What is Clarus?
Clarus delivers vulnerability management for our clients – managing the entire process from deployment, delivery of continuous scanning, through to the creation of actionable insights via our intuitive and easy to interpret vulnerability remediation tracker.
Our approach at Clarus adds the human element which is often found missing from today’s overly automated approach to vulnerability scanning. Our experts remove the complexity and ‘noise’ associated with automated vulnerability scanning and deliver actionable insights that enable organisations to undertake timely risk-based activity which has been shown to reduce the likelihood of a cybersecurity breach.
The Clarus Model
1. Deployment and Continuous Assessment
Weekly, monthly or quarterly; internal, external or both? It’s your call. We work with you to agree the most appropriate timing and location for the active scanning. What is important is to understand that every environment is unique and so should be your approach to vulnerability scanning.
We use a bespoke configuration profile to achieve the best results. By correctly tailoring the configuration of the scanning platform against the technology base within the environment, and through advanced configuration settings, the Clarus approach delivers a deeper level of assessment.
2. Intelligent Analysis
Human intelligence not artificial. By leveraging our attack-led knowledge, gained through extensive security testing and in response to real life cyber incidents, scan data is interrogated and the raw data critically assessed. We remove false-positives, eliminate noise (findings that have no risk impact or informational notes that add no value) and most importantly, re-categorise risk levels for individual findings based on real-world knowledge of how vulnerabilities are leveraged.
3. Remediation Tracking
Who needs a 300 page autogenerated report when what you need is actionable insights? Clarus provides a highly scalable, cloud-based remediation tracker. It is built on enterprise grade software that has been developed in response to the need to help organisations undertake timely risk-based remediation and is clearly shown to reduce the likelihood of a cybersecurity breach.
Within the Clarus portal, the detail of each vulnerability has been captured in an innovative and easy to interpret vulnerability remediation tracker. This is used to track vulnerabilities from discovery to remediation. Future scans are then used to validate successful remediation and identify exposure to new vulnerabilities.
