Tool before HivePro

Tenable Nessus

The challenge

Six people were working through endless Nessus output by hand

Goosehead's team had scanner coverage. What it lacked was a way to decide what to fix first.

Whack-a-mole remediation

The team worked reactively, fixing findings as they surfaced.

Lists with little context

Scans produced long vulnerability lists with no signal on which ones mattered.

CVSS missed business risk

Severity scores ranked findings without reference to the business impact.

Excel and ticket overhead

Tracking work in spreadsheets and tickets drained a small team's hours.

After HivePro

The team now fixes actively exploited threats first

Automated prioritization of actively exploited threats moved the program from reactive to proactive.

Proactive vulnerability management

Work starts from what attackers are exploiting today.

Risk-based prioritization

Findings are ranked by business risk, replacing raw CVSS order.

Real-time exploit visibility

The team sees and validates exploit activity as it happens.

50% fewer vulnerabilities

Total vulnerabilities dropped by more than half, roughly 10,000 in a year.

In their words

“Hive Pro is indispensable! It would require multiple FTEs to replace it.”
