Vulnerability Management — manufacturing SME
Problem
Networks and servers were not monitored regularly; critical vulnerabilities were only discovered after an intrusion attempt. There was no structured remediation process and no staff phishing awareness.
Solution
Deployment of VMaaS with monthly scans, reports prioritised by CVSS, a remediation plan shared with internal IT, quarterly phishing campaigns and ticketing for employee reports.
Technologies
Network scanner, vulnerability dashboard, phishing module, integrated ticketing system.
Timeline
Initial setup: 3 weeks. Continuous scan and remediation cycle.
Result
Critical vulnerabilities cut by 78% in 6 months. Simulated phishing click rate down from 34% to 9%. Average remediation time for P1 issues: from 45 to 12 days.
