Arctic Wolf Managed Risk solution provides proactive vulnerability management services

Arctic Wolf Networks, a leading security operations center (SOC)-as-a-service company, announced the Arctic Wolf Managed Risk solution to provide proactive identification, analysis, and prevention of vulnerabilities.

“Companies know that they need to reduce their attack surface, but they often don’t know where to begin. Arctic Wolf Managed Risk service helps companies make sense of their cyber risk profile, by continuously scanning internal/external networks and endpoints, and quantifying cyber risk-based vulnerabilities,” said Brian NeSmith, CEO and co-founder of Arctic Wolf.

“This announcement augments our current offerings with comprehensive risk management to improve any customer’s overall cybersecurity posture.”

According to industry analyst Gartner, security and risk management leaders responsible for vulnerability management should implement a vulnerability management program that includes discovery, prioritization and then treatment. By 2022, organizations that use the risk-based vulnerability management method will suffer 80% fewer breaches.

Arctic Wolf Managed Risk solution continuously probes external and internal networks, and hosts for vulnerabilities, while providing other operational scans; including, discovery of connected devices, and testing industry specific security control benchmark tests.

The service continuously quantifies cyber risk across external facing and internal assets to reduce the attack surface of your IT organization.
