Strengthening Operational Resilience Through Vulnerability Scanning

Implementing Tools to Manage Operational Risk

Operational risk management is centered on the assurance that all vulnerabilities associated with business activities are properly identified and understood, that the associated risks are formally assessed and quantified, and that there is a structured process in place for enacting the decisions made by leadership functions to manage vulnerabilities and the associated risks.

Organizations should regularly assess operations to identify and effectively manage risks through tools such as vulnerability scans, control assessments, operational risk event data analysis, and scenario analysis.

How can Vulnerability Scanning Strengthen Operational Resilience?

Vulnerability Scanning is an integral part of a holistic approach to Vulnerability Management. It is defined as the practice of identifying security weaknesses in systems, networks, and applications. Organizations can proactively address vulnerabilities by conducting regular scans, which reduce the risk of cyberattacks and data breaches.

Vulnerability scanning also helps organizations maintain compliance with industry regulations and security standards, as many frameworks require periodic vulnerability assessments. Implementing vulnerability scanning also demonstrates a commitment to data protection, instills confidence in stakeholders, and strengthens overall security measures.

Regulatory compliance is no small undertaking. It requires the right partner to ensure not only compliance but also an environment of readiness and continuous improvement.

How can you Effectively Identify Vulnerabilities in your System?

CSP has been an innovator in NonStop security for over thirty years and understands the complex security challenges facing the NonStop platform.

No organization is immune to threats. Corporations cannot trust any single element within their organizations. Inaction to provide protection, hoping for the best, is not a strategy.

CSP understands enterprises must continuously check their NonStop systems for inconsistencies, so we developed CSP Vulnerability Scanner v3.0, an easy-to-use vulnerability scanning and reporting tool for NonStop Systems.

CSP Vulnerability Scanner is a vulnerability scanning and reporting solution for HPE NonStop systems that analyzes risks and identifies vulnerabilities by checking the NonStop system’s configuration, access permissions, and security settings. It generates insightful reports for users and recommends changes to improve the security posture.

There is no GUI to install, and users can run reports from TACL and export them using Spoolview. Vulnerability Scanner is also easy to install and use.

CSP Vulnerability Scanner version 3.0 is available now. VulScan v3.0 can now scan Pathways and the OSS environment.

It includes all the features and reports from our previous release, but we have now enhanced it with several new OSS and Pathway reports. Request a free evaluation copy today!

Join CSP at TBC 2025

Nonstop TBC 2025 is only weeks away, and this year’s event will be memorable, as the venue has changed to Texas for the first time.

As a Platinum Sponsor of this year’s conference, CSP will focus on helping Nonstop users achieve security and compliance goals for their systems and applications.

However, when it comes to resilience, knowing who is accessing your system is only the first step in protecting your critical information. How sure are Nonstop managers about configuring user access permissions and the security settings for each user profile? CSP has created Vulnerability Scanner to aid Nonstop users in understanding potential security vulnerabilities in their Nonstop Systems.
