    Vulnerability Remediation Integration with Qualys

    Today the overall correlation process to fix vulnerabilities can take many hours due to manual and ineffective methods of vulnerability research and then communicating results to various teams within the company. With HCL BigFix Insights for Vulnerability Remediation for Tenable, the time required is reduced to minutes as it automatically recommends the most appropriate patch and configuration settings for thousands of vulnerabilities, resulting in reduced time to remediation, decreased gaps in compliance and minimized attack surface.

    Architecture Overview

    The below figure shows an architecture overview of HCL BigFix Insights for Vulnerability Remediation:

    Highlights

    • IT Operations and Security teams can automatically reconcile vulnerability detections with remediation actions, collapsing compliance and eliminating the organizations overall cyber​ exposure.

    • Prioritize and focus on the most critical vulnerabilities from Tenable, then automatically correlate remediation workflows with HCL BigFix Baselines and Fixlets​ using HCL BigFix supersedence engine.

    • Save time and effort on remediation alignment and eliminate cumbersome, manual processes such as file exchange and web searches for correlation.

    • Reduce the need for specialized expertise by providing automation and embedding advanced patch analytics into the process.
