2020-10-28 05:00

Vulnerability management technology addresses the threat landscape, which is in a constant state of flux.

The leading VM platforms provide a complete picture of a client's security posture, correlating the client organization's assets, classifying their importance with the vulnerabilities identified in the scan, and offering information for remediation.

It analyzes end-user willingness to invest in VM platforms that help provide a holistic cybersecurity approach in various areas, including vulnerability prioritization, automated workflows, and third-party integration.

"There is a shift toward bidirectional integration of VM platforms with other technologies," explained Jarad Carleton, Global Program Leader, Cybersecurity at Frost & Sullivan.

"This aids a multilayered defense, which has proven to be superior to discrete technologies working separately in network defense. VM platforms that allow IT departments to conduct continual vulnerability assessments are emerging as one of the top five solutions for organizations concerned about system vulnerabilities as part of their security maturity improvement initiatives."
