Overview

Cybersecurity risks are rapidly rising due to digitalization, cloudification, and remote work.

According to Gartner, by 2025, 60% of organizations may use cybersecurity risk as a primary determinant in conducting third-party transactions and business engagements. 

Enterprises are spending millions to protect their applications and IT assets from vulnerabilities that lead to malicious attacks. They are grappling with the lack of security controls, unmanaged software, inaccurate scans, remediation controls, and a growing backlog of vulnerabilities. 

According to a study by industry analyst ESG, 69% of organizations have experienced an attack targeting an unknown, unmanaged, or poorly managed internet-facing asset. The reason is that conventional vulnerability management services focus only on listing software bugs that might be exploited. So, what can enterprises do? They must monitor their attack surfaces accurately, continuously update asset inventories, and identify vulnerabilities that require patching to reduce risks and stay ahead of attackers.

Solution

Go beyond vulnerability management by curbing enterprise exposure to risks. 

With pre-built maturity assessment frameworks, industry-leading technology partners, and attack surface reduction services, TCS Enterprise Vulnerability Management Services enable enterprises to operationalize and manage next-gen preventive security programs.

How it helps:

• Vulnerability management and asset discovery services: Stay on top of all the moving parts of applications, networks, open-source codes, and cloud applications through automated vulnerability assessments, dynamic discovery and classification of assets, remediation governance, and actionable reporting for the management of digital assets. 

• Application security services: Cover automated tool-based scanning, manual checks, and triaging of vulnerabilities identified in applications in alignment with industry benchmarks. Integrate and automate the intersection of AppSec tools and the DevOps SDLC to detect and remediate vulnerabilities by managing security testing tool outcomes and building workflows for faster triaging and remediation.

• Smart remediation management services: Enrich and automatically unify vulnerability data through a smart remediation approach, identifying security gaps for development, infrastructure, cloud, and security teams by:

  • Precisely pinpointing vulnerabilities that pose a high risk to the organization.
  • Setting up streamlined and collaborative remediation processes.
  • Bringing in automation at every stage of vulnerability management to the greatest extent possible.

• Penetration testing services: Conduct an active, controlled attack on enterprises’ IT systems to identify security gaps and understand and address identified vulnerabilities. This involves penetration tests in the following areas:

  • External exposures
  • Web applications
    
  • Internal IT environments
    
  • Specific systems

• Security consulting services: Perform health checks to improve cyber maturity according to industry standards.
