Utilizing AI for Detecting Risks: Introducing AI Agent Nova
In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, staying ahead of potential threats is paramount. Enter Agent Nova, a groundbreaking tool powered by Agentic AI on the Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Management Platform.
Agent Nova enriches vulnerabilities with threat actor and exploit intelligence, providing a comprehensive understanding of the risks at hand. By asking simple yet insightful questions, such as 'Which of my newly discovered internet-facing assets have vulnerabilities?', Nova instantly identifies the subset of assets that are both newly discovered and vulnerable.
But Agent Nova doesn't stop there. It highlights toxic combinations that demand immediate attention, offering clarity in seconds by delivering context-rich results. By asking, 'Which of these vulnerabilities are being exploited by threat actors?', Nova overlays threat intelligence to show which vulnerabilities are actively exploited.
Nova brings a new level of efficiency to the cycle from detection to resolution. It eliminates the friction between data and action by providing plain-language answers to critical security questions. Every query with Agent Nova becomes a decision, and every decision turns into action.
Moreover, Agent Nova eliminates cloud blind spots, similar to Agent Vikram. It links directly to asset ownership for faster remediation, ensuring no threat exposure lingers unmanaged. Analysts can focus on the riskiest assets rather than sifting through noise when Nova highlights the riskiest combinations, like internet-facing systems with high-severity CVEs, known exploits, and risky ports.
Agent Nova is more than just automation; it is Agentic AI applied to exposure management. It operates by interpreting user intent, running the right CyberSecurity Asset Management (CSAM)/External Attack Surface Management (EASM) queries, and providing contextual insights.
Developed by Google as part of their Gemini generative AI model suite, Agent Nova is poised to redefine the way we approach cybersecurity.

With Agent Nova, the future of cybersecurity is here, offering a seamless transition from detection to resolution, and ensuring a secure digital environment for all.
