RedSeal Vulnerability Advisor

Makes Network Advisor Even Better

Vulnerability Advisor is an add-on software product that takes Network Advisor to the next level. Leveraging Network Advisor's network analysis and mapping engine, Vulnerability Advisor correlates known vulnerabilities and network access. It highlights the pathways and vulnerabilities that hackers could exploit to compromise your most critical assets. Using Vulnerability Advisor, you can proactively identify critical risk factors to protect your organisation from costly breaches.
 

Correlates Network Access With Vulnerabilities

Vulnerability Advisor picks up where vulnerability scanners leave off. While these scanners excel at finding vulnerabilities, they're not designed to determine which vulnerabilities pose the greatest risk — or don't represent a risk at all. Vulnerability Advisor correlates network access and vulnerabilities so you know exactly where your network is exposed to threat sources. It also identifies the pathways hackers could use to compromise your critical assets. And best of all, you can fully leverage your significant network security investment to determine which vulnerabilities have been mitigated.
 

Provides Interactive Security Visualisations

Like Network Advisor, Vulnerability Advisor provides security visualisations that streamline configuration data, quickly identify and prioritise vulnerabilities, and clearly communicate their severity. Vulnerability Advisor's interactive Threat Map uses visualisation techniques that enable you to quickly isolate vulnerable pathways exposed to threat sources. Vulnerability Advisor also provides a Risk Map that leverages heat map visualisations to provide a holistic view of all systems. This allows you to quickly highlight network hot spots based on your most important criteria.
 

Tracks & Reports Vulnerability Risk Metrics

Vulnerability Advisor automatically calculates the vulnerability metrics that matter to your business. Vulnerability Advisor provides significant insight into the quality of your vulnerability management, how new vulnerabilities and IT changes impact your security posture and whether or not your efforts are reducing risk.
 

Assesses The Risk of Change Requests

Change requests often require network operators to unwittingly open new access points that can become holes in your network security infrastructure. Vulnerability Advisor helps the operations team to evaluate the security impact of a change request before implementation. It determines if the change will expose any network vulnerabilities as well as at-risk systems that could act as launching points for attacks deeper into the network.
