Good decisions start with
good product knowledge.
Product Security teams often lose time not because they lack analysis tools, but because they first need to find the right information: which version is shipping, where a component is used, which products share a dependency, or why a decision was made six months ago. VAST keeps that knowledge usable, then puts it to work when the situation calls for it.
What VAST changes in the daily work of teams
A new product enters the portfolio. The first step is to build a usable picture of it.
The team creates the Project and Asset, then progressively enriches the Asset Inventory: hardware, software and SBOM, applications, accounts, data, interconnections, tools, updates and dependencies. This foundation is not only documentation. It becomes the common reference for search, vulnerabilities and future assessments.
"Where do we use this library?"
A team learns that a library or technology must be updated. VAST can search across Projects, Assets and versions to find the products that use it and open their context.
A critical vulnerability was just published. Before deciding what to do, you need to know where it exists.
The team searches for the affected component, finds the Assets and versions that may be exposed, then opens each product context to investigate exploitability and required actions. The same information can be followed through to the VEX decision.
A new product version is ready. Understand what changed before reassessing what did not.
The Asset keeps the version context. Teams can review changes in product composition and find the cybersecurity items connected to the previous state: vulnerabilities, threats, assessments or decisions.
New threat knowledge becomes relevant to a technology used in the portfolio.
VAST Threat Engine brings available threat knowledge together with Asset context. Teams can identify the topics that deserve review without manually browsing a generic catalog for every product.
Product information changed. Which assessments really deserve another review?
Risk Assessment stays connected to the product, its version and the information used in the analysis. When a significant change appears, teams can find the assessments that may be affected and focus the review where it is useful.
A supplier or component becomes a concern. Which products inherit the problem?
With structured portfolio knowledge, teams can search for products using a given component, technology or supplier, then open the affected Assets and start the right analysis.
A customer asks for justification. The team should not have to rebuild six months of decisions.
VAST keeps the product, version, assessments, decisions, treatments and evidence in the same context. Teams can prepare a view or report for the intended audience without automatically exposing all internal data.
Preparing for the CRA is not only about producing a documentation package in 2027.
The real work is knowing the products placed on the market, following their versions and components, handling vulnerabilities during the support period, maintaining assessments and keeping evidence of decisions. VAST connects these activities around the Asset instead of treating them as separate exercises.
An important issue appears. Management needs to know which Projects and Assets are affected.
VAST dashboards consolidate portfolio information and allow drill-down to the product and the data behind the indicator. Teams can follow Asset Inventory coverage, vulnerabilities, reviews, treatments and other priority topics according to their responsibilities.
