VM Scans

Vulnerabilities must be identified and eliminated on a regular basis because new vulnerabilities are discovered every day. For example, Microsoft releases advisories and patches on the second Tuesday of each month – commonly called ‘Patch Tuesday’. We recommend you schedule your scans to run automatically (daily, weekly, monthly) and that way you'll always have the current vulnerability information for your hosts.
