Security

Vulnerability Assessment

The process of identifying, ranking, and reporting security weaknesses in a system.

Think of it like

Like a home inspector walking through a house and listing every weak lock, cracked window, and loose railing, ranked by how urgently each needs fixing.

Junior or senior?

Junior sounds like

Ran a scanner and reported everything it found.

Senior sounds like

Can describe how they actually prioritized which findings to fix first, by severity and exploitability.

Ask them

“Walk me through how you prioritized which vulnerabilities to fix first from an assessment.”
