Vulnerability Management

Breeze Agent enables Cloudaware Vulnerability Management. Use Breeze to maintain Nessus agent health, support scan coverage, and keep software inventories accurate across target hosts.

What Breeze Contributes

  • Installs Nessus agents, enabling Cloudaware Vulnerability Scanning (VSaaS).
  • Discovers OS versions, installed Linux packages, and Windows programs for use in vulnerability correlation.

Scan Coverage and Gap Analysis

With Breeze data in CMDB, Cloudaware can:

  • Identify assets with no vulnerability scanning agent installed or with unhealthy or outdated agent status.
  • Highlight mismatches between vulnerability scanning coverage and actual infrastructure, such as servers missing from scanning scopes.
  • Correlate vulnerability findings to CMDB objects and applications for faster triage and remediation.

For broader approach as part of Vulnerability Management, use:

Combined with scan findings and CMDB context, Cloudaware shows which assets are:

  • Covered and healthy
  • Missing agents or scans
  • Out of policy based on risk and patch SLAs
