Test 11.2

11.2 Examine scan reports and supporting documentation to verify that internal and external vulnerability scans are performed as follows:

A vulnerability scan is a combination of automated or manual tools techniques and/or methods run against external and internal network devices and servers designed to expose potential vulnerabilities that could be found and exploited by malicious individuals. There are three types of vulnerability scanning required for PCI DSS: – Internal quarterly vulnerability scanning by qualified personnel (use of a PCI SSC Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) is not required) – External quarterly vulnerability scanning which must be performed by an ASV – Internal and external scanning as needed after significant changes Once these weaknesses are identified the entity corrects them and repeats the scan until all vulnerabilities have been corrected. Identifying and addressing vulnerabilities in a timely manner reduces the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited and potential compromise of a system component or cardholder data.
