SecPod received the Entrepreneurial Company of the Year award

How SecPod became Global Vulnerability Management Winner?

What is the criteria of Frost and Sullivan choosing award winner?

Frost & Sullivan applies a rigorous analytical process to evaluate multiple nominees for each award category before determining the final award recipient. SecPod excelled in many criteria in Global Vulnerability Management. Here are a few of them:

Market Disruption
Competitive differentiation
Leadership Focus
Customer Experience and more

Why Frost and Sullivan think there is a need of unified tool?

According to the 2023 Frost & Sullivan Voice of the Enterprise Security Customer Survey, 30% of organizations are not confident that their security infrastructure can successfully prevent cyber-attacks. Small and medium enterprises are even less optimistic about their ability to prevent cyber-attacks, with 36% of organizations citing concern.

New vulnerabilities are created at an alarming pace. In 2022, the US National Vulnerability Database recorded a 24.6% YoY increase in the number of vulnerabilities reported. VM processes in organizations often take a siloed approach. A typical organization invests in three to five different VM tools from identifying vulnerabilities to remediating them which turns out to be complicated.

How did SecPod evolve to meet the need of Global Market?

SecPod’s SanerNow platform provides continuous scanning to discover vulnerabilities in real time. It acts as an end-to-end advanced vulnerability management platform starting from the identification of vulnerabilities and other security risks to remediating and generating reports all under one roof. It reinvents traditional vulnerability management with a broader approach to vulnerabilities, integrated remediation, rapid detection techniques, vast security intelligence, and end-to-end automation.

What today's IT teams needs in their tool?

Today’s IT teams prefer tools that are less complicated and provide them with comprehensive information.

SecPod SanerNow has 7 different products that come together to form a unified proposition:

SanerNow Asset Exposure: Asset exposure module to give continuous visibility into the IT environment.
SanerNow CPAM: Continuous Posture Anomaly Management to uncover outliers and anomalies and mitigate them.
SanerNow VM: Vulnerability Management to detect software vulnerabilities and prioritize them.
SanerNow CM: Compliance management to detect misconfigurations and mitigate them.
SanerNow RP: Prioritize risk of vulnerabilities based on CISA’s SSVC framework.
SanerNow PM: Patch Management to apply patches to risk exposures.

“SanerNow’s patch management capabilities stand out from the competition since it can patch all the discovered vulnerabilities and perform other system-hardening actions. Even if no direct remediation is available, SanerNow applies security controls that provide workarounds for the
vulnerabilities.”
