Can automate updates and manage software licenses more effectively
Our team uses the SanerNow CyberHygiene Platform for threat detection, focusing on features like vulnerabilities and asset exposure. The asset exposure feature is packaged with software licenses and machines. We get the latest updates and patches for Windows workstations and applications for remediation. We can automate these updates, which greatly improves our previous manual and scripting-based tools. Before, we struggled with setting policies and making changes to workstations. Now, we can automate updates and manage software licenses more effectively. We monitor who's using various licenses like Office, CAD, Visio, and Lumion.

Increased compliance and visibility boost cloud security posture
Upwind has great runtime detection and response capabilities for our cloud workloads. It provides great context for vulnerability management, allowing us to see what our most important vulnerabilities are. Upwind gives us insight into API security threats and helps us identify misconfigurations in our cloud environments to align with security frameworks like CIS or NIST. With Upwind, we have greatly increased our cloud security posture. Our compliance rates have improved significantly, and they have helped us automate vulnerability management and gain insights into API endpoint security.
