Integration with local Active Directory, not only Azure AD, is a must.
Having the ability to build our own audit file, similar to a feature in Tenable, would be beneficial.
The major improvement needed is prompt support.
The current process requires manually telling IT teams to remediate vulnerabilities, and then they update the status of these vulnerabilities in the platform.
