This process ensures a full audit trail and that all aspects of the change are reviewed before implementation.
• Vulnerability management type: Supplier-defined controls
• Vulnerability management approach: KHIPU uses continuous scanning tools like Tenable Nessus and Qualys to identify vulnerabilities across servers, applications, and networks. Findings are assessed using CVSSv3 and prioritised from Low to Critical. Asset and service owners remediate issues, with critical/high vulnerabilities patched within 14 days of discovery. The process includes identification, classification, remediation, and verification, with reports provided within five business days post-remediation.
