helping companies inventory software assets and identify and respond to software risk — today announced the launch of a new product, NetRise ZeroLens.
NetRise’s category redefining platform creates a software asset inventory, which is critical to manage organizational risk. NetRise uniquely analyzes compiled code to find risk in software that actually executes on devices and other systems. This technique, known as binary composition analysis (BCA), identifies vulnerabilities not found through traditional vulnerability scanners or source code scans, prioritizing those before they are exploited.
NetRise ZeroLens adds to the platform’s capabilities by analyzing the compiled code for weaknesses (CWEs) that have not yet been identified or exposed as vulnerabilities. NetRise ZeroLens incorporates AI to summarize the CWEs found and guides remediation based on the context of the code around the discovered weaknesses.
“By identifying weaknesses in code already running on devices that are critical to the enterprise, NetRise ZeroLens provides CISOs and their teams a path to rapid detection and mitigation before those weaknesses are exposed as vulnerabilities,” said Thomas Pace, NetRise CEO. “The cybersecurity market has been begging for proactive vulnerability identification instead of constantly operating in a reactive model. NetRise ZeroLens is proactive vulnerability identification at scale.”
