💡 Vulnerability Scanning Explained
Vulnerability scanning is the automated process of probing web applications for known weaknesses. Attackers use tools like Nuclei, Nikto, and ZAP to test thousands of hosts per hour, looking for exposed configuration files, outdated software, and default credentials.
💡 Patch Management Urgency
The window between vulnerability disclosure and exploitation continues to shrink. Critical CVEs are now exploited within hours of publication. Automated patch management, virtual patching through WAFs, and rapid deployment pipelines are essential for timely remediation.
