Why Regular Network Vulnerability Scanning Is Essential for Modern IT Security

Cyber threats hit businesses of all sizes every day. Attackers constantly probe networks and applications, searching for weaknesses they can exploit. Ignoring these risks can lead to serious consequences; data breaches, system downtime, and costly compliance failures.

At Fizen Technology, we take a proactive approach. Team leads have provided vulnerability scanning services for years, making the service a core part of our managed IT solutions. Instead of just running scans, we build automated, secure, and reliable systems that keep our clients protected and fully aligned with industry standards.

Trusted Automation for Real-Time Protection

One of the ways we deliver value is through automated network scans. These are scheduled via cronjobs and are configured to run regular Nmap scans on both internal networks and public-facing assets. After scanning, results are processed automatically, formatted into reports, and securely uploaded to the cloud.

And, we have built and deployed our solutions for many of our managed IT clients. It’s proven, it works, and it saves time and effort while making security stronger.

Built with Compliance in Mind

Vulnerability assessments are not just a best practice, they are a requirement. Security frameworks such as:

• NIST 800-53
• SOC 2
• PCI-DSS

all mandate routine scanning and vulnerability management as part of a mature security program.

By partnering with Fizen Technology, our clients stay aligned with these standards. Our tools generate vulnerability reports, store them securely, and prepare them for review.

Behind the Scenes: How It Works

Here’s a look at what goes into our scanning system:

• We rely on proprietary scripts and proven tools to run advanced scans, including service and OS detection.
• Once complete, the system converts results into clean, professional PDFs.
• Our SFTP process then securely backs up these reports, making them easy to retrieve for compliance.
• To support traceability, we add logs and timestamps throughout the workflow.
• The platform also archives old reports and confirms that uploads are successful.

In addition, our platform archives old reports and verifies successful uploads.

Application-Level Scans with OWASP ZAP

Beyond the network, web applications are often the easiest entry point for attackers. That’s why we also offer OWASP Top 10 vulnerability scanning using a OWASP minded toolset for identifying issues like:

• SQL Injection
• Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
• Broken Authentication
• Insecure Deserialization

The technology team at Fizen provides our clients with clear, actionable reports that developers and IT teams can use to patch weaknesses before they’re exploited.
