Who We Are

ClickMasters provides professional cybersecurity services for businesses that need reliable digital solutions for their operations, customers, and growth. Our team works with startups, small businesses, and growing companies to plan, design, and develop software that solves real business problems.

Vulnerability Assessment vs Penetration Testing Key Differences

Method: Vulnerability Assessment Automated scanning + manual triage, does not exploit vulnerabilities. Penetration Testing Active exploitation, attempts to breach system using found vulnerabilities.

Scope: Vulnerability Assessment Broad scan all systems, all CVEs, comprehensive coverage. Penetration Testing Narrow specific system, specific scope, deep manual testing.

Exploitation: Vulnerability Assessment No exploitation identifies and rates vulnerabilities without triggering them. Penetration Testing Active exploitation proves vulnerabilities are genuinely exploitable.

Output: Vulnerability Assessment Vulnerability list with CVSS scores breadth of coverage. Penetration Testing Exploitation proof-of-concept depth of confirmed impact.

Frequency: Vulnerability Assessment Continuous or monthly catch new CVEs as they are disclosed. Penetration Testing Annual or major-change-triggered point-in-time authorised attack.

Cost: Vulnerability Assessment Lower automated tools + analyst triage. Penetration Testing Higher manual skilled tester time.

Best for: Vulnerability Assessment Ongoing vuln management programme, CVE tracking. Penetration Testing Compliance (SOC 2, PCI DSS), enterprise sales, new product launch.

ClickMasters approach: Vulnerability Assessment Automated scanning + risk-based prioritisation + remediation roadmap. Penetration Testing Scope-defined authorised testing + CVSS report + re-test.

Vulnerability Prioritisation P1-P2-P3-P4 Framework

Vulnerability prioritisation uses a risk-based framework rather than raw CVSS score. Prioritisation factors: Exploitability in the wild (is this CVE being actively exploited? CISA KEV Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue lists CVEs with confirmed exploitation; these are highest priority regardless of CVSS score), Public exploit availability (is working exploit available in Metasploit or Exploit-DB? reduces attacker skill required), Asset criticality (Critical CVE on development server less urgent than High CVE on production auth service), Reachability (is vulnerable code path actually invoked by the application?), Remediation effort (trivial patch that takes 10 minutes done immediately; breaking major version upgrade requiring 2 weeks planned and scheduled). ClickMasters delivers prioritised remediation plan P1 (fix within 24 hours), P2 (fix within 7 days), P3 (fix within 30 days), P4 (fix within 90 days) based on this framework.

Vulnerability Assessment Services We Deliver

ClickMasters operates as a full-stack vulnerability assessment partner. Our team handles every layer of the software delivery lifecycle — product strategy, UI/UX design, backend engineering, cloud infrastructure, QA, and ongoing support.

01 / 05

Infrastructure Vulnerability Scan

Network-level vulnerability scanning with Nessus Professional or Tenable.io: scan target definition (IP ranges, hostnames, AWS account), credentialed scan (provides SSH/WMI credentials enables local checks for patch levels, config settings, installed software significantly more comprehensive than unauthenticated scans), finding triage (raw Nessus output contains thousands of findings triage to eliminate false positives, group related findings, prioritise by CVSS score, exploitability, asset criticality), remediation report (top 20 highest-priority findings with specific patch or configuration fix). We build software that scales with your ambition from first-user MVPs to enterprise-grade, cloud-native systems. Whether you need a multi-tenant SaaS platform, a custom ERP, an API-first integration layer, or a cross-platform mobile app, our approach remains the same, clean architecture, production-ready quality, and infrastructure designed for 10x growth.

02 / 05

Container Image Scanning

CVE scanning of container images before and after deployment: Trivy (scans OS packages + app dependencies + Dockerfile misconfigs + SBOM most comprehensive single-tool container scanner), Grype (Anchore alternative scanner with own vuln database), ECR image scanning (AWS-native scans on push and schedule, alerts on new CVEs via EventBridge), base image selection guidance (select minimal base images alpine, distroless to minimise attack surface and CVE count, not just severity). Deliverable: image scan report with CVE list, severity breakdown, base image alternatives, SBOM. We build software that scales with your ambition from first-user MVPs to enterprise-grade, cloud-native systems. Whether you need a multi-tenant SaaS platform, a custom ERP, an API-first integration layer, or a cross-platform mobile app, our approach remains the same, clean architecture, production-ready quality, and infrastructure designed for 10x growth.

03 / 05

Application Dependency Audit

Software Composition Analysis (SCA): npm audit (Node.js CVEs in package.json dependencies, including transitive), pip-audit (Python CVEs in requirements.txt, pyproject.toml), Snyk (SCA with fix PR generation identifies CVEs and opens PR with dependency upgrade), OWASP Dependency-Check (Java/Maven/Gradle), prioritisation (not every CVE requires immediate action prioritise by reachability (is vulnerable code path called?), exploitability (known working exploit?), upgrade effort (minor version bump vs breaking major change)). We build software that scales with your ambition from first-user MVPs to enterprise-grade, cloud-native systems. Whether you need a multi-tenant SaaS platform, a custom ERP, an API-first integration layer, or a cross-platform mobile app, our approach remains the same, clean architecture, production-ready quality, and infrastructure designed for 10x growth.

04 / 05

Cloud Misconfiguration Scanning

AWS account misconfiguration scanning: Prowler (open-source AWS security tool 200+ checks across IAM, S3, EC2, RDS, CloudTrail, KMS, Lambda maps to CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark and AWS Foundational Security Best Practices), ScoutSuite (multi-cloud AWS, GCP, Azure generates HTML report grouped by service), AWS Security Hub (aggregates findings from GuardDuty, Inspector, Macie, IAM Access Analyzer single pane of glass). Common findings: S3 buckets with public read, RDS without encryption, security groups open to 0.0.0.0/0 on sensitive ports, CloudTrail not enabled in all regions, root account without MFA. We build software that scales with your ambition from first-user MVPs to enterprise-grade, cloud-native systems. Whether you need a multi-tenant SaaS platform, a custom ERP, an API-first integration layer, or a cross-platform mobile app, our approach remains the same, clean architecture, production-ready quality, and infrastructure designed for 10x growth.

05 / 05

Continuous Vulnerability Management

Ongoing vulnerability identification rather than point-in-time: Tenable.io (continuous scanning scheduled scans, alerts on new critical findings, tracks remediation status over time), dependency scanning in CI/CD (Dependabot or Snyk in GitHub Actions automatically opens PRs for vulnerable dependencies when CVEs disclosed), container image re-scanning (ECR continuous scanning new CVEs checked against existing images even after deployment), monthly vulnerability review meeting (review open findings, new CVEs, remediation progress, update risk register). We build software that scales with your ambition from first-user MVPs to enterprise-grade, cloud-native systems. Whether you need a multi-tenant SaaS platform, a custom ERP, an API-first integration layer, or a cross-platform mobile app, our approach remains the same, clean architecture, production-ready quality, and infrastructure designed for 10x growth.
