Qualys, Inc. delivers a cloud-native cyber risk and compliance platform that helps organizations measure, manage, and reduce risk across hybrid environments. Its Enterprise TruRisk Platform brings together asset visibility, risk prioritization, and remediation workflows so security, IT, and compliance teams can work from a shared operating layer across on-premises systems, endpoints, public and private clouds, containers, mobile devices, and web applications.
Built as a SaaS platform with integrated applications, Qualys, Inc. supports vulnerability management, attack surface coverage, cloud security, threat detection, remediation, and audit readiness. It also aggregates signals from Qualys and non-Qualys technologies, giving customers a business-context view of exposure and a practical path from discovery and validation through remediation and risk reduction.
Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations
Qualys, Inc. packages its offerings through integrated cloud applications supported by a single lightweight Cloud Agent, virtual scanners, passive sensing, and cloud connectors. This architecture enables continuous discovery, assessment, prioritization, and response across managed and unmanaged assets, external-facing systems, workloads, containers, identities, and SaaS environments.
Beyond native capabilities, Qualys, Inc. extends into existing enterprise processes through APIs and a broad connector ecosystem spanning CMDB, ITSM, ticketing, SIEM, and DevSecOps workflows. It supports native integrations with AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and also offers a private cloud deployment option for organizations with stricter data-control or sovereignty requirements.
