The vertical navigation bar on the left side of your screen offers quick access to modules, keeping your workspace organized. You can hover over this bar to view or hide icon labels as needed.

Secondary Navigation Element

The secondary navigation bar displays options horizontally at the top for easy access, with active tabs highlighted in bold for clarity.

Refreshed Dashboards

We have improved our dashboards for better accessibility, color scheme, typography, and data interpretation.

These updates ensure easy information consumption for all users.

Platform Name Change Update

We are renaming the Qualys Cloud Platform to the Qualys Enterprise TruRisk™ Platform. This change highlights Qualys' commitment to empowering CISOs, cybersecurity professionals, and risk stakeholders to effectively measure and mitigate the impact of cyber risk on their organizations. 

The Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Platform is the only cybersecurity and risk management solution that enables you to measure, communicate, and eliminate cyber risk across the extended enterprise with precise remediation and mitigation actions. 

This update does not affect the platform’s functionality or features. The name change will be implemented across all product interfaces in phases starting January 2025.
