Vulnerability assessment with AVM

Contrast Security combines the power of Application Detection and Response (ADR) with an optional Application Vulnerability Monitoring (AVM) add-on to address critical application security challenges.

Here is more in-depth information about this concept.

Benefits

The combination of ADR and AVM helps organizations to reduce risk by providing continuous visibility into attacks and vulnerabilities in production environments.  AVM goes beyond static code analysis, theoretical assessments, and simulated testing to pinpoint the weaknesses that actually pose the greatest risk in production environments.

Features

  • Continuous monitoring:  Real-time visibility into exploitable vulnerabilities

  • Risk insight:  Vulnerability awareness with severity

  • Attack context:  Connect vulnerabilities to attacks to guide triage prioritization

  • Security controls:  Implement ADR security controls to mitigate risk while remediation is in progress

  • Collaboration: Notify development team about real risk that is live in production to help prioritize remediation

  • Reports: AVM vulnerability reports let security teams help AppSec to prioritize remediation efforts and also respond to threats effectively.
