Sevco's Advantages Over Kenna
Beyond Vulnerability Management
Kenna’s sole focus is vulnerability prioritization. Sevco provides complete exposure management, including visibility of missing controls, security gaps, and misconfigurations that Kenna can’t see.
Comprehensive Exposure View
See vulnerabilities, missing security controls, unmanaged assets, EOL systems, and compliance gaps—all in one platform. Move beyond CVE scores to determine true risk.
True Asset Intelligence
Unlike Kenna's scanner-dependent approach, Sevco provides comprehensive, real-time asset intelligence from 1000+ sources for complete visibility across your entire environment.
Actionable Intelligence
Move beyond abstract risk scores to understand exactly what to fix, why it matters, and how to remediate effectively. Sevco provides business context that Kenna doesn’t.
Real-Time Data Collection
Sevco continuously collects and correlates asset data in real-time, not simply when scanners run. Sevco delivers up-to-date and current exposure state without waiting for scheduled scans.
Unified Platform Approach
Replace fragmented vulnerability management tools with Sevco's unified platform for asset inventory, exposure assessment, and remediation tracking.
Rapid Deployment
Quickly connect to your sources through APIs. Deploy in minutes— no complex scanner integrations or professional services required. Start getting immediate visibility and value.
Seamless Migration Support
Sevco provides hands-on migration assistance for a seamless transition from Kenna, with minimal disruption to your vulnerability management workflows and security operations.
Active Development Roadmap
Invest in a platform with a strong future, not approaching end-of-life. Sevco is continuously releasing new capabilities based on customer feedback and emerging threats.
