Cisco has completed the acquisition of Kenna Security, announced Cisco last week.

With the addition of Kenna Security’s industry-leading risk-based vulnerability management platform, Cisco customers will solve critical security posture challenges by working cross-functionally to rapidly automate prediction, identification, prioritization and remediation of cybersecurity threats.

 

Adding Kenna’s vulnerability management platform to Cisco’s SecureX platform’s market leading detection and response capabilities (XDR) will give customers the ability to discover and prioritize an organization’s assets with a centralized, contextual view. This will speed decision making, accelerate and simplify response with orchestration and reduce friction associated with compliance efforts. Kenna’s technology integrates with all major industry vulnerability assessment platforms.

Jeetu Patel, EVP and GM, Cisco Security and Collaboration
Combined with SecureX, Kenna Security will weave threat management and risk-based vulnerability management together to further extend our lead in providing the broadest XDR capabilities in the industry – truly transforming how teams effectively manage the overall risk for an organization.

Karim Toubba, Kenna Security CEO
Every security team wants to work more efficiently, and every leader needs the data to support critical decisions about risk. Kenna Security's sophisticated, data-driven platform combined with Cisco's breadth and scale will help our customers continue to do both.
