About RankedRight

RankedRight was created to supercharge the efforts of cybersecurity teams worldwide with fast, effective vulnerability prioritization that puts the user in control.

96% of companies admit that prioritization is an essential or vital part of their vulnerability management program as it ensures that remediation teams focus their precious time on the most critical vulnerabilities. However, with a rise in vulnerabilities increasing the triage burden, remediation teams’ work is beginning later and later. With businesses with just 250 assets needing seven hours for manual triage each week, the delays for large enterprises with thousands of assets are significant.

RankedRight is the triage tool that automatically ranks vulnerabilities based on the rules set by its user, factoring in what is critical to the business and delegating it to the most appropriate person to resolve. This means teams spend less time on vulnerability administration and more time keeping their companies safe.
