What is Vulnerability Management?
Vulnerability management is the continuous process of identifying, analyzing, prioritizing, and treating your organization’s vulnerabilities in order to close security gaps and prevent cyberattacks. As part of this process, organizations identify and scan their critical assets to gauge vulnerabilities, analyze their effect on the organization, prioritize remediation based on potential impact, and recommend treatment plans.
Vulnerability Management in Risk Cloud
Risk Cloud™ is a cloud-based platform with a suite of pre-built Applications that transforms the way you manage GRC processes by combining expert-level content and service with easy, no-code technology.
Risk Cloud’s Vulnerability Management Application helps organizations monitor and address vulnerabilities to ensure timely treatment and mitigation. This Application can be powered by the Tenable.io Integration in Risk Cloud, or you can use your preferred vulnerability source or method—a custom integration or bulk CSV imports—to ingest vulnerability data. The Application captures vulnerability data including impacted assets and severity of risk, from Tenable.io* or your own preferred source. Using the Vulnerabilities Workflow, each vulnerability is analyzed to determine its potential impact on the organization and required treatment. Treatment is then initiated, assigned, and tracked through resolution. Centralized inventory and automated reporting ensure critical vulnerabilities are prioritized and mitigated in a timely manner.
