Software Vulnerability Management
Risk-prioritized view of vulnerabilities in network devices
Organizations can be tasked with tens of thousands of vulnerabilities on their networking devices. To stay on top of software vulnerabilities requires regular patching of devices. But patching every one of those devices is time-consuming and is likely to affect operations.
“For over 10 years only between 7.6% and 12.6% of all (software) vulnerabilities have been exploited…. Organizations should focus on active threats instead of addressing thousands of vulnerabilities that may never occur in real-world attacks.” CISA
Identifying software vulnerabilities and prioritizing them according to industry standards is key to directing remediation efforts which is why Nipper and Nipper Enterprise provide a risk-prioritized view of vulnerabilities.
Automate software vulnerability checking
Detect all known software vulnerabilities across network infrastructure, with automated assessments for the latest NIST NVD, CVE, Cisco PSIRT CVE, CWE, CAPEC, MITRE ATT&CK® and CISA KEV catalogs.
Risk prioritized findings
Identify software vulnerabilities and prioritize them according to industry standards as well as if they are Known Exploited Vulnerability (KEV) or linked to a MITRE ATTA&CK technique, allowing for effective remediation and patching of the devices that are most vulnerable and exposed to critical risks.
Continual assurance
Nipper Enterprise can provide continual assurance with regular, ongoing checks - identifying, assessing and reporting risk prioritized vulnerabilities.
Research Report
Research shows that exploitable network misconfigurations cost organizations 9% of total annual revenue.
Defend Against Tactics & Techniques
Use threat intelligence to focus remediation resources on hardening networks to the specific adversary tactics and techniques used to target organizations like yours.
Minimize Network Infrastructure Attack Surface
Minimize the network infrastructure attack surface with MITRE ATT&CK misconfiguration prioritization. Nipper Enterprise provides mapping to 10 of 11 MITRE ATT&CK network tactics.
Remediation Analysis to Improve Security Posture
Device-specific guidance on how to fix misconfigurations – including command line scripts in some cases – is provided to decrease the mean time to remediate security and compliance risks and inform POAMs (Plans of Actions and Milestones).
Prioritize Remediation of Exploitable Risks
View assessment findings through a range of security and compliance lenses and risk rating systems to determine which software vulnerabilities and misconfigurations to fix first, to demonstrably strengthen security and/or compliance posture.
