About Zafran Security

Zafran Security sells a platform that brings vulnerability findings together across existing tools into a unified view of exposure across the hybrid enterprise.[1][2]

Zafran unifies cloud, on-prem, and AppSec findings into one record, collapses the duplicates, and maps each asset to the controls protecting it. Zafran takes cloud and AppSec findings from Wiz, Palo Alto Networks, Upwind, AWS and Snyk, and on-prem findings from Tenable, Qualys and Rapid7. Zafran aggregates, normalizes and deduplicates findings from every source, including Zafran Discover, Tenable, Rapid7, Wiz, AWS, Snyk, and 100+ more integrations. Tenable.io, Wiz, CrowdStrike, Snyk, ServiceNow, Palo Alto and Qualys VMDR connect to Zafran over their APIs and sync their records, with no agent deployed. Zafran connects to the security stack a customer already runs, with no new agent to deploy.[2][5][6]

Zafran applies a customer's own risk context to reveal which vulnerabilities are exploitable in its environment. Zafran's Exposure Graph weighs what's running and reachable, exploited in the wild, unprotected by controls, and critical to the business. Zafran confirms whether vulnerable code is actually loaded to memory across every asset in a hybrid stack. Zafran models the real path to each asset, outside-in and inside-out, through NAT, load balancers, WAFs, and firewalls. Zafran flags what attackers are exploiting in the wild, with threat intelligence from multiple sources. Zafran lets customers set business criticality with their own rules and has an AI agent suggest levels for assets they have not classified. Zafran combines every signal into one score, with each weight configurable by the customer's team.[1][2][3][7][8][10]

Zafran flags where existing controls are missing, misconfigured, or bypassable, so policy-driven mitigations close the window on validated exposures before an exploit happens. Zafran assesses firewall, WAF, cloud security group, and EDR configurations to show which vulnerabilities are already blocked. Zafran protects end-of-life systems, OT, and business-critical apps that can't be patched or taken offline.[2][8]

RemOps uses generative AI to consolidate overlapping remediation tasks, create a clear get-well plan, and route work to the right owners through existing ticketing platforms. Zafran auto-assigns fixes to the right owner in Jira, Slack and ServiceNow, and delivers mitigations ahead of patch cycles to existing network defenses. Zafran sends IT one consolidated ticket per fix, with the risk evidence attached and the right owner assigned.[1][2][9]

Zafran surfaces new assets, control configuration changes, and disclosed vulnerabilities as they happen. Zafran detects vulnerabilities from a customer's software components the moment a threat surfaces. Zafran's Zero Day Agent matches a flaw to a customer's live software inventory, showing which assets run the vulnerable version, which are reachable from the internet, and which are blocked by a live control. Zafran helps security teams proactively hunt for exposures tied to new CVEs, zero-days, threat actors, and control gaps across the hybrid enterprise.[2][6][10]

Zafran builds audit-ready and board-ready reports from live data, with templates for SLA compliance, MTTR, and control efficacy. Zafran AI creates on-demand reports from natural-language queries. Zafran generates context-aware reports with AI agents on a schedule of hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly. Zafran lets teams set SLAs and track them alongside built-in SSVC timelines aligned to CISA BOD 26-04. Zafran turns findings, assets, mitigations, or remediations into views that can be exported to PDF.[11]

Zafran offers a five-stage maturity model for banks, insurers and payment processors that need to move fast and prove every risk call to auditors. Zafran compiles the detection and remediation metrics regulators ask for from live platform data. For healthcare, Zafran pulls findings from every scanner into one deduplicated record through agentless APIs, so nothing new touches clinical systems or slows down patient care. Zafran shows which EDR, firewall, and segmentation controls already protect medical devices and end-of-life systems that cannot be patched.[1][5][8][9][10][12]
