Vulnerability Scans Clause Samples

Vulnerability Scans. ‌ The Contractor shall perform vulnerability scans on Contractor applications that receive, process, store, transmit, access or protect sensitive OAG Protected Data and SAVNS Data. These scans shall be performed on both the Application and/or Operating System (OS) on at least a quarterly basis. In addition, the Contractor shall perform scans for any major system change in the application, OS, or server to identify any potential vulnerabilities that are introduced with the release of new software or hardware. The Contractor shall provide a report to the OAG Contract Manager within two (2) Business Days after the scan has been performed. To track all previous and/or new security vulnerabilities that may exist within a system, a Plan of Action and Milestones spreadsheet shall be utilized for each system/application. This spreadsheet will be a means for both the OAG and the Contractor to track the status of previous and newly discovered security vulnerabilities with the details of the steps taken to completion. 14.3.3.1 Remediation of critical and high vulnerabilities is required within thirty (30) calendar days unless the effort can be shown to be problematic. Remediation of medium vulnerabilities are on a case-by-case basis agreed to by the parties within sixty (60) calendar days. Remediations of low vulnerabilities is not required.

Vulnerability Scans. A vulnerability scan (“Scan”) is necessary for PC, IP enabled terminal, or integrated ECR merchants. Here are the steps to receive your Scan: 1. Once you have completed your SAQ, the system will guide you to schedule a Scan, if applicable. 2. The Scan will identify vulnerabilities or gaps that may allow unauthorized or malicious users to gain access to your network and potentially compromise cardholder data. The Scan does not require you to install any software, and no denial-of-service attacks will be performed. 3. Upon completion of the Scan, you will receive a link to your full compliance report. A network vulnerability review failure means that the Scan discovered areas of severe vulnerability. The report describes the issues found and provides you with recommendations for scan resources to begin fixing the problems. The tool will guide you to remediate the failed Scan and work toward achieving compliance. Once you have addressed the vulnerabilities, simply schedule a follow-up Scan to ensure your remediation of the problem meets the PCI DSS requirements.

Vulnerability Scans. A vulnerability scan (“Scan”) is necessary for any merchant with Internet accessible I/P addresses connected to or that could allow access to their cardholder data environment. This includes, but is not limited to internet connected terminals, internet connected registers, and ecommerce environments. Here are the steps to receive your Scan: 1. Once you have completed your SAQ, the system will guide you to schedule a Scan, if applicable. 2. The Scan will identify vulnerabilities or gaps that may allow unauthorized or malicious users to gain access to your network and potentially compromise cardholder data. The Scan does not require you to install any software, and no denial-of-service attacks will be performed. 3. Upon completion of the Scan, you will receive a link to your full compliance report. A network vulnerability review failure means that the Scan discovered areas of severe vulnerability. The report describes the issues found and provides you with recommendations for scan resources to begin fixing the problems. The tool will guide you to remediate the failed Scan and work toward achieving compliance.

Vulnerability Scans. A vulnerability scan (“Scan”) is necessary for PC, IP enabled terminal, or integrated ECR merchants (SAQ A-EP, SAQ B-IP, SAQ C or SAQ D Merchants). Here are the steps to receive Merchant’s Scan: 1. Once Merchant has completed Merchant’s SAQ, the system will guide Merchant to schedule Merchant’s Scan, if applicable. 2. The Scan will identify vulnerabilities or gaps that may allow unauthorized or malicious users to gain access to Merchant’s network and potentially compromise cardholder data. The Scan does not require Merchant to install any software, and no denial-of-service attacks will be performed. 3. Upon completion of the Scan, Merchant will receive a link to Merchant’s full compliance report. If Merchant fails network vulnerability review, this means that the Scan discovered areas of severe vulnerability. The TrustKeeper report describes the issues found and provides Merchant with recommendations for scan resources to begin fixing the problems. The tool will guide Merchant to remediate the failed Scan and work toward achieving compliance. Once Merchant has addressed the vulnerabilities, simply schedule a follow-up Scan to ensure Merchant’s remediation of the problem meets the PCI DSS requirements.

Vulnerability Scans. A vulnerability scan is an automated process that examines websites and applications for security issues. While no scan is perfect, running automated scans is an accepted best practice for enhancing the protection of data and functionality. Vulnerability code analysis means running automated security scans on the code base. MasterTrack runs both regular vulnerability scans and vulnerability code least every six months and as well as on an ad hoc basis.

Vulnerability Scans. Pearson has a single, global vulnerability scanning and management program for its entire server/hosting estate. Coverage includes co-located and cloud-based servers, as well as all of the data centers managed directly by Pearson. Scanning is executed on an ongoing periodic basis for all servers/networks in scope, with critical applications and services are scanned more frequently depending upon the severity and necessity. Vulnerabilities discovered as part of Pearson vulnerability management program are assessed, collated and presented to individual application and system owners for remediation. Pearson then tracks the risk represented by vulnerabilities, and identifies where remediation requires additional attention or escalation through a Risk Exception process. When highly critical vulnerabilities are released, or threats are assessed as being high priority, Pearson executes a global remediation plan independent of vulnerability scanning to ensure the gap between vulnerability and closure is as small as possible. ● Pearson does not authorize customers to perform vulnerability scans or penetration scans against Pearson products which are shared with other customers. ● Pearson may share the results of our security assessments with our customers ● We will provide high level summaries via email under NDA. ● We will share actual vulnerability data on site and in person.

Vulnerability Scans. Centercode (either directly or through third parties) shall scan all internet-accessible sites related to Customer’s Services at least annually and at any time a major change is made to a hosted site that could introduce vulnerabilities using industry standard scanning tools such as Nessus.

Vulnerability Scans. A vulnerability scan (“Scan”) is necessary for may not waive, forgive, release, assign or in any manner fail to insist on strict performance of Sections 2.B, 2.D, 5.B.iii, 6.A, and 14.▇.

Vulnerability Scans. External and internal vulnerability scans are performed at least quarterly. Internal scans are also performed after major changes.
