Episode 57: Vulnerability Scanning – Special Considerations
Not all scans are created equal. In this episode, we explore the many considerations that go into planning and executing a vulnerability scan without disrupting business operations. You’ll learn about scan scheduling, network segmentation, regulatory constraints, performance impact, and how sensitivity settings can affect both coverage and safety.
We also explain how to coordinate scanning activities with operations teams to avoid scanning critical systems at the wrong time, and how to balance depth versus speed. Whether you're scheduling scans during maintenance windows or interpreting performance anomalies caused by aggressive sweeps, this episode will help you plan effectively and avoid common pitfalls—both on the exam and in the field.
