Featured Reviews

Roshan Ugale - PeerSpot reviewer
Junior Associate at ESDS Software Solution Limited
Comprehensive risk scanning has protected servers and improves monthly vulnerability remediation
Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Management has a few things that need to be enhanced. First, there is the issue of superseded patches. Superseded means if we miss the current month patch, for example, if we miss the January patch to deploy on a particular server, Microsoft includes January changes in the second month security patch, and then the second month security patch includes all things in March. For example, if we miss two month patches and we directly deploy the March month security patch on a system, the other two patches, such as January and February, will be closed. Superseded means these patches are not deployed on a system, but after the latest one, which we already deployed, the older one does not need to be installed or deployed on a system. Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Management takes a report of each and every vulnerability and shows that the January month patch was not deployed on a system and the February month patch was not deployed on a system. However, that is not a proper scanning method. If we have already deployed the latest patch that includes the older security things or older security parameters and the latest parameters, when we deploy that latest patch, why does Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Management show the older patches also in potential vulnerabilities? That is a main factor that should be improved from Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Management. Second, the remedies provided by Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Management are sometimes not useful most of the time. In that case, we need to troubleshoot or find out the remedies by ourselves. The remedies will also be something that needs to be improved in the system or in the application.

Has improved our vulnerability tracking and supports cloud-based monitoring with scheduled scans
We don't have any issues with Tenable One Exposure Management Platform. It works well for us, but the only problem is the licensing aspect. In the license, it becomes problematic because when we go to cloud security for vulnerability management, it will take five licenses instead of the one-on-one license that vulnerability exposure management requires. The license needs to be reviewed.
