Qualys FIM
Cloud solution for detecting and identifying critical changes, incidents, and risks resulting from normal and malicious events
About Qualys FIM
Qualys File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) is a cloud-based security solution that monitors and detects changes to files, directories, and system configurations across your IT infrastructure. It helps organizations identify critical changes that may indicate security incidents, compliance violations, or malicious activity. FIM provides real-time alerts and detailed audit trails, enabling security teams to respond quickly to unauthorized modifications. By integrating with the Qualys Cloud Platform, FIM offers centralized visibility, automated workflows, and seamless deployment across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments. With Qualys FIM, businesses can strengthen their security posture, meet regulatory compliance requirements such as PCI DSS, and reduce the risk of data breaches. AiDOOS enhances deployment and adoption by providing a streamlined onboarding process, automated sensor installation, and intuitive dashboards, making it easier for organizations to implement and manage file integrity monitoring at scale.
