Tenable Inc, a cyber exposure company, has announced a strategic partnership with HCL BigFix, an endpoint management platform, to bring risk-based insights to the vulnerability remediation lifecycle – from assessment and prioritisation to remediation.
The partnership launches with a new integration between Tenable.sc, for vulnerability management on-premises and HCL BigFix’s Insights for Vulnerability Remediation application, to swiftly identify and correlate vulnerabilities, prioritise them based on risk and act quickly to reduce remediation times.
“Many organisations try to tackle the vulnerability overload problem without the proper insight or workflows needed to ensure the most business-critical issues are addressed first. This leaves dangerous flaws unpatched for far too long,” said Ray Komar, Vice President, Technical Alliances, Tenable. “Our strategic partnership with HCL BigFix is tackling this problem at its core by bringing our best-in-class solutions together to streamline vulnerability response workflows with risk-based insights.”
“Enterprise customers often struggle with the sheer volume of reported vulnerabilities coupled with ineffective, manual prioritisation schemes and limited resources. This results in lengthy time-to-remediation, errors and big windows of risk,” said Kristin Hazlewood, Vice President and General Manager, HCL BigFix. “Our strategic partnership with Tenable is dramatically reducing remediation times. This is a giant step forward for organisations who need to secure their most business-critical assets.”
