Industry and regulatory risk
Prepare for regulatory risk and be audit-ready
With growing IT security regulations, external threats and vendor software audits, organizations can’t afford to be complacent in governing IT assets. Proactively ensure compliance by maintaining comprehensive records of software purchases, licenses, usage and timely lifecycle management, such as patching critical vulnerabilities. Flexera provides up-to-date data so you can demonstrate compliance and avoid legal or financial penalties.

Complex regulatory landscape
Get ahead of regulations
Regulatory compliance can seem overwhelming considering the number of standards organizations must meet and the costly penalties for not doing so. From protecting consumer investments and data to establishing security guidelines and preventing or mitigating risk, compliance can seem impossible. Flexera helps you comply with the requirements that identify and reduce security vulnerability risk. Discover devices that may be vulnerable, categorize them based on severity, and gain insights on how to secure your environment.
Growing cybersecurity risks
Apply timely software patches
Cybersecurity events range from data breaches exposing millions of sensitive records to sophisticated ransomware attacks that cripple critical infrastructure. Threat actors now have the tools to expose zero-day vulnerabilities within hours. Stay ahead of attackers by identifying, prioritizing and publishing patches to keep your environments secure with Flexera’s best-in-class software advisories from Secunia Research and software vulnerability management tools.
Simplify complex regulatory challenges
Discover and manage your risks
Industry regulation can present complex challenges for IT professionals with requirements that vary across banking, healthcare, education, high-tech and beyond. Understanding which assets are approaching EOL and how that can affect you based on your specific industry regulation is essential.
Remediate software vulnerabilities
Identify and prioritize your risk
Identify which vulnerable applications are in use, where they reside, and their attack vectors. Flexera helps you protect your organization by leveraging Secunia Research data to give you the best starting point for seeing your IT risks. Once these risks are identified, Flexera can provide you with robust, contextual data around those risks (including EOL/EOS, department, location, and more) which allows you to prioritize remediation.

Frequently asked questions
EOS stands for end-of-support and is the date an asset will no longer receive software patches, updates, or fixes. This is incredibly important because exploits in the software will be newly discovered and unpatched, leaving an intrusion point for nefarious actors to access organizations' confidential systems. Flexera will help you quickly discover these EOS assets so you can plan the required updates.
Because EOS software and devices are excellent intrusion points for cybercriminals, regulatory agencies will mandate that newer versions be adopted for organizations to be compliant. If you’re in a regulated field such as financial services, healthcare or education, you may find that utilizing EOS assets will make you noncompliant and you may incur a regulatory audit or worse, a security incident. Avoid this tenuous situation by leveraging Flexera for your software vulnerability management needs.
