ABOUT THE VENDOR

About Qualys

Qualys delivers a cloud-native platform for security and compliance with a broad product suite. Its solutions discover assets, assess vulnerabilities, and manage risk across on-premise, cloud, and hybrid environments. The platform includes modules for vulnerability management, compliance, web application security, endpoint protection, and cloud workload security.

A U.S.
company

Qualys is a U.S.-based cyber security company, meaning data handling may be subject to U.S. regulations. This is an important consideration for organizations with strict data residency requirements.

Attack vector coverage

Qualys and Holm Security cover many of the same technical attack vectors such as systems/servers, endpoints, cloud environments, and web applications. However, Holm Security covers a wider set of attack vectors in a single unified platform, including areas that Qualys does not provide dedicated modules for, such as your human assets and deeper OT/SCADA assessment capabilities.

Vulnerability test coverage

Both platforms offer extensive vulnerability detection across operating systems, applications, network devices, and cloud environments, but do so in different ways. Qualys uses a detection system where all vulnerability signatures (QIDs) are created and updated internally by the Qualys research team. 

HOLM SECURITY
