Avoiding Security Breaches and Audit Failures with Qualys

Government agency Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) are challenged with budget constraints, staff shortages, confusing vendor claims, and frequent regulatory changes. Adopting an effective ZTA strategy to ensure compliance with numerous federal mandates and frameworks requires more than cobbling together a few security point solutions. The entire platform should be FedRAMP Ready or Authorized to Operate (ATO), preferably at the High Impact Level, which requires certification for all 421 controls specified in the NIST Special Publication 800-53 v5.

Qualys GovCloud is currently the only FedRAMP Ready status at the High impact level vulnerability and patch management platform that meets Executive Orders and NIST compliance comprehensively. Qualys GovCloud is a comprehensive offering that includes asset inventory with external attack surface visibility, vulnerability risk and remediation management, and policy compliance management that federal agencies require as the foundation for their cybersecurity programs.
