The Qualys Cloud Platform (formerly Qualysguard), from San Francisco-based Qualys, is network security and vulnerability management software featuring app scanning and security, network device mapping and detection, vulnerability prioritization schedule and remediation, and other features to provide vulnerability management and network attack surface reduction.https://media.trustradius.com/product-logos/1N/CX/TQWNNZZX56H0.jpegQualysQualysguard to improve the quality of your security posture2017-08-25T15:56:40.917ZWe used the Qualys API and python to create rolling scheduled scans of every 2 weeks for every network for our organization. We first focused on critical and high vulnerabilities with direction to remediate or remove the system within 30 days. We saw a drastic reduction in number of attacks and compromises for systems across the enterprise.,API Task scheduling and configuration
Threat database updates through authenticated scanning of Windows and Unix operating systems
Reporting capabilities,The API query can only support limited number of connections in a time period without calling support to request more, I would suggest removing that limitation.,8,ROI was noticed with reduction of compromises which required server downtime and incident response.,Nessus, OpenVAS and Nmap,Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewalls - PA Series, Palo Alto Networks Threat Protection, Palo Alto PanoramaAlex Waitkus, CISSP-ISSAP, OSCPThe better vulnerability management tool2016-07-29T13:40:05.520ZWe used Qualysguard to automate testing of our environment for vulnerabilities. We used several groups to run the testing some with longer and more extensive tests. Mostly this was done in two phases, once before a resource was deployed for use and then several times after over duration to ensure any vulnerabilities were caught.,User setup for multiple groups
Ease of automation, set it and forget it
Reporting features were a huge plus,Took time to learn the UI
Could be cumbersome for first time users
Not much online documentation that was useful,9,I was not involved in the purchase but the personal ROI really helped make my job quicker and more efficient.,Nessus, NMap and Metasploit,Nmap, MetasploitAlan Matson, CCNA:S, MCPQualysguard for Asset Discovery and Verification of Patching/Secure Config2016-01-22T19:03:01.441ZAt my current organization, Qualysguard is primarily used for discovery of assets and verification of secure configuration/patching by our security team. Our team is also assessing Qualysguard WAS to build into our secure development practices.At my previous organization, we provided self-service capability for our engineers designing/building our products to perform their own infrastructure scans to identify security configuration flaws as early in the build process as possible. We also used Qualysguard for discovery of assets and verification of secure configuration/patching.In both organizations, Qualysguard has added a ton of value.,Discovery of assets on a network.
Identifying infrastructure security configuration flaws for a number of different OS types.
Easy UI to navigate.,Easier way for VM scan custom profile management. A way to determine if there are duplicate scan profiles created to reduce redundancy with multiple administrators.
This may have been addressed, but my previous organization had a lot of difficulties integrating Qualysguard with RSAM.
Add trending over time capabilities to dashboard.,8,Provides the business the information needed to prioritize security requirements and secure appropriate budget.
Provides self-service capabilities for users to perform their own scans.
Provides visibility for asset discovery which was previously a difficult task.,Nessus and eEye,RSA Archer, Veracode, Burp SuiteVerified User
