Nucleus Security has been successful in addressing a variety of business problems for its users. One common issue has been the challenge of prioritizing remediation activities across various assets and vulnerabilities identified by different sources. The software's dashboard provides an out-of-the-box filter that generates reports to help users identify high, medium, and low vulnerabilities. This feature helps with workload prioritization, increasing efficiency by reducing time spent on lower-risk issues.
Another problem commonly solved is the consolidation of multiple sources of vulnerability data into one source of truth. The software allows users to ingest new data into their projects and identify assets that need cleaning up in their own tools. Automated scanning, analysis, and reporting of vulnerabilities have also resulted in time-saving benefits. Additionally, rules automation helps get the right vulnerabilities in front of engineers to be addressed rapidly. Nucleus Security addresses compliance issues related to cloud and on-prem infrastructure, helps track remediation within SLAs and shows vulnerabilities in a way that users can remediate quickly. Thus, the key use cases for Nucleus Security include scalable vulnerability management, automated triage and coordination for prioritizing vulnerabilities using business context and exploit threat intel, and consolidation of security issues from various sources.
