Operational challenges
Operational challenges in the context of vulnerability and patch management can be numerous and complex. These challenges often stem from the dynamic nature of IT environments, the sheer volume of vulnerabilities, and the need for efficient, scalable, and automated solutions. CSPM tools can be instrumental in addressing these challenges.
Let’s look at some common operational challenges and how CSPM tools can help:
- Asset discovery and inventory management: Maintaining an accurate inventory of assets, especially in large and dynamic cloud environments, can be difficult. Assets come and go as cloud resources scale.
CSPM solution: CSPM tools can continuously discover and inventory cloud assets. They provide visibility into VMs, containers, storage, and network configurations, helping organizations maintain an up-to-date asset inventory.
- Vulnerability scanning at scale: Traditional vulnerability scanners may struggle to scan many cloud assets...
