Tenders are invited for Selection of vendor for the implementation of information technology vulnerability management and penetration testing solution The Corporation is currently in the process of implementing a network Vulnerability Management and Penetration Testing solution that provides a fully available, scalable, and efficient platform to help us gain access to vulnerabilities across our enterprise and also simulate real-world attacks to find our weak points before a malicious attacker does. This solution must be able to leverage the latest analytics and endpoint technology to discover vulnerabilities in a real-time view, pinpoint their location within our environment, prioritize them and facilitate remediation to ensure that the security loopholes are closed.
