entire operation. That’s why a comprehensive vulnerability assessment is crucial to helping you move forward. A strong network security solution demands an airtight approach with no chinks in the armor. Next I.T. excels at helping companies uncover areas that have been overlooked, underserved, or neglected. Vulnerability scans are the easiest way to find where you’re falling short, giving you a leg up on anyone trying to break through your network’s walls.   ![Valeo-Icon-Graphic-Networks (3)](https://nextit.valeonetworks.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Valeo-Icon-Graphic-Networks%20(3).png?width=148&height=500&name=Valeo-Icon-Graphic-Networks%20(3).png "Valeo-Icon-Graphic-Networks (3)")   ##### Identify, Monitor, Report ## VULNERABILITY AND CYBERSECURITY AREN’T A GOOD MATCH The right approach can make all the difference. An in-depth vulnerability analysis from Next I.T. uncovers deficiencies in your system for optimal protection. [Contact Us](https://nextit.valeonetworks.com/contact/) ## WHAT GOES INTO A VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT? The important thing to realize is that any organization, no matter the size, can benefit from vulnerability testing or [penetration testing](https://nextit.valeonetworks.com/our-services/cybersecurity/penetration-testing/). Uncovering your weaknesses is a crucial way to improve the strength of your [security](https://nextit.valeonetworks.com/our-services/cybersecurity/network-security/) solution. That said, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to vulnerability testing—depending on the size of your company or the needs that have to be addressed, you can take different approaches. Some types of vulnerability assessments include:  - Network-based scans to identify security attacks - Host-based scans to locate vulnerabilities in servers, workstations, or other hosts - Wireless network scans, focusing on access points - Application scans - Patch updates - Database scans ### ARE YOU PROTECTED?
