Demonstrate Product Consolidation
Velocity maps the coverage of cybersecurity products so organizations can track product overlap.
“Velocity has been a game-changer for our organization. Prior to implementation of Velocity, vendor security assessments required significant time and effort, only to produce results that weren’t consistent nor measurable. Internal assessments were managed through a myriad of spreadsheets. With Velocity, we have a tool that allows us to seamlessly transition from assessment to identifying where our time and money should be allocated to make the most improvement, as well as, produce reports to track and report on progress towards improving our security posture.”
