One of the most dangerous and most commonly used attack vectors by cybercriminals are unpatched vulnerabilities. The innovative vulnerability and patch management from the IT security manufacturer ESET helps SMEs to identify and fix them.
This solution supports organizations in reliably detecting and eliminating security gaps in their systems. If the software has identified vulnerabilities in operating systems or common applications, administrators can have the required patches installed automatically or act manually. The guidelines supplied simplify the work of those responsible and can be individually adapted. Numerous filter options allow vulnerabilities to be prioritized according to their severity. ESET Vulnerability & Patch Management is part of the business bundles ESET PROTECT Complete, ESET PROTECT MDR and the new addition to the bundle portfolio ESET PROTECT Elite.
Detect 35.000 vulnerabilities automatically
The solution scans thousands of common applications such as Adobe Acrobat, Mozilla Firefox or Zoom for over 35.000 security vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs). These automatic checks can be flexibly configured in the settings and also allow exception rules. Weak points can be filtered and prioritized according to the degree of danger and the time course. For example, organizations can use the ESET PROTECT cloud-based console to generate reports on the most vulnerable applications and affected devices. It offers multilingual support and has low IT infrastructure requirements.
Management from the ESET PROTECT Console
With centralized management from the ESET PROTECT Cloud Console, organizations can easily assess vulnerabilities and manage patches across the network to ensure timely detection and remediation of the latest zero-day vulnerabilities. Automated scans and a wide range of filtering options enable organizations to quickly identify and prioritize the security issues most critical to them.
In addition, with automatic and manual patching options, companies can ensure that their endpoints are provided with the latest security patches in a timely manner. In addition, the entire process can be further simplified by prioritizing critical resources and allowing the remaining operations to be scheduled outside of business hours to avoid disruption to day-to-day work.
Organizations can also take advantage of multi-tenant vulnerability and patch management to gain full visibility into their network while still focusing on specific areas.
Reliable and safe
“Managing patches and updates in their network is an immense challenge for small and medium-sized businesses. This often leaves their endpoints vulnerable to cyber attacks. It's also difficult to identify and prioritize vulnerabilities,” says Michal Jankech, Vice President of ESET's SMB and MSP segment. “SMEs want an easy-to-use solution that also offers reliable security. The customizable policies in ESET's Vulnerability & Patch Management give organizations of all sizes the flexibility and control to patch their endpoints optimally and in a timely manner. This minimizes the risk of attacks and guarantees compliance with the increasingly stringent requirements – both from cybersecurity insurance companies or regulations and from various standards for ISO certifications.”
