Meet Remediation Hub, Your New Home for Exposure Prioritization and Remediation
Remediation Hub is a new feature available in our Command Platform that provides a prioritized list of remediations your team can take that would have the largest impact on reducing your overall risk posture.
As cyber vulnerabilities grow exponentially, the need to manage them intelligently has never been more urgent. Remediation Hub will provide you with a list of recommended remediations that are prioritized based on our Threat Aware Active Risk Score. Each remediation shows the vulnerabilities that will be resolved, enabling bulk vulnerability removal and guiding your teams to work where they can have the most impact by taking a remediation-first approach.
