Vulnerability Response

The ServiceNow® Vulnerability Response application imports and automatically groups vulnerable items according to rules that permit you to remediate vulnerabilities quickly. Vulnerability data is pulled from external sources, such as the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) and third-party integrations, and processed with applications developed by ServiceNow®. Vulnerability Response is one member of the Security Operations application suite. Together these applications connect security to your IT department, increase the speed and efficiency of your response, and give you a definitive view of your security posture. 

Vulnerability Response Vulnerability Response
