Vulnerabilities are errors or weaknesses in a software program, network, application, or endpoint that enable an unauthorized user to access sensitive data, gain control, or deny access to authorized users.
At a high level, Frost & Sullivan defines VM as a platform that offers vulnerability assessments and provides assessment results that can trigger an appropriate remediation response.
VM has evolved since its late 1990s origins in network scanning. Initially, network scanners probed servers for vulnerabilities and identified vulnerable endpoints. Today, scan technology has expanded to survey all network-attached endpoints, cloud-based applications, servers, and connected devices.
In this study, Frost & Sullivan classifies 3 different VM product types – vulnerability assessment, vulnerability prioritization and remediation, and VM-as-a-service – focusing on market size, trends, and the global growth outlook. It also provides a deep-dive analysis of regions, including North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Central and Latin America.
