Vulnerability management

Name: Protoxol Vulnerability management
Brand: Protoxol
Availability: PreOrder

Exposure-aware prioritization. Focus on what's exploitable.

Overview

What VM does.

Vulnerability Management blends authenticated and agent-based scanning with continuous exposure analysis. The score on every finding is not raw CVSS — it's `exposure × exploitability × blast radius`, computed from your Asset Inventory, threat intel and the asset's actual network reachability. Internet-facing exploitable bugs land at the top of the queue. The 50-page report is optional.

Features

Inside VM.

Exposure-aware scoring

Real risk: exposure × exploitability × blast radius. Not raw CVSS theatre.

Continuous scanning

Agent-based + authenticated network scans. Finds gaps weekly scans miss.

Patch prioritization

Top of queue = exploitable today, on assets that matter. Auto-promoted.

Ticket integration

Bidirectional sync to Jira, ServiceNow. Findings close when patches deploy.

SBOM analysis

Track third-party library risk via SBOM. Alert on new advisories in active components.

Use cases

Where VM earns its keep.

Internet-facing risk

Always-current view of exploitable bugs on your perimeter assets.

Privileged asset hardening

Domain controllers, jump hosts, secrets stores — prioritized first.

Audit & compliance

Evidence trail for PCI, ISO 27001, SOC 2 vuln management requirements.

Technical specs

VM under the hood.

Scan modes	Agent, authenticated, unauthenticated
CVE coverage	210k+ CVEs with exploit metadata
Refresh rate	Continuous agent + daily network
Asset depth	OS, packages, services, configs

The landscape

Where the market stands today.

Most VM tools produce 50-page reports nobody reads. The signal-to-noise problem is solved by exposure-aware scoring — what's exploitable today, on assets that matter. Protoxol VM ties CVE severity to real risk via shared inventory.

Vendor	Strength	Tradeoff
Tenable Nessus/Tenable.io	Comprehensive scan coverage. Mature.	Heavy reports. Risk scoring still CVSS-anchored.
Qualys VMDR	Cloud-native. Strong asset inventory.	Pricing opaque. Console outdated in places.
Rapid7 InsightVM	Attack-surface focus. Good reporting.	Standalone — context to EDR/SIEM requires glue.

Our offering

Protoxol VM — built differently.

Risk score = exposure × exploitability × blast radius. Not raw CVSS.
Asset context comes from the same Inventory module — owner and tier-aware.
Internet-facing and privileged-asset findings auto-promoted to top of queue.
Ticketing handoff to Jira, ServiceNow or your tool — bidirectional sync.
Detection rules can alert on actively-exploited CVEs from threat intel.

Exploitability first

Real risk, not CVSS theatre.

Shared inventory

Same asset model as EDR and Asset Inventory.

Actionable queues

Ranked by what actually matters — internet, privileged, exposed.
