Remediate Risk Without the Roadblocks: Automate with Qualys Flow 

Remediation and Workflow Automation, Redefined

Still relying on manual steps in your cloud security?

It’s outdated, and it’s risky.

Manual processes lead to slower threat detection, human errors, increased operational costs, and compliance delays. This isn’t just inefficient—it’s a liability.

Enter Qualys Flow (QFlow) by Qualys TotalCloud—the no-code workflow automation engine that’s turning cloud security into a competitive advantage.

The Cloud Security Bottleneck

Cloud environments are complex and inherently dynamic, with constantly shifting workloads. Security teams face:

• Visibility Gaps: Challenges identifying and monitoring all cloud assets in real time.
• Manual Processes: Time-consuming remediation tasks that delay response times.
• Noise Overload: Extra cycles spent sifting through excessive alerts to pinpoint critical vulnerabilities.
• Unclear Ownership: Uncertainty in determining responsibility for remediation across teams.

Traditional tools struggle to overcome these challenges. What you need is not just more alerts—but the automation to act on them. That’s where QFlow changes the game.

Meet QFlow—Your No-Cloud Security Engine

 QFlow brings drag-and-drop simplicity to automation. No code, no custom scripts, no delays. Create custom security workflows that identify risks, enrich data, trigger remediation, and even notify stakeholders—all in one visual interface.

With QFlow, you can automate remediation and various other workflow tasks across your cloud infrastructure, ensuring seamless end-to-end orchestration. Whether it’s addressing misconfigurations or enforcing compliance policies, QFlow enables your security teams to act swiftly and effectively.

Key Features of QFlow

1. No-Code Workflow Creation: Build workflows effortlessly using a visual interface. Drag-and-drop nodes represent specific functions like detection triggers, data enrichment, or remediation actions.
2. End-to-End Automation: Automate the entire lifecycle of security processes—from identifying risks to resolving them—reducing manual effort and human error.
3. Customizable Playbooks: Tailor workflows to meet your organization’s unique requirements without needing programming skills.
4. Integration with DevOps Tools: Seamlessly connect with existing DevOps pipelines and IT Service Management (ITSM) platforms for cohesive operations.
5. Real-Time Alerts and Monitoring: Set up triggers for immediate notifications on high-risk events, ensuring rapid response.
6. Kickstart your automation journey with over 200 ready-to-use QFlow Playbooks designed to get you up and running fast

Benefits of Using QFlow

• Cut MTTR (Mean Time to Remediate) with instant, rule-based responses
• Boost Team Efficiency by eliminating repetitive tasks
• Enhanced Collaboration: Integrate workflows across teams, ensuring everyone from DevOps to IT has visibility into security operations.
• Scale with Confidence: Adapt workflows as your cloud environment evolves, maintaining consistent security controls across all assets.

Use Case: Auto-Remediate Cloud Misconfigurations

Imagine a scenario where a misconfigured AWS S3 bucket exposes sensitive data. With Qualys QFlow:

1. A trigger node detects the misconfiguration in real time.
2. The workflow automatically enriches data with contextual insights (e.g., asset criticality).
3. A remediation node applies corrective action by reconfiguring the bucket settings.
4. The workflow closes the loop by notifying stakeholders and generating compliance reports.

This streamlined process ensures swift resolution while maintaining audit trails for accountability. 
This is just a simple example of what QFlow can accomplish.

Why Choose QFlow?

Unlike traditional solutions that rely on fragmented tools or manual interventions, QFlow provides a unified platform for automating cloud security workflows. Its integration with the Qualys TotalCloud CNAPP Platform ensures comprehensive visibility and risk prioritization powered by TruRisk™, enabling organizations to focus on what truly matters—reducing risk effectively.

Why Security Teams Choose QFlow:

With QFlow, you can take control of your cloud security posture like never before. Simplify operations, enhance collaboration, and ensure rapid risk mitigation—all without writing a single line of code.
