Findings: Vulnerability Detection

The Vulnerability Detection page in the Security Posture Management application [menu-findings-spm.png Findings ➔ Vulnerability Detection] shows vulnerabilities, as presented by the Critical Vulnerability Management (CVM) and Open Ports risk vectors, affecting your My Company and your SPM Subsidiaries. Vulnerability Detection improves on the capabilities of the Vulnerability Catalog.

  • Detect, manage, and mitigate emerging zero day events with speed.
  • Manage risk more easily with a clear view of all vulnerabilities affecting your company and the evidence of them.
