Technology Scanning: See Your Landscape, Secure Your Business
Technology Scanning: See Your Landscape, Secure Your Business
Your business runs on technology—but do you know exactly what’s on your network? From third-party software to infrastructure components, keeping track of your digital ecosystem is crucial. Without proper oversight, outdated systems, security gaps, and unapproved technologies can slip through the cracks, putting your business at risk.
That’s where Technology Scanning comes in.
What Is Technology Scanning?
Technology Scanning is a powerful security tool designed to monitor, identify, and catalog the third-party platforms, software, and systems your organization relies on. Using advanced fingerprinting techniques, it provides a clear, real-time overview of your technology stack—helping you spot risks before they become threats.
How Technology Scanning Protects You
With Technology Scanning, your business gains visibility and control over key security risks, including:
- Outdated Software & Known Vulnerabilities
Old software isn’t just inefficient—it’s a security liability. Technology Scanning identifies outdated versions and known vulnerabilities so you can patch them before attackers exploit them.
- Inconsistencies Across Assets
Different versions of software running across your assets? That’s a recipe for compatibility issues and security gaps. Technology Scanning helps you standardize your tech stack, ensuring alignment with best practices.
- Unapproved Technologies
Shadow IT is a hidden risk. If unauthorized or unapproved software is running in your environment, Technology Scanning alerts you, so you can regain control and eliminate unnecessary risks.
- Zero-Day Vulnerabilities
When a new zero-day exploit is discovered, every second counts. Technology Scanning allows you to quickly narrow down and identify affected software, so you can respond faster and minimize potential damage.
Common Cyberattacks Technology Scanning Helps to Prevent
Hackers constantly search for weaknesses in outdated or misconfigured software. Technology Scanning helps protect against:
- Ransomware Attacks – Cybercriminals exploit outdated software to deploy ransomware, encrypting your data and demanding payment for its release.
- SQL Injection (SQLi) – Attackers exploit unpatched database vulnerabilities to steal, modify, or delete sensitive data.
- Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) – Malicious scripts injected into vulnerable applications can hijack user sessions and steal data.
- Remote Code Execution – Unpatched software flaws allow hackers to take control of your systems remotely.
- Man-in-the-Middle Attacks – Outdated encryption and weak security settings enable attackers to intercept and manipulate communications.
By proactively detecting these risks, Technology Scanning ensures that your business stays ahead of cybercriminals.
