An Intellyx Brain Candy Brief
Information about the supply chain composition of software and the many CVEs that may be touched off by underlying open source and vendor-contributed code and components has become more complex than the software itself.
Spektion approaches this problem from a different perspective by discovering distributed software endpoints and actively reviewing software behavior through runtime data collection, which helps enterprises zero in on high-risk vulnerabilities with less alert noise.
While supply chain composition, scanning, code linting, and SAST/DAST tools have their place in the SecOps tool chain, this production-led approach can even discover vulnerabilities caused by overprivileged and/or compromised users, machines, and third party services in production.
The startup just announced the GA of their new vulnerability management solution as they emerge from stealth with new funding.
