- If specific location search, such as 'city, state', search results will be listed alphabetically by library name in that location. You may filter your library search results by a specific library type, such as Public Libraries, by using the Library type dropdown on the top-right of the results set.
The scanner software attempts to exploit each vulnerability that is discovered. Running a vulnerability scan can pose its own risks as it is inherently intrusive on the target machineâs running code. As a result, the scan can cause issues such as errors and reboots, reducing productivity. There are two approaches to vulnerability scanning, authenticated and unauthenticated scans.
(1) A department or agency can use the results of a discovery scan or asset classification report to identify their assigned information assets and schedule the scan for the baseline vulnerability assessment. (2) Baseline scanning will occur at such time to minimize the impact on time-sensitive system functions (i.e. tax filing season).
