Most of the big networking headaches didn’t turn up overnight; they started small and increased in complexity over time, as the network grew and evolved. Without detailed actionable data, these problems can be nearly impossible to solve; at the very least it can take weeks, months, or even years to rid a global network of a pervasive issue.
Security teams rely on vulnerability scanners to proactively locate vulnerabilities in network devices, hosts, and applications. These tools help improve the overall security posture of the network by remediating exposure before bad actors have an opportunity to exploit it. Although incredibly helpful, the data delivered by these tools is often overwhelming and not presented in an actionable manner.
