What is external vulnerability scanning?
External vulnerability scanning is directed towards the company’s external/internet-facing infrastructure (web server, mail server, firewalls, etc.)
They are typically performed as a black-box test without further knowledge of the company’s IP addresses. However, it is recommended to whitelist to avoid a block due to the amount of requests.
An external vulnerability scanning covers known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations linked to external/internet-exposed services.
