But, your university faces a unique set of growing security challenges. Attackers know that your institution has several thousands of students accessing your network from their laptops, phones and personal devices. This opens the door for cyber-criminals to easily compromise your sensitive data and leave your university vulnerable to a devastating breach. You have a current vulnerability management solution in place but feel overwhelmed with the amount of static and extraneous data being handed to you which then have to be parsed through and turned into actionable remediation steps.

So, you decide it's time to invest in a robust vulnerability management solution. It rapidly identifies any vulnerabilities on your network, uses advanced risk scoring to prioritize them for remediation or mitigation, and includes expert analysis and reporting with actionable data to assist you with implementation and remediation recommendations.

Now, you’re steps ahead of the bad guys with the ability to identify what needs to be fixed now and what can wait until later. Your team has the ability to move quicker than ever before and streamline their remediation efforts. You experience fewer false positives which saves you critical time, and you can immediately re-scan after you patch a vulnerability to ensure you effectively remediated the problem. Even with thousands of endpoints connected to your network, you have peace of mind knowing your vulnerability management solution works around the clock to detect your vulnerabilities in real time.

Organized cybercriminals are the most common threat actors- typically behind the ransomware headlines you see so often today.

Their techniques, tricks, and tools are constantly evolving to attempt to stay ahead of your defenses. They make money by stealing your data, tricking you into transferring money, stealing your login credentials, encrypting your data, and then extorting you for a ransom, or defrauding you. 

Cybercrime is a low-risk for criminals because they can hide their identities online and launder their ill-gotten gains using cryptocurrency. 

Their favorite attack is typically through phishing emails targeted to steal your credentials or get you to download a malicious attachment.  (body)
