The collaboration will allow customers to reduce the risk of cyber attacks, ensuring an autonomous solution capable of enhancing their IT hygiene
Ivanti Inc., provider of the Neurons automation platform that discovers, manages, protects and supports IT assets from the cloud to the edge, and SentinelOne (NYSE: S), a provider of a cybersecurity platform with autonomous response capabilities, have partnered to help organizations adopt a comprehensive, risk-focused approach to patch management and strengthen cybersecurity against cyber threats, including ransomware attacks. Ivanti and SentinelOne will integrate their best-in-class technologies – Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management and SentinelOne's Singularity XDR platform – to deliver vulnerability assessment, prioritization and remediation, at machine speed.
Today, patch management remains a major challenge for many organizations. Security and IT teams often face challenges with vulnerability detection and software updates, fragmented processes, multiple technology stacks, and heterogeneous teams. According to a recent investigation At Ivanti, 71% of IT and security professionals find patching complex and time-consuming while 53% say organizing and prioritizing critical vulnerabilities are the most time-consuming activities. As a result, many IT teams simply patch new or disclosed vulnerabilities in the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), without considering that in this way no more than 20% of vulnerabilities are included known, creating gaps in corporate security.
Legacy vulnerability management processes inevitably expose organizations to a greater risk of cyberattacks. Today, the main vectors exploited by hackers are unpatched vulnerabilities to applications and operating systems. Specifically, the Ransomware Index Report Q1 2022 di Ivanti revealed how sophisticated ransomware groups were able to exploit vulnerabilities within eight days of each patch being released by individual vendors. Therefore, every vulnerability is a race against time between the company that must protect all assets, and the threat actors trying to breach any sensitive targets.
The partnership will help overcome these issues by supporting organizations in protecting endpoints, improving cyber hygiene, reducing attack surfaces and identifying vulnerabilities, remediating critical issues with just one click. Ivanti and SentinelOne's integrated solution will provide security and IT teams with contextual and dynamic information about potential exposures to actively exploited vulnerabilities, allowing them to respond in a timely manner. Together, the two vendors will help companies reduce the average time to research, detect, respond and remediate cyber threats, with a focus on critical or ransomware-related vulnerabilities.
“We are excited to partner with SentinelOne to enable organizations to enhance their cyber hygiene,” he said Nayaky Nayyar, President e Chief Products Ofterer the Evanty. "Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management, powered by artificial intelligence, can identify potential risks and active threats, promptly report exploited vulnerabilities, predict attacks and prioritize remediation activities. Additionally, we offer agent-based and agent-less patching and support for a catalog of more than 350 enterprise applications. These advanced capabilities optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of security and IT teams in evaluating and implementing patches and combating vulnerabilities exploited by hackers."
“At a time when the sophistication and volume of cyber attacks is growing, autonomous vulnerability response capabilities are indispensable,” he added Nicholas Warner, President, Security di SentinelOne. "Singularity
“This partnership is a great example of how Ivanti collaborates with world-class cybersecurity Independent Software Vendors (SIVs) to offer Patch Management solutions to its customers,” commented Mark Stevens, Senior Vice President e General Manager, Strategic Alliances di Ivanti. The agreement confirms the robust offering of endpoint security solutions that we guarantee to ISVs to improve their technologies, using our APIs and SDKs for patch management, remote discovery and control of applications and devices.”
