Case Study: Dräger achieves continuous product security with Flashpoint VulnDB

Dräger - Customer Case Study

Dräger, a manufacturer of medical and safety technology products, needed to ensure the continuous security of its devices to protect patient safety but found that its reliance on the CVE/NVD database was inefficient. The existing data was often incomplete, missing key details, or lacked coverage for their software components, which forced their security team to spend excessive time on lengthy manual research. This challenge threatened their ability to perform timely vulnerability management and meet their critical mission.

To address this, Dräger implemented Flashpoint's VulnDB, a comprehensive vulnerability intelligence service. The solution provided detailed, pre-assessed data covering both open-source and commercial software, enabling continuous monitoring without the need for traditional scanning. With VulnDB's real-time alerts and API integration, Dräger's team saved significant time and resources, allowing them to focus on unique security tasks and make informed decisions to quickly remediate threats, thereby ensuring the long-term safety of their products.
