PCI ASV External Vulnerability Scan
Upholding PCI DSS — the financial industry's definitive security standard. Beyond software vulnerabilities, our scans identify critical system misconfigurations. Secure Vectors delivers precision-driven, consultant-grade compliance reports.
Why is ASV required?
ASV is an Approved Vulnerability Scanning Vendor accredited by the PCI SSC (Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council).
- Official Compliance: Only ASV reports meet PCI SSC Standards for acquirers/banks.
- Beyond Free Scans: Generic scans don't satisfy high-stakes financial requirements.
- Unremediated findings in the ASV scan will result in non-compliance.
Compliance isn't running a scan — it's about staying compliant.
As ASV consultants, Secure Vectors bridge the gap between initial discovery and final resolution, transforming a one-time audit into Continuous Compliance.
Secure Vectors is accredited as an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) by PCI SSC — verify on the PCI ASV list.
