Understanding Security Threats

Vulnerability Types

Security vulnerabilities can range from SQL injection and XSS attacks to buffer overflows and privilege escalation. Understanding these threat types helps organizations prioritize their security efforts effectively.

Risk Assessment

CVSS scores provide standardized vulnerability severity ratings. Critical vulnerabilities (9.0-10.0) require immediate attention, while lower scores may be addressed through scheduled maintenance windows.

Mitigation Strategies

Effective security requires layered defenses including regular patching, network segmentation, access controls, and continuous monitoring. DEFSCAN helps identify and prioritize these security measures.
