Managed security

Vulnerability management as a service

We scan your environment on a steady schedule, sort findings by real business risk and track each fix through to verification. Your team gets a short, ordered list of what to patch next instead of a scanner export with thousands of lines.

  • Internal, external and cloud vulnerability scanning
  • Findings prioritized by risk to your business
  • Remediation tracked and validated by our engineers

Public sector experience

Internal and external scans for 30+ California cities through CJPIA

Recurring by design

Scheduled scans that show trends, not just a snapshot

Fixes verified

Rescans and validation confirm each fix worked

Why managed

Scanning is easy. Keeping up with the results is the hard part.

Most organizations own a vulnerability scanner or have run a scan for an audit. The trouble starts afterward. Reports list every finding at once, severity scores ignore which systems matter most and nobody has time to chase fixes across servers, laptops, network devices and cloud.

Managed vulnerability management turns scanning into a program. We keep scans running on schedule, remove noise, rank findings by exploitability and business impact, and work with your team or ours to get fixes done. Because Triden also runs managed IT and MDR, we can hand findings straight to the people who patch and the analysts who watch for exploitation.

Findings also feed the rest of your security program. Recurring issues point to process gaps, such as missing patch windows or unmanaged devices, and we bring those to your service reviews so they get fixed at the source.

What’s included

Managed vulnerability management services

Asset discovery

An inventory of what is on your network and in your cloud, so scans cover systems you forgot you had.

Vulnerability scanning services

Authenticated internal scans, external perimeter scans and cloud configuration checks on a schedule you choose.

Risk-based prioritization

Findings ranked by exploitability, exposure and the importance of the affected system, with context your team can act on.

Remediation tracking

Each finding assigned, tracked and aged, with clear owners whether your staff or our engineers make the fix.

Validation

Rescans confirm that patches and configuration changes actually closed the issue.

Trend reporting

Reports that show exposure over time for IT, leadership and auditors, including exceptions and accepted risks.

How it works

A repeatable vulnerability management cycle

1

Discover and baseline

We inventory assets, agree on scope and run a baseline scan to see where you stand today.

2

Prioritize

We remove false positives and rank what remains by real risk, then agree on remediation timelines with you.

3

Remediate

Your team or our engineers apply patches and configuration changes, and we track every open item.

4

Validate and repeat

We rescan to confirm fixes, report on trends and run the next cycle on the schedule you set.

What you get

Deliverables from each cycle

  • Current asset inventory for the scanned scope
  • Prioritized findings with plain-language fix guidance
  • Remediation tracker with owners and due dates
  • Validation results for completed fixes
  • Executive summary with exposure trends
  • Evidence for audits, insurers and examiners

FAQ

Vulnerability management questions

VMaaS is an outsourced program that runs vulnerability scanning, prioritization, remediation tracking and validation for you on a recurring basis. You get a managed process and a short list of what to fix, instead of a scanner you have to operate and interpret yourself.

Vulnerability scanning uses automated tools to find known weaknesses across many systems, and it should run often. Penetration testing is human-led work in which certified ethical hackers try to exploit weaknesses and chain them together, the way a real attacker would. Scanning shows breadth. Pen testing shows what an attacker could actually reach.

Most organizations benefit from at least monthly internal and external scans, with critical systems scanned more often. PCI DSS requires internal and external scans at least quarterly and after significant changes. We set a frequency based on your frameworks, change rate and risk.

Price depends on the number of assets and IP addresses in scope, scan frequency, whether cloud environments are included and whether you want our engineers to carry out remediation. We scope it and provide a fixed recurring price.

Yes. Our managed IT and professional services engineers can patch systems and change configurations, or we can hand prioritized findings to your team and track progress. Many clients use a mix of both.

Recurring scanning and documented remediation support requirements in PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, CMMC and NIST frameworks, and cyber insurers often ask about it. Our reports give you the evidence.
