Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• the system is monitored for vulnerabilities [Assignment: frequency].
• the system is scanned for vulnerabilities [Assignment: frequency].
• system vulnerabilities are remediated within [Assignment: response times].
• the system is monitored for vulnerabilities when new vulnerabilities that affect the system are identified.
• the system is scanned for vulnerabilities when new vulnerabilities that affect the system are identified.
• system vulnerabilities to be scanned are updated [Assignment: frequency].
• system vulnerabilities to be scanned are updated when new vulnerabilities are identified and reported.

Assessment Methods
