Malwarebytes Announces Free Vulnerability Assessment to Help IT Organizations Improve Security Posture Without Extra Costs

Malwarebytes

Malwarebytes, a global leader in real-time cyber protection, announced its comprehensive vulnerability assessment module is now included in every ThreatDown bundle at no additional cost via its integrated console. Many IT organizations are struggling with rising cybersecurity costs associated with annual vendor price increases and the necessity of adding more tools to protect against an ever-increasing attack surface. Malwarebytes, with its portfolio of award-winning ThreatDown solutions, is taking a different approach, helping customers reduce threats, security complexity and costs by providing a free vulnerability assessment.

With a reported 26% uptick in Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) over the last five years[1], teams without a dedicated Security Operations Center are struggling to stay on top of key preventative measures. ThreatDown bundles simplify complex security by combining prevention, detection and remediation technology with managed security services – in a scalable platform, with one agent and one console to protect people, devices and data.

“Many IT organizations are using disparate security products that are complex, expensive and don’t easily integrate, leaving them both overwhelmed and exposed to critical vulnerabilities,” said Marcin Kleczynski, Founder and CEO, Malwarebytes. “We’re focused on protecting our customers by making security as streamlined and easy as possible. We want all organizations to quickly understand the risks and severity of vulnerabilities in their environment, and be able to immediately take action to reduce their threat surface and prevent data breaches.”

“Organizations need to prioritize prevention and strengthen their security posture, so they are less of an exploitable target,” said Michael Suby, Research Vice President, Security & Trust, IDC. “At the same time, their budgets have limits. Spending on more prevention and posture-strengthening capabilities, whether as an additional module or another tool, may not be financially feasible. Malwarebytes eliminates this conflict between security best practices and cost by pairing vulnerability assessment with its Security Advisor dashboard for free.”
