What you'll learn: Forrester cites 14 key areas buyers should consider when evaluating VRM solutions. Our own customers tell us that the following 5 capabilities are especially critical...
5 Capabilities Your Vulnerability Risk Management Solution Needs:
1
Visibility of your complete IT environment
Identify all of your externally-facing, internet-connected assets—including those that may be undiscoverable with other tools—to get a complete view of your risk. InsightVM received the highest possible scores for this capability in the Digital Footprinting criteria.
2
Extensibility & integration
Your VRM solution must enable integration, orchestration, and automation of the tools and processes across your stack. InsightVM also received the highest possible scores for its extensibility and Partner Ecosystem.
3
Reporting for the progress that matters most
Tracking the goals and metrics most relevant and impactful to your team is critical; so is communicating those milestones to peers and leadership. InsightVM is designed to track your progress and drive alignment across the organization.
4
Simple pricing
Pricing and budgeting should be simple. InsightVM makes this easier with a price per asset model—no fine print needed.
5
Prioritization for your business
Identify and prioritize risk with complete coverage of your environment and the addition of business criticality to assets. InsightVM also received the highest possible score in the criteria of Vulnerability Enumeration and Risk-Based Prioritization.
