Modern AppSec is broken. It spans large application estates across fragmented APIs, multi-cloud environments, and shadow web apps that create dangerous blind spots. Join our latest webinar to learn how to move from reactive scanning to continuous, risk-driven management. What we cover: > Expanding attack surface visibility across web apps and APIs > Reducing scan times using AI powered optimization > Hardening authenticated scanning for modern OAuth2 patterns > Prioritizing high impact issues using TruRisk Watch the webinar ON DEMAND: https://lnkd.in/g45nBEbF #AppSec #CyberSecurity #CloudSecurity #qualys

The Qualys Threat Research Unit recently released our report, The Broken Physics of Remediation, where we analyzed 1B+ CISA KEV remediation records across 10,000 organizations over 4 years.     Here’s what was uncovered:   ✅ Closed critical vulnerability volume is up 6.5x, yet critical vulnerabilities open at Day 7 got worse    ✅ Organizational attack surfaces have expanded faster than teams can absorb   ✅ Time-to-Exploit is now negative—vulnerabilities are weaponized before patches exist     The path forward is a Risk Operations Center that turns risk insights into automated remediation.    Read through our insights and download the report: https://lnkd.in/gNZGGbaY  #RiskOperationsCenter #CyberSecurity  

Exploitable vulnerabilities are being weaponized faster than organizations can patch them. Decisions that were right several years ago can hurt an organization today. In “Root Cause: Why Exploitable Vulnerabilities Still Ship in 2026 and What Secure by Design Means for the Industry,” Bob Lord shares what needs to be done to prevent persistent vulnerabilities and threat actors from plaguing heavily regulated industries left and right. Learn about his philosophy, “Secure by Design” and why it should be a customer right rather than a luxury.

Qualys VMDR and TotalCloud are now available on the Oracle Cloud Marketplace to simplify security for OCI customers. This integration allows organizations to use existing OCI committed spend for faster deployment and unified risk-based visibility.

Qualys President & CEO, Sumedh Thakar, opened #ROCon26 EMEA with a hard truth: Cyber risk is now a race against time. Most organizations are already falling behind in remediating CISA KEVs as vulnerabilities have surged 6.5x over the last 4 years, while time to exploit has shrunk from 63 days to -7 days. Frontier AI models like Anthropic’s Mythos are going to make this exponentially worse. We must move from MTTR as a measurement metric to tracking: -Window of Weaponization (WOW) – how fast attackers move -Average Window of Exposure (AWE) – how long we stay exposed And, while we can’t control WOW, we can control AWE with a system that allows the speed to remediation to match the speed of detection. To do this we need: ➡️ Hyper Prioritization – focusing on what’s actually exploitable ➡️ Operational Resilience - building confidence in remediation at scale ➡️ Agentic AI -to validate and execute faster That’s how you reduce risk in an AI-driven threat landscape and why the future is autonomous remediation. #qualys #ROConEMEA #London #cybersecurity

London is ready, and the Qualys team is on the ground at the Hilton Park Lane for ROCon26 EMEA. We are looking forward to two days of innovation, strategy, and community building as we change the future of cyber risk management. If you have not secured your pass yet, this is your final opportunity to join us. https://lnkd.in/dh6bKzGy See you at 8:30 AM for registration and coffee. #ROCon26 #RiskOps #CyberSecurity #LondonEvents

The average Time-to-Exploit (TTE) has collapsed to -7 Days, meaning vulnerabilities are exploited in the wild before a patch is released or even disclosed. Security teams know they must act fast to beat threat actors. Only 1% of security vulnerabilities are remotely exploitable and actively weaponized in the wild. This sub-1% reality has remained remarkably consistent even as total disclosure volume has nearly doubled. In “Turning Vulnerability Intelligence into Measurable Risk Reduction,” Qualys’ Saeed Abbasi and VulnCheck's Patrick Garrity 👾🛹💙 discuss the current landscape of Vulnerability and Risk Management, the priorities in patching, and the importance of research and actionable insights to inform security teams.
