Hello Watchers!
At Centreon, we are constantly exploring new ways to make your IT operations smoother and more insightful. Today, we’re looking into a strategic topic and we’d love to get your thoughts: The convergence of Monitoring and Cybersecurity.
Since Centreon already monitors your assets (OS, web servers, databases, networking gear) and often knows their versions, we are considering an integration that crosses this data with real-time CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) databases.
The vision: A new security bulletin is released, and Centreon immediately flags the 15 servers in your infrastructure that are at risk—without you needing to trigger a manual scan.
Before we dive deeper into this feature, we want to hear about your current reality:
- How do you manage vulnerabilities today? Do you use dedicated tools or is it a more manual process?
- Are you satisfied with your current setup? Do you find these solutions too complex, too disconnected from your daily ops, or do they perfectly meet your needs?
- Does integration within Centreon make sense to you? Would having a “Security Health” status directly in your monitoring dashboards help you bridge the gap between Ops and Sec teams?
Our goal isn’t necessarily to replace a deep-dive vulnerability scanner, but to provide instant visibility and reactivity using the data Centreon already collects.
What’s your take? Is this a critical need or just a “nice to have” for your organization?
Looking forward to reading your feedback in the comments below!
