Action1 Free Initial Vulnerability Assessment is a cloud-based vulnerability assessment tool that provides one-time vulnerability scanning for an unlimited number of endpoints. The tool performs analysis of both operating system and third-party application vulnerabilities once an agent is installed on endpoints. The solution detects vulnerabilities in installed software applications and Windows operating systems across workstations and servers, including remote locations without VPN requirements. It integrates with CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog to identify actively exploited vulnerabilities. The product offers a free initial assessment where agents become inactive after sending vulnerability data to the Action1 platform. For the first 200 endpoints, the platform remains fully functional forever with no feature limitations, including automated patching capabilities. The platform provides real-time visibility into endpoint vulnerabilities without periodic scans and includes a live dashboard for monitoring patch compliance. It supports vulnerability remediation through built-in patching functionality for both OS and third-party applications. Action1 maintains a private software repository with 99% patching coverage for enterprise environments. The solution includes peer-to-peer distribution capabilities to minimize bandwidth usage and supports enterprise integrations through REST API and PowerShell scripting. The platform is certified with SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001:2022, and GDPR compliance.
