Automated risk-based patching has reduced remediation time and meets SLAs across our hybrid estateThe best features Qualys TruRisk Eliminate offers include prioritizing the assets and automatically eliminating vulnerabilities without reaching out to the concerned team for timely and effective remediations. By using Qualys TruRisk Eliminate, we can remediate vulnerabilities on time. The biggest practical benefit of automating those remediations without involving the security team each time is that we can create security patches and automatically trigger them to all targeted devices. Qualys TruRisk Eliminate provides multiple models such as PM, cloud agent, cloud security, and total cloud. I am currently using multiple models, and everything helps me secure the devices. Regarding Qualys TruRisk Eliminate's AI capabilities, from the governance perspective, we can achieve vulnerabilities within a particular time frame. Its accuracy gives accurate results, and we can complete the activities as mentioned within the SLA. Basically, Qualys TruRisk Eliminate prioritizes vulnerabilities based on asset criticality, CVSS score, EPSS score, and the number of vulnerabilities. Combining these factors generates Qualys TruRisk values and helps prioritize vulnerabilities. It automatically fixes the vulnerabilities if any Qualys TruRisk value matches the conditions or rules. I use the solution's risk reduction recommendation report, which I assess for streamlining remediation. This helps identify vulnerabilities and fix them based on conditions such as asset criticality ranging from zero to five, the number of vulnerabilities, actively exploited vulnerabilities, and the Qualys Detection Score. Combining all these factors makes it achievable. I use Patch Management with Qualys VMDR. The integration is crucial because it automatically includes the relevant patches and configuration changes required to remediate vulnerabilities detected by VMDR without needing additional support from server owners. It patches the vulnerabilities via the agent. Qualys Patch Management's integration with Qualys TruRisk Eliminate influences the prioritization of patches for known exploited vulnerabilities or CISA catalog items by identifying and prioritizing vulnerabilities based on the Qualys TruRisk score, which incorporates multiple sources such as asset criticality, QDS, and the number of vulnerabilities. When evaluating and managing the potential operational impact of patch deployments or remediation actions for maintaining system uptime or application availability, I find that Patch Management does not require downtime on targeted devices and allows us to fix vulnerabilities during non-business hours.
