A vulnerability scan is the automated process of proactively identifying vulnerabilities of software and computing systems in a network to determine if and where a system or network can be exploited and/or threatened.
Vulnerability scanning usually employs software that seeks out security flaws based on a database of known flaws, testing systems for the occurrence of these flaws and generating a report of the findings that an individual or an enterprise can use to improve the network's overall security posture.
The primary goal of a vulnerability scan is to reduce the vulnerability of a software application, a database, a computer, or a network of computers to hacking, denial of service, infection, and other security risks.
