Vulnerability scans

Vulnerability scans

After your initial deployment, it is a good idea to periodically scan your web servers for newly discovered vulnerabilities to current threats. If you discover new threats, adjust your configuration to combat them.

Without periodic scans, you may not be aware of the newest threats, and you may not have configured your FortiWeb defend against them.

For details, see Vulnerability scans.

If you have many web servers, you may want a appliance to:

  • Integrate and automate patch deployment
  • Deepen vulnerability scans
  • Prioritize and track fixes via ticketing
  • Offload and distribute scans to improve performance and remove bottlenecks
