Exploits now land around the day of disclosure and weekly scan windows cannot keep up. Himanshu Kathpal shows how Qualys InstaScan answers 'am I exposed?' within 60 minutes. Follow Qualys on BrightTALK for more Cyber Risk Series talks: https://www.brighttalk.com/channel/11673 Explore the Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Platform: https://www.qualys.com/etm Build your Risk Operations Center (ROC) today: https://www.qualys.com/roc In this closing Cyber Risk Series session, Himanshu Kathpal explains why the window between disclosure and exploitation has closed and what a modern exposure model needs: your exposure at the time of disclosure, within minutes, assessed continuously, with no new footprint. Qualys InstaScan, powered by the background Agent Insta, correlates each new vendor advisory against the inventory and telemetry Qualys already holds. Qualys reports detection within the first 60 minutes of disclosure, and under 30 minutes on the latest Patch Tuesday. He walks through the full workflow: hyper-prioritization using 25+ threat feeds and asset context, TruConfirm safe exploit validation (8 million validations in the past 12 months with no disruptions reported by customers), and zero-day remediation options including patching, mitigation, isolation, and uninstall. The live demo follows an Adobe ColdFusion vulnerability from detection on 15 assets within 32 minutes, to Agent Val confirming exploitability, to a mitigation and revalidation that drops the score from 10 to 7.8, all in under three hours.
