Key objectives

This time Nanitor made a major upgrade to its versioning numbering. That is for a reason since we are now ready for the security health view across your organization and assets. We have made some touches to the health scoring that is based on feedback and information that we gather during the last couple of month since we started the implementation. That does not mean we are already finished but we are very happy with the achieved results. The health security score is a unique metric for Nanitor that will bring our customers a great metric to track the overall progress from security operations judge.

We listen to our customers. One frequent question that we always get is: where can I see the progress? Until now it has been hidden and not easy to find out. But now with the implementation of the progress dashboard you can see the needle moving (hopefully in the right direction though). We also know that resolving an issue is not always telling the whole story since it might affect from a couple up to hundreds or even thousands of devices. This is the reason why we implemented a new term issue violation. An issue violation is an issue detected on a single asset. Nanitor can visualize how many issues have been resolved on single assets. That shows much quicker the progress that has been made towards removing security threads from your IT infrastructure.

Make vulnerability management easier in an enjoyable and an effective way is the mission of Nanitor. Easier means often less confusion. Therefore we removed the term RISC rating which stands for the approach used by Nanitor to prioritize the work we were recommending to be done. We have swapped the term RISC rating (since it was more than once interpreted as risk rating) and use now instead prioritization score. The prioritization score is simpler, more commonly used in general and there is no need to make any exceptions in the cyber security space. A high and a low priority is what everyone understands immediately.

Nanitor has started to implement a new, far more comprehensive vulnerability feed. This enables the Nanitor agent to detect even more vulnerabilities in a more timely fashion. More does not always mean better and thanks to the EPSS score that Nanitor is taking into consideration, vulnerabilities stay there were they belong. You only need to take action on them when they are in the coloured area of the Nanitor diamond.

This version with all its implemented features and changes is a huge step to help organizations getting more protected against security threats and keep their operations running and data secure. Nanitor flags the right things that you should take action on.
