Why Integrate Patch Management?
One way Uni5 Xposure completes the customer’s risk management journey is by integrating with patch management tools (i.e. ServiceNow ITOM; ManageEngine Patch Manager, etc.). Below, we detail the top 5 benefits of Uni5 Xposure integrating with patch management tools to continuously mitigate risks and fortify assets.
- Centralized & Holistic Asset Risk Management: Uni5 Xposure brings together a consolidated view of asset risks. Combined with patch management integration, Uni5 Xposure can monitor patch efficacy, automate patches, and continuously reassess asset risks without the hassle of operating siloed tools and conducting burdensome rescans.
- Continuous Risk Monitoring and Compliance: Uni5 Xposure supports automated scans of already patched assets to revalidate fixes, tracks patch deployment schedules, and facilitates the regular assessment and remediation of security findings, vulnerabilities, and control risks. Simply put, by integrating your patching system, Hive Pro Uni5 Xposure automatically re-runs the scan on your patched asset and updates the risk score provided that the patch is complete. This proactive and continuous approach to monitoring risks effortlessly maintains adherence to internal policies and regulatory compliance measures and strengthens the organization’s security posture over time.
- Improved Prioritization: Integrating with patch management tools enhances vulnerability prioritization based on various factors such as severity, exploitability, and patch availability. Uni5 Xposure leverages advanced algorithms to prioritize vulnerabilities effectively, enabling organizations to focus on patching critical issues first. By aligning remediation efforts with business priorities and threat intelligence, Uni5 Xposure’s vulnerability prioritization technology ensures that resources are allocated efficiently to address the most pressing security concerns.
- Faster & Customized Remediation Workflows: Uni5 Xposure’s integration with patch management facilitates faster remediation workflows by linking identified vulnerabilities directly to available patches. This accelerates the patch deployment process, minimizing the window of exposure to potential threats. Additionally, the platform allows organizations to customize remediation workflows according to their specific needs, defining rules and policies for automated prioritization and deployment. This tailored approach enhances efficiency and ensures that remediation efforts are aligned with organizational objectives and compliance requirements.
- Proactive Threat Mitigation: By combining all sources of intelligence embedded in Uni5 Xposure with patch management, Uni5 Xposure enables organizations to adopt a proactive approach to threat mitigation. The platform facilitates timely response to emerging threats by automating patch deployment to high-risk vulnerabilities, thus reducing the likelihood of successful exploitation. Uni5 also uncovers and helps resolve non-patchable exposure thereby offering the most holistic and proactive threat exposure management.
Uni5 Xposure’s comprehensive suite of features empowers organizations to fortify and safeguard their assets while outmaneuvering threats. By integrating patch management, Uni5 Xposure continuously closes the loop on risk remediation and builds for true cyber resilience.Author: Zaira Pirzada
