Why is an Application Vulnerability Scan Necessary?
Vulnerability Scanning is a process that scans applications with the help of automated scanning tools and professional expertise to identify and prioritize vulnerabilities and the risk they pose.
Here’s why an Application Vulnerability Scan is Necessary-
- Advanced Protection
It lets you identify vulnerabilities in advance to get them patched before the hackers can exploit those vulnerabilities.
For a company to avoid being a victim, vulnerability scanning sees the cyberattack vulnerabilities before any issues occur.
- Prioritize Vulnerabilities as per Severity
Knowing the vulnerability is not enough per se; you need a systematic method to categorize those vulnerabilities based on severity. Vulnerability solutions, like Appknox, prioritize these risks based on the CVSS score and provide remediation notes on how to fix them.
- Prevents Data Breaches and Reputational Loss
Data breaches result in an outgo of approx $4.35 million. Vulnerability testing highlights and mitigates potential breaches, saving your organization from financial and legal repercussions.
Additionally, if a data breach becomes public knowledge, your esteemed reputation may suffer greatly, potentially causing current customers to seek alternative options and deter prospective clients from establishing a partnership.

What is the Difference Between a Vulnerability Assessment & App Penetration testing?
The difference in Scope between Vulnerability Assessment and Pen testing:
Vulnerability testing uses test cases to identify commonly known vulnerabilities in the system.
Application Penetration testing simulates a potential attacker’s attack to identify security flaws and weaknesses that can be exploited by the attacker on mobile apps.
The difference in Efficiency:
VA takes just a few minutes to a few hours to complete the testing. Additionally, it takes significantly lesser time and money than pen testing.
PT is an elaborate process and takes a couple of weeks to be completed. It is a relatively more time-consuming and expensive procedure.
In terms of Risk Analysis:
A vulnerability assessment report identifies the vulnerabilities and prioritizes them in the order of severity as per CVSS scores.
In addition to identifying the vulnerabilities and suggesting measures to fix them, a penetration testing report tells the degree of access to a sensitive asset, a certain vulnerability compromises, the extent of and the timeframe in which a hacker can escalate the privileges, and exactly how much damage a certain attack can incur.
Depth of Coverage:
VA scans for several CVEs listed by security communities like OWASP, but this assessment cannot identify other difficult and environment-specific threats and vulnerabilities.
PT can unearth complex security vulnerabilities and gaps hidden within the most fortified security systems.
