What happened
Qualys blog roundup (Mar–Apr 2026) highlighting cloud security trends and product updates: cloud risk is becoming predictable and systemic (overprivileged identities, extended trust boundaries, persistent exposure); unpatched vulnerabilities remain a primary breach driver (~60%); remediation processes are lagging attackers. Qualys promotes operational solutions — Risk Operations Centers (ROC/mROC), Qualys Gateway Service for scalable discovery/remediation, Agent Val (agentic AI) for exploit validation and closed-loop mitigation, TruLens for real-time threat context, and container/Harbor scan‑/
