First move
Automate the pull from your Vulnerability scanner / patch tooling. Scan schedule, findings and remediation age straight from the scanner; patch compliance from the patch console.

- Periodic scanning enabled while real time scanning is off
- Real time scanning limited to downloads only
- Scan exclusions broad and unreviewed
