Qualys Vulnerability Management Detection Response (VMDR) Platform Streamlines the Detection and Patching of Vulnerabilities, from the Endpoint to the Datacenter

Ivanti, the company that automates IT and Security Operations to discover, manage, secure and service from cloud to edge, and Qualys, Inc., a pioneer and leading provider of disruptive cloud-based IT, security and compliance solutions, announced an expanded partnership. The partnership provides for the integration of Ivanti Patch Management technology within the Qualys VMDR (Vulnerability Management Detection Response) platform.

The Ivanti and Qualys partnership provides for tight integration of Ivanti Patch Management into Qualys VMDR to automate and simplify the patch remediation process. As a result, customers will be able to quickly detect vulnerabilities, from endpoint to datacenter, and automatically deploy expertly pre-tested Mac patches across dozens of third-party applications. Current Microsoft patch coverage includes both security and non-security content for all supported products, operating systems, and applications, including Microsoft Office. The Ivanti patch catalog is one of the industry’s most comprehensive catalogs currently securing over 180 million endpoints globally.
