NorthStar.io Enhances Product Offering with Vulnerability Exploit Prediction Engine
Summary
With the addition of the Prediction Engine, NorthStar Navigator is first to provide security and IT operations teams a definitive assessment on whether a CVE will eventually be exploited in the wild. NorthStar Navigator’s vulnerability Prediction Engine is a yes/no categorical assessment that accurately predicted, approximately 1 year ahead on average, over 43% of the CVEs marked as "exploited in the wild" (EIW) by one of the security industries leading sources for EIW data. “The accuracy of NorthStar Navigator’s prediction technology provides the advanced warning that remediation teams need, giving them significantly more time to act,” said Alex Moss, CEO, NorthStar.io. The Prediction Engine capability has been added to the existing NorthStar Navigator vulnerability prioritization platform and may also be purchased separately as a data feed. The prediction feature highlights the company’s focus on expanding its product functionality and growing the iconic NorthStar brand by truly encapsulating risk for efficient end-to-end vulnerability remediation campaigns contextualized to the risk appetite of their business.
