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 First, there is the issue of superseded patches. Superseded means if we miss the current month patch, for example, if we miss the January patch to deploy on a particular server, Microsoft includes January changes in the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 Superseded means these patches are not deployed on a system, but after the latest one, which we already deployed, the older one does not need to be installed or deployed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 become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal
While Zafran Security is already a powerful tool, there are areas where it could be further improved to provide even greater value. One key area for enhancement is the searching capabilities within its vulnerabilities module. By incorporating the ability to create Boolean searches, users would gain the ability to apply more complex filters and customize their search criteria. This would greatly enhance the precision and efficiency with which security teams can identify and prioritize vulnerabilities. Having such tailored search capabilities would save time and resources by narrowing down vast lists of vulnerabilities to those that meet specific parameters relevant to our unique risk environment. Additionally, integrating more robust reporting and visualization tools would be advantageous. Enhanced dashboards that offer customizable visual representations of risk configurations and threat landscapes would facilitate better communication with stakeholders, making it easier to explain vulnerabilities and the rationale behind certain security measures. This would also aid in demonstrating the improvements and value derived from existing security investments to leadership and non-technical team members.

Pros

"Qualys is a very good tool for companies, and the different tools this brand offers bring all the necessary tools for good development for these companies."
"Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Management is a very good software application to scan each and every vulnerability and, through that, it prevents the attackers from exploiting the systems, servers, or our data and prevents data leaks in short."
"We are able to see the real risk of a vulnerability on our environment with our security tools."
"With Zafran Security, it integrates with your security controls, allowing you to take that risk score and reduce it based on the controls in place or increase the risk based on different factors, such as if the issue is internet reachable or if there's an exploit in the wild."
"Zafran is an excellent tool."
"We saw benefits from Zafran Security almost immediately after deploying it."
"Overall, we have seen about eighty-seven percent reduction of the number of vulnerabilities that require urgency to remediate, specifically the number of criticals."
"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."
 

Cons

"When a customer does not have control over vulnerabilities or architecture and needs a solution that automates this function for the company, it can be difficult to identify the vulnerabilities."
"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."
"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."
"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."
"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
