The Accenture Security Dynamic Vulnerability Risk Prioritization Application (the App) allows you proactively mitigate security risk and limit your organization’s threat exposure by staying ahead of software vulnerabilities and related exploits. To learn more about the Accenture iDefense Vulnerability Intelligence Service, click here.

The App imports Accenture Security iDefense Vulnerability Intelligence via REST API so that you can better manage vulnerability patch prioritization efforts. The App imports CVEs, CVSS scores, proprietary iDefense severity ratings, and iDefense vulnerability exploit intelligence. With this information your team will be able to properly evaluate which vendor applications need to be patched and in which order. This way you can help your vulnerability management teams stay ahead of exploitable threats and help mitigate cyber risk.

With the App, vulnerability management teams can:

• Prioritize patching efforts for your mission critical assets, using vulnerability severity and threat actor exploitability

• Reduce your attack surface by patching vulnerabilities that are currently being exploited by threat actors in the wild

• Take advantage of Accenture Security provided suggestions to mitigate risks for vulnerabilities without vendor patches

• Learn about 0-day vulnerabilities so that you can preemptively mitigate risks before exploits are developed

• Receive proactive alerts on software vulnerabilities

• Understand which threat groups are exploiting vulnerabilities and which malware they are using

• Prioritize remediation efforts with vulnerability severity scores and exploitability

• Understand 0-day vulnerabilities, how to mitigate them, and lower your exploit risk until the vendor patch is available

• Utilize rules to prioritize vulnerability remediation by environmental, lifecycle, vulnerability, and vulnerability impact factors
