Prism offers a powerful feature called Automatic Dynamic Remediation, enabling users to automate the entire process of managing vulnerabilities. With this capability, users can trust Prism's tried and tested remediation feature to automatically address past issues that were not detected in their latest scan results. This automation empowers users to verify Prism's actions on a scan-by-scan basis and gain valuable project insights to track their team's progress over time.
You can enable Dynamic Remediation for Vulnerability Scanning within Prism to assist you when using scans to retest whether your remediation has been successful.
This feature compares the last scan in Prism with the latest scan you are importing, and highlights the differences, before dynamically remediating issues that are no longer present; you can select which issues to remediate or not. This is particularly useful for large digital estates.
Follow these steps to enable Dynamic Remediation:
Navigate to Projects on the Menu.
Select your Project from the list.
On the Edit Project screen, you have the following options available to you:
Enabled with human intervention
Enabled without human intervention
You can also disable the feature
Step 4: Click ‘Save Project’.
Enabled with human intervention
Once you close a subsequent scan, Prism will present you with a detailed comparison between the latest and previous scan. This comparison report highlights the differences between the scans and includes the following information:
Missing hosts
Additional missing ports or ports associated with the missing hosts
Issues that are potential candidates for automatic remediation based on the identified differences
After reviewing the comparison report, you have the following options:
Cancel: Choose this option to back out of the operation.
Complete Without Remediation: Close the scan without initiating any issue remediation steps.
Complete and Remediate: Selecting this option prompts Prism to mark the identified issues as remediated, aligning their status with past scans.
Enabled without human intervention
Prism provides Automatic Dynamic Remediation, a fully automated end-to-end vulnerability management solution. With this feature, users can configure Prism's Dynamic Remediation option to operate autonomously, providing efficient and reliable vulnerability resolution. This automated approach is particularly advantageous for organizations with large digital estates, simplifying the remediation process and enhancing overall security.
Benefits of Automatic Dynamic Remediation
Fully Automated Solution: Prism's Automatic Dynamic Remediation enables end-to-end vulnerability management without human intervention. Users can trust the system's robust remediation capabilities to address past issues and improve the security posture of their systems.
Flexibility and Control: Users have the flexibility to set Prism's existing Dynamic Remediation option to operate in a fully automated manner. This flexibility ensures efficient and reliable vulnerability resolution while giving users control over the automated process.
Simplified Remediation Process: By automating the remediation process, organizations can streamline vulnerability management. Automatic Dynamic Remediation identifies issues not detected in the latest scan results and automatically initiates the appropriate remediation actions.
Enhanced Security: Automating vulnerability resolution with Prism reduces response time and minimizes the risk of unaddressed vulnerabilities. This feature contributes to overall security enhancement and risk mitigation.
Monitoring and Insights
Scan-by-Scan Progress Tracking: Users can monitor the progress of vulnerability remediation on a scan-by-scan basis. Prism provides visibility into each scan's actions, allowing users to verify the remediation process and ensure vulnerabilities are effectively addressed.
Project Insights: Prism offers project-level insights to showcase the overall progress of vulnerability management. These insights enable users to track their team's advancements and assess the effectiveness of their vulnerability remediation efforts over time.
Dynamic Remediation Tracking Metrics
Prism enhances Dynamic Remediation tracking with additional metrics available within the Dynamic Remediation tab at both the scan and project levels. These metrics provide valuable information to measure the effectiveness of remediation actions and identify areas for further improvement.
Prism's Automatic Dynamic Remediation feature empowers organizations to achieve comprehensive vulnerability management effortlessly. By leveraging automated remediation capabilities, users can efficiently address past issues, improve security, and confidently protect their digital assets.
