Qualys biedt inventory synchronization reaches ServiceNow service map CMDB | BI platform

Qualys, a provider of cloud-based security and compliance solutions, has developed an application that connects Qualys’ global IT asset inventory to the ServiceNow Service Graph and Configuration Management Database (CMDB) parts of the Service Graph Connector Program. Technology Partner Program.

Integration can help customers quickly and reliably load asset information into ServiceNow to achieve a consistent and integrated data set in a hybrid IT environment. This consistency ensures that IT, security, and compliance teams use the same asset information, which ultimately helps them answer the following questions: Which products are affected by vulnerabilities, who is responsible for managing these systems, and how to implement proactive security and risk strategies in the future?

ServiceNow Service Graph handles the entire technology stack from the infrastructure to the application layer. This includes ServiceNow’s CMDB, which is the repository for all information about infrastructure, relationship and configuration management. With Service Graph, IT organizations have a broad and in-depth data foundation that can manage the entire life cycle of digital products and services. In addition, it supports all ServiceNow products, allowing customers to combine technical components, people, and processes in a service-oriented overview. This connected approach enables customers to use their current CMDB investments to rationalize their investment portfolios, automate development, simplify cloud and security operations, manage risk and understand ROI, and thereby drive high-quality business results.

Qualys Cloud Platform with various data collection sensors (including Qualys Cloud Agent) will eventually compile and update a complete inventory of all IT assets in local, cloud and remote endpoints. It also integrates this data as part of Qualys’ innovative vulnerability management solution VMDR to automatically create a global asset list that is always up to date, identify unknown devices connected to the network, and dynamically create and maintain asset groups. , Identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in real time, and prioritize their remediation and mitigation measures. Essentially, it is a program that can help manage the asset lifecycle from discovery to recovery in a hybrid environment of local, cloud, container, and IoT/OT.
