The Business Value and Benefits of Vulnerability and Asset Management

Organizations' digital transformation initiatives have created complexity. There are simply too many devices and too many applications in an organization’s infrastructure to be able to a meaningful asset inventory, much less keep everything patched and up to date. Given that software vulnerabilities are one of the leading attack vectors for external breaches, it's clear that security teams must stop struggling with spreadsheets and homegrown vulnerability management tools. In this webinar, Forrester VP & Research Director Merritt Maxim will discuss the current state of vulnerability management and the common challenges organizations face managing vulnerabilities and assets at scale. This session will also highlight the value and benefits that security teams can realize from evolving their vulnerability management function into vulnerability risk management teams that can advise application, infrastructure, and business process owners how to best manage the risk of vulnerability exploitation and reduce overall cyber risks.
