Prioritizes associated risk from identified vulnerabilities, making them easier to manage

What is our primary use case?

We use it for Vulnerability Management.

How has it helped my organization?

Standard scanning solutions are not able to give any priority in terms of associated risk from identified vulnerabilities. Understanding the real exposure from vulnerabilities and associated assets can reduce the time and investment needed to mitigate risks.

Also, by reducing the number of vulnerabilities that have to be analyzed and managed we have the chance to create a process of management.

What is most valuable?

Identifies direct exposed vulnerabilities.

What needs improvement?

Firewall Change Management has to be improved with rules provisioning on firewalls because that is where the competition is going and is what customers need.

Pros and Cons
  • "It shows me a client's or an organization's entire network. I can see everything."
