Enterprise Security Magazine presents to you, “Top 10 Vulnerability Management Solution Providers — 2021.”

Cyber threats and attacks are on the rise for industrial, manufacturing and critical infrastructure organizations. Many of these threats are the result of vulnerabilities present in the organization’s OT systems. Targeted threat actors or untargeted ransomware attacks can exploit these vulnerabilities to gain access into industrial networks for financial gain or to interrupt operations.

The rise of cyber threats are due to factors such as the acceleration of IIoT technology and digital transformation such as Industry 4.0 in manufacturing, an increase in remote work and remote access amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and the prevalence of ransomware.

A cybersecurity practice that has remained in the spotlight over the course of recent years is vulnerability management. For most enterprises and individuals, vulnerability management starts and ends at scanning tools- which is a dangerous approach that actually causes more harm than good. Usually, companies are firm in their belief that investing in an “industry-favorite” vulnerability scanner will effectively enable them to better assess, and manage the threats facing them, which could not be further away from the reality of the situation.

In the ever-evolving threat landscape of today, and the growing reliance of enterprises on cybersecurity tools- vulnerability management is no longer another “IT expense,” rather it is a crucial aspect of survival in the current digital landscape.
