Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing
Expert-led testing to find what scanners cannot.
Managed Vulnerability Management
Find and fix vulnerabilities continuously, not once a year.
ThreatGaurd runs your vulnerability management programme for you: continuous discovery and scanning, expert triage, risk-based priorities and follow-up until each fix is verified, with clear reporting for your teams and leadership.
Why it matters
New vulnerabilities appear every day. Annual testing cannot keep up.
Tens of thousands of new vulnerabilities are published every year, and attackers can exploit the most serious ones within days. A point-in-time test shows where you stood on one day, not where you stand today.
Managed vulnerability management gives you continuous visibility and a steady rhythm of fixes, without hiring a dedicated team or running scanners yourself.
-
Too many findings, too little time
Scanners produce thousands of results, and teams struggle to separate real risk from noise.
-
Fixes that stall
Without clear owners and deadlines, critical issues can stay open for months.
-
Gaps in coverage
New cloud assets, laptops and applications appear faster than they are added to scans.
How the service works
A continuous cycle, run for you.
Every stage repeats on an agreed schedule, so new assets and new vulnerabilities are picked up quickly and nothing is forgotten.
- DiscoverFind and track assets across your network, cloud and endpoints.
- ScanRun authenticated and external scans on an agreed schedule.
- PrioritiseValidate findings and rank them by exploitability and business impact.
- RemediateAssign owners and target dates, with clear fix guidance.
- VerifyRetest fixes and report progress to teams and leadership.
What is included
Everything needed to run vulnerability management well.
The service covers the full lifecycle, from discovery to verified fix. Scope and schedules are agreed during onboarding.
-
Asset discovery
An up-to-date view of what you need to protect.
- Network, cloud and endpoint asset inventory
- Detection of new and unmanaged assets
- Asset criticality and ownership
-
Scheduled scanning
Regular, authenticated scanning across your environment.
- Internal and external infrastructure
- Cloud workloads and container images
- Web applications in scope
-
Expert triage
Analysts review results before they reach your teams.
- False positives removed
- Duplicates grouped into single actions
- Context added to each finding
-
Risk-based prioritisation
Focus on what attackers are most likely to exploit.
- Known exploited vulnerabilities flagged first
- Internet exposure and asset criticality considered
- Priorities agreed with your teams
-
Remediation tracking
Follow-up until each issue is closed.
- Owners and target dates for each fix
- Works with your ticketing process
- Escalation of overdue critical issues
-
Retesting and reporting
Proof that fixes work, and progress over time.
- Retesting of fixed vulnerabilities
- Monthly reports for teams and leadership
- Regular service reviews
In-house or managed?
Spend your team’s time fixing, not finding.
Running vulnerability management well takes tools, time and specialist skills. The managed service takes that work off your teams.
| Topic | Running it in-house | With ThreatGaurd |
|---|---|---|
| Scanning | Your team configures, schedules and maintains the scanner. | We configure, schedule and tune scanning for you. |
| Triage | Raw results, often full of false positives and duplicates. | Findings validated and grouped by our analysts. |
| Prioritisation | Mostly by CVSS score alone. | By exploitation, exposure and business impact. |
| Follow-up | Tickets chased manually, overdue items easy to miss. | Owners, target dates and escalations tracked for you. |
| Reporting | Built by hand each month. | Regular reports for teams and leadership. |
Tooling is agreed during onboarding and can include scanners you already use.
Clear responsibilities
We find, prioritise and verify. Your teams fix.

FAQ
Questions leaders ask about managed vulnerability management
Can’t find your answer? Our team is happy to help.
How is managed vulnerability management different from VAPT?
VAPT is a point-in-time test where experts try to exploit weaknesses. Managed vulnerability management is an ongoing service that continuously finds, prioritises and tracks vulnerabilities until they are fixed. Many organisations use both: the managed service all year, and VAPT for deeper testing.
Which scanning tools do you use?
Tooling is agreed during onboarding. We can work with established vulnerability scanners, including ones you already own, and recommend options if you do not have one.
What does the service cover?
Internal and external infrastructure, servers and endpoints, cloud workloads, container images and, where agreed, web applications. Coverage is defined during onboarding and reviewed regularly.
Do you fix the vulnerabilities for us?
Your teams apply patches and configuration changes, because they own your systems. We tell them what to fix first and how, track progress, escalate overdue items and verify each fix.
How do you prioritise vulnerabilities?
We look beyond the CVSS score: whether the vulnerability is being exploited in the wild, whether the asset is exposed to the internet and how critical it is to the business. Known exploited vulnerabilities are flagged first.
How often do you scan and report?
Schedules are agreed during onboarding. A common model is weekly or continuous scanning, monthly reporting and quarterly service reviews.
How quickly can we start?
Onboarding usually takes a few weeks: agreeing scope and schedules, connecting to your environment and running a first baseline scan. Regular reporting starts after the baseline.
How is the cost calculated?
Cost depends mainly on the number and type of assets in scope and the reporting and review cadence. After the scoping call you receive a clear proposal for the service.
