Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Granular protection has improved cloud workload visibility and reduced breach and ransomware risk
Trellix Cloud Workload Security is important in our organization because it reduces our risk of data breaches, protects from ransomware, and addresses the misconfiguration of cloud resources such as AWS and Azure. If any lateral movement has occurred in our infrastructure, it provides me with an alert, along with notifications of any container misconfiguration. We also receive continuous visibility of servers and compliance assurance for our vulnerability protection, ensuring that if something is not patched or vulnerable, the vulnerabilities are fixed. The best feature of Trellix Cloud Workload Security is the granular level implementation and configuration of ransomware protection, which includes a threat prevention module and vulnerability protection, allowing us to protect our servers with the help of container security. When discussing the granular level implementation in Trellix Cloud Workload Security, it means that when we configure the policies for threat prevention, we can define many aspects such as the type of file, kernel level, boot level, execution read-write time, memory-specific, and application-specific parameters. We can configure it properly based on our knowledge and also define the schedule for anti-malware scanning and updates. Trellix Cloud Workload Security has positively impacted our organization by improving our visibility across cloud and infrastructure, showing how many workloads we have and what is occurring with those workloads. It enhances protection against threat monitoring through real-time alerts and addresses misconfiguration and vulnerabilities on workloads and running applications. Additionally, it ensures compliance with organizational and industry securities, facilitating faster incident detection and response, which helps our IT and security team proactively remediate risks before major incidents occur. When discussing faster incident detection and response with Trellix Cloud Workload Security, if any alert comes through, such as a vulnerability detected on a server, expanding the alert provides us with MITRE framework tactics and techniques, including necessary remediations for updates or modifications.
