Microsoft’s Threat & Vulnerability Management now helps thousands of customers to discover in real time

I’m excited to announce that Microsoft’s Threat & Vulnerability Management option would be generally like of June 30! We've been working carefully with customers for over a year to include their real needs and feedback to higher address vulnerability management. Our goal would be to empower defenders using the tools they have to better safeguard against evolving threats, so we believe this solution can help provide that additional visibility and agility they require.

Threat & Vulnerability Management (TVM) is really a built-in capacity in Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP) that utilizes a danger-based method of uncover, prioritize, and remediate endpoint vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. With Microsoft Defender ATP’s Threat & Vulnerability Management, customers take advantage of:

• Continuous discovery of vulnerabilities and misconfigurations
• Prioritization according to business context and dynamic threat landscape
• Correlation of vulnerabilities with endpoint recognition and response (EDR) alerts to reveal breach insights
• Machine-level vulnerability context during incident investigations
• Built-in removal processes through unique integration with Microsoft Intune and Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager

Traditional vulnerability checking only happens periodically, departing organizations with security blind spots between scans. The main one-size-fits-all approach these traditional solutions use ignores critical business-specific context, along with the dynamic threat landscape. This really is along with the truth that minimization of vulnerabilities is really a manual process, frequently across teams, which takes days, days, or several weeks to accomplish. This leaves a window of chance for attackers and puts our defenders inside a tough place.

To deal with these challenges Microsoft partnered having a dozen enterprise customers around the design and development of this latest Threat & Vulnerability Management solution. One of these is Telit, a worldwide leader in IoT enablement offering finish-to-finish IoT solutions, including enterprise-grade hardware, connectivity, platform, and talking to services. Telit already were built with a well-defined vulnerability management enter in place, but stated these were missing several critical abilities, including visibility, prioritization, and removal.

Our design partners play a vital role through the entire process, from planning and building to operationalizing and maturing the merchandise therefore we delivers the very best experience. A number of our customers have existing vulnerability management programs, therefore we understood that to possess them change to Microsoft we'd require a disruptive method of vulnerability management. From private preview to general availability and beyond, our key goals would bridge the space between Security also it roles in threat protection, to lessen time for you to threat resolution while enabling real-time prioritization and risk reduction in line with the evolving threat landscape and business context. They is constantly on the incorporate feedback from customers and partners, adding these new abilities monthly.

Working with Telit, we rapidly understood the current prioritization norm isn't enough to correctly reduce risk within an organization. We conferred with our partners on the new risk-based approach, which is centered on continuous discovery of vulnerabilities and misconfigurations and correlated individuals insights with context specific for their business and also the dynamic threat landscape.

Microsoft’s built-in, finish-to-finish removal process helps Telit bridge the space between their security and processes teams. The initial integration with Microsoft Intune enables their security team to produce removal demands having a mouse click, and also the operations team receives the demands instantly with all of relevant information and may start the removal process immediately. The safety team may then watch their exposure score drop instantly as removal progresses.
