Identify vulnerabilities and remediation techniques 

Activity overview
Identifying vulnerabilities and implementing remediation techniques is crucial for helping ensure the security and stability of various systems and applications. Many applications and systems handle sensitive information, such as personally identifiable information, financial records, or intellectual property. Identifying vulnerabilities helps protect this sensitive data from unauthorized access and potential breaches. Addressing vulnerabilities early in the development process is generally more cost-effective than dealing with security breaches later. The cost of remediating a vulnerability is often much higher than the cost of preventing it in the first place.
As a security analyst, regularly scanning for vulnerabilities can help identify and address weaknesses before malicious attacks, thus mitigating potential threats proactively. It provides insight into an application’s attack surface, helping enable you to understand potential avenues of exploitation and prioritize critical areas for improvement.
