IT Security and Compliance Delivered as a Service

Qualys' on demand approach to IT security and compliance enables organizations of all sizes to successfully achieve both vulnerability management and policy compliance initiatives cohesively, while reducing costs and streamlining operations. Using an innovative Software as a Service (SaaS) approach, the QualysGuard® Security and Compliance Suite combines Qualys' industry leading vulnerability management service with a comprehensive IT compliance solution.

Integrated View of IT Security and Compliance

Understanding your overall security posture—and doing so in relation to compliance requirements—has historically been time consuming, costly to implement, difficult to manage, and limited in terms of cross-functional information use.

The QualysGuard Security and Compliance Suite eliminates network auditing and compliance inefficiencies by leveraging your organization's core IT security information. In one consolidated suite, groups with different responsibilities can utilize similar information for their specific needs.

The QualysGuard Security and Compliance Suite automates the process of vulnerability management and policy compliance across the enterprise, providing network discovery and mapping, asset prioritization, vulnerability assessment reporting and remediation tracking according to business risk. Policy compliance features allow security managers to audit, enforce and document compliance with internal security policies and external regulations.

QualysGuard Vulnerability Management
Globally Deployable, Scalable Security Risk and Vulnerability Management
