Qualys Expands Enterprise TruRisk Platform with CyberSecurity Asset Management 3.0 to Significantly Enhance EASM Capabilities
Groundbreaking EASM engine empowers cybersecurity teams with accurate, real-time view of asset inventory that reduces false positives
Traditionally, cybersecurity teams rely on disparate sources like standalone external scanning tools, IT-centric databases such as configuration management databases (CMDBs), and API-based integrations to piece together asset inventories. EASM tools have relied on banner-grabbing methods that produce stale, incomplete asset data snapshots. As a result of this piecemeal approach to asset discovery, the average enterprise is blind to 38%* of its assets at any given time.
Qualys CyberSecurity Asset Management 3.0 extends its leading asset discovery for all types of environments—including an EASM engine for real-time and accurate assessment of external attack surface risks, built-in passive sensing for IoT and rogue devices using the already-deployed
"With Qualys CyberSecurity Asset Management, we have a consolidated view of asset and cyber risk data without requiring separate solutions to scan different areas of the attack surface," said
This release enhances
- Gain precise insight into which external assets are attributed to the organization — Discover all assets from subsidiaries, mergers, and acquisitions with patent-pending attribution and confidence scoring.
- Reduce false positives to isolate risk on the external attack surface — Quickly and accurately identify the most critical risk with industry-leading vulnerability detections, reducing 60%* of false positives that result from basic banner-grabbing tools.
-
Eliminate unknowns from the internal network in real time — Uncover 34%* more assets in real time with passive sensing, built into the
Qualys agent to identify unmanaged IoT/OT devices. The third-party connectors complement theQualys sensors delivering a unified inventory, and scan previously unknown assets for vulnerabilities and compliance issues.
"The 'unknown' asset continues to account for a sizeable amount of the cyber risk plaguing the modern enterprise because if you don't know your assets, you don't know your risk," said
