What Is Network Vulnerability Scanning?
Network vulnerability scanning is the process of regularly scanning your environment to identify security weaknesses—including outdated software, missing patches, exposed services, misconfigurations, and weak credentials. The goal is simple: find and fix issues before attackers exploit them.
- Detect: weaknesses across devices, servers, and network services
- Prioritize: what matters most based on severity and exposure
- Remediate: close gaps with clear, actionable guidance
- Prove: security diligence for audits, policies, and cyber insurance
Why Wisconsin & Illinois SMBs Use Vulnerability Scanning
Most successful breaches don’t start with Hollywood hacking—they start with known vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, or stolen passwords. Regular scanning helps small and mid-sized businesses reduce preventable exposure while supporting operational reliability.
Common Issues Vulnerability Scans Find
- Outdated software and missing patches on servers, workstations, and network appliances
- Misconfigurations (overly permissive access, risky settings, exposed services)
- Weak or default passwords and poor credential hygiene
- Unsupported systems that no longer receive security updates
- Open ports and unnecessary services increasing attack surface
Bottom line: scanning gives you a reliable way to continuously identify risk—before it becomes downtime, ransomware, or a compliance headache.
Who This Is For
- Manufacturing & distribution networks
- Healthcare and HIPAA-adjacent organizations
- Professional services (law, accounting, consulting)
- Construction and multi-site teams
- Any SMB needing better security visibility

Network Vulnerability Scanning FAQ
Answers to common questions from small and mid-sized businesses in Wisconsin and Illinois.
How often should we run vulnerability scans?
Most SMBs benefit from recurring scans (monthly or quarterly), plus scans after major changes like new software deployments, firewall changes, migrations, or onboarding new locations. The right frequency depends on your risk profile and compliance needs.
What’s the difference between a vulnerability scan and penetration testing?
A vulnerability scan identifies known weaknesses (patches, misconfigurations, exposures) and helps prioritize remediation. Penetration testing is a deeper, manual effort to attempt exploitation. Many businesses start with scanning to reduce preventable risk first.
Will scanning disrupt our business or slow down systems?
Most scanning is designed to be low-impact. We align scope and scheduling to minimize disruption—especially for production servers or sensitive environments.
Does vulnerability scanning help with compliance and cyber insurance?
Yes. Many compliance programs and insurers expect evidence of vulnerability management, patching, and risk reduction. Scanning provides visibility and documentation that supports audits and renewal requirements.
What happens after the scan? Do you help us fix issues?
Yes. Tobin Solutions provides actionable reporting and can help you prioritize remediation. We’ll focus on the highest-risk findings first—so you get meaningful risk reduction without guesswork.
