Moderate Setup (1-3 hours)

You can use Qualys to continuously scan, monitor, and protect your digital assets across cloud environments, endpoints, and networks. It maps unknown devices, tracks security misconfigurations, and ranks vulnerabilities based on real-world exploit risks instead of standard scoring alone. You can also deploy automated patches to fix critical software flaws, manage web application security, track compliance with industry frameworks like NIST, and oversee cloud workloads. It provides security teams with unified dashboards to measure exposure and coordinate remediation across their organization.
