What is Qualys CSAM

CyberSecurity Asset Management (CSAM) is a cloud service that allows you to continuously discover, classify, remediate, and measurably improve your organization's cybersecurity posture for internal and external IT assets. Using a combination of Qualys sensors, Cloud Agents, Scanners, and Passive Network Sensors, CSAM collects and analyzes data about assets across hybrid environments.

CSAM delivers up-to-date, comprehensive, and continuous information about your assets and their security and compliance posture. It aggregates and correlates asset data from every source into a single deduplicated profile, enriches it with business context such as owner and criticality, and lets you define alerts and generate reports so you can report on and respond to risk quickly.
