Qualys, Inc. (NASDAQ: QLYS), a provider of cloud-based IT, security, and compliance solutions, has announced new Agentic AI capabilities on the Qualys platform.
The new AI fabric powers a marketplace of Cyber Risk AI Agents. These agents deliver real-time insights across all attack surfaces, prioritized by business impact. They also help reduce risk and operational costs through autonomous remediation at speed and scale. This enables a more efficient and intelligent Risk Operations Center (ROC).
As cyber threats grow in volume and complexity, security teams face millions of exposures with little context. Manual processes lead to delays and unaddressed vulnerabilities. To solve this, Qualys introduced Agentic AI to eliminate repetitive tasks and enable risk-focused workflows.
According to Tyler Shields, principal analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), 'Integrating Agentic AI into the Qualys platform marks a major leap from reactive response to real-time risk reduction.' He added that this innovation supports faster remediation and greater accuracy.
By embedding Agentic AI into Enterprise TruRisk Management (ETM), Qualys enhances risk-centric automation. ETM already aggregates exposures to align cyber risk with business value. With the new AI fabric, Qualys now offers pre-built AI agents for threat prioritization and remediation tailored to each organization.
The Cyber Risk Assistant is also introduced. This prompt-driven tool helps teams navigate risks, translate exposures, and deliver context-aware insights through autonomous operations.
The Qualys Marketplace now features: Continuous risk insights from fragmented exposures, using pre-built AI agents.

'Qualys Agentic AI, embedded into Enterprise TruRisk Management, is transforming how organizations manage cyber risk,' said Sumedh Thakar, President and CEO of Qualys. He emphasized that CISOs can now augment their teams with intelligent AI agents for faster, strategic risk reduction.
This launch represents a step forward in autonomous cybersecurity and smarter operations powered by AI.
