Network Vulnerability Scanning

Every open port. Every exposed service. Found before attackers find them.

Internal and external network vulnerability scanning for UK businesses. We identify open ports, exposed services, unpatched systems, and misconfigurations across your entire network perimeter and deliver a prioritised remediation plan.

What Is Included

Complete network coverage. No blind spots.

From your internet-facing perimeter to every internal subnet, we scan every host, every port, and every service to give you a complete picture of your network risk.

External Perimeter Scanning

Comprehensive scanning of your internet-facing assets including firewalls, load balancers, VPN gateways, and publicly accessible services. Every exposed port and service catalogued and assessed.

Internet-Facing AssetsPerimeter ReviewExposed Services

Internal Network Scanning

Full internal network sweep covering servers, workstations, switches, routers, and printers. Lateral movement risks and internal misconfigurations identified before they can be exploited.

Internal SweepLateral Movement RiskNetwork Devices

Open Port and Service Analysis

Every open port mapped and every running service identified. Unnecessary services flagged for closure. Risky protocols such as Telnet, FTP, and unencrypted HTTP highlighted for remediation.

Port MappingService IdentificationRisky Protocols

Misconfiguration Detection

Network device configurations reviewed for default credentials, weak authentication, overly permissive firewall rules, and insecure management interfaces that create unnecessary risk.

CVE and Patch Gap Identification

Known CVEs matched against every identified service and software version. Missing patches prioritised by CVSS score and exploitability so your team knows exactly what to fix first.

How It Works

From scope to report. A proven process.

Our structured scanning methodology ensures complete coverage, validated findings, and a report your team can act on immediately.

01

Scope Agreement

We agree the IP ranges, subnets, and network segments to be scanned. Rules of engagement documented and signed off before any scanning begins.

02

Discovery Scan

Initial discovery scan identifies all live hosts and active services across the agreed scope. Asset inventory built as a baseline for the full assessment.

03

Vulnerability Scanning

Authenticated and unauthenticated scans run against all identified hosts. Vulnerability data collected from multiple scanning engines for maximum coverage.

04

False Positive Validation

Analyst review of all findings to remove false positives. Every reported vulnerability validated before inclusion in the final report.

05

Risk Prioritisation

Findings scored by CVSS rating and contextualised by your business environment. Critical and high-risk items highlighted for immediate remediation.

06

Report and Remediation Support

Detailed report delivered with executive summary, technical findings, and prioritised remediation plan. We support your team through the remediation process.

Real Results

Protecting UK businesses with network visibility.

Manufacturing Business

A 200-person manufacturer needed to understand their network exposure before renewing cyber insurance. Their insurer required evidence of a recent vulnerability assessment.

Network scan completed across 3 sites in 4 days. 31 vulnerabilities identified, 8 critical. All critical issues remediated within 2 weeks. Insurance renewed with improved terms.

Accountancy Practice

A regional accountancy firm needed to demonstrate security controls to a large enterprise client before signing a data processing agreement covering client financial data.

External and internal scans completed. Clean report provided to the enterprise client. Contract signed. 14 medium-risk findings remediated as part of ongoing improvement.

Retail Chain

A multi-site UK retailer needed to assess their network security posture across 12 locations as part of PCI DSS compliance preparation.

All 12 sites scanned remotely. PCI DSS scope confirmed. 6 critical findings remediated before the compliance audit. Audit passed first time.
