Greenbone Cloud Service

Greenbone Cloud Service is a fully managed, cloud-hosted vulnerability management and network exposure assessment solution engineered to help organizations systematically scan, evaluate, and remediate cybersecurity vulnerabilities across internet-facing assets and internal network infrastructure. Built upon Greenbone’s enterprise OpenVAS scanning engine, it delivers comprehensive vulnerability scanning without local hardware setup.

The service provides a centralized cloud portal that coordinates external perimeter scans and manages internal lightweight scan appliances. Core technical capabilities encompass automated vulnerability scanning against an extensive feed of over 150,000 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), CVSS v3.1 risk prioritization scoring, customizable scan scheduling, automated perimeter asset discovery, and compliance-ready executive PDF reports. Greenbone’s security feed is updated daily with newly researched vulnerability tests, ensuring protection against emerging zero-day vulnerabilities.

Mid-market enterprises, IT consulting firms, and public sector organizations implement Greenbone Cloud Service to maintain continuous vulnerability oversight and satisfy compliance mandates under GDPR, NIS2, and ISO 27001. The solution operates in strict compliance with German and European data privacy laws. Common operational use cases include conducting recurring monthly external perimeter vulnerability scans, identifying unpatched web servers and network firewalls, preparing for regulatory compliance examinations, and providing IT technicians with detailed technical remediation guidance.
