Cavelo Inc., an attack surface management technology provider, recently announced the debut of its new Automated Configuration Management capability to assist managed security service providers (MSSPs) in supporting security, compliance, and client maturity.
ACM available now as a standalone product or component in Cavelo platform
The capability will be available as a standalone solution or can be integrated with Cavelo’s broader platform. The solution empowers MSSPs and MSPs to standardize secure baselines, detect drift, and support regulatory compliance while maturing clients’ security posture.
“Configuration management doesn’t have to be complex or chaotic,” said James Mignacca, CEO at Cavelo. “Our new capability gives MSSPs and MSPs an easy, powerful way to maintain security standards, support compliance goals, and simplify day-to-day configuration management– whether they manage five clients or five hundred.”
The Automated Configuration Management capability provides a proactive, low-friction approach to establishing, monitoring, and enforcing system configurations across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. It enables MSSPs and MSPs to establish and apply multiple baseline tiers tailored to client maturity levels, including beginner, intermediate, and advanced designations.
Security enforcement and reporting among the top benefits for partners
It also enables providers to enforce security hygiene consistently across diverse environments, while accommodating individual client needs.
Among the features of the capability are:
- Built-in compliance reporting and visibility: This feature enables organizations to meet frameworks such as CMMC, NIST, CIS, and PCI-DSS with purpose-built compliance baselines and reports. This enables service providers and their clients to create and select configuration baselines aligned with specific regulatory frameworks; generate refined audit-ready reports that highlight how environments meet requirements; and quickly identify gaps with easy-to-read summaries to prioritize remediation.
- Safe, low-impact remediation to speed up time-to-value: Cavelo’s solution offers secure, low-impact remediation capabilities that allow users to apply fixes with minimal disruption with actionable steps to remediate O365 benchmarks; take action on “easy wins” without escalating risk; and receive automated remediation for select benchmarks, rollback, and execution history with the purchase of the remediation feature.
- Multitenant-ready: Enables practitioners to centrally manage configuration baselines across all client environments.
- Drift detection enabled: Automatically identifies and flags deviations from secure baselines in real time.
- Audit-friendly: Maintains historical snapshots and tracks configuration changes for audit trails.
“We designed this for the real-world challenges MSSPs and MSPs face every day,” said Larry Meador, Channel Chief at Cavelo. “It’s not just about fixing configurations. It’s about giving providers control, consistency, and the tools to guide their customers to better security outcomes. Our platform makes processes smoother, faster, and more aligned with how service providers actually work.”
Through this safe and low-impact remediation feature, service providers and their clients obtain a streamlined approach that prioritizes security and simplicity.
Cavelo’s consolidated attack surface management platform features the Automated Configuration Management capability as the latest addition. The consolidated attack surface management platform helps MSSPs and MSPs reduce cyber risk through unified data discovery, access control, and risk-based vulnerability management.
“Cavelo’s automated configuration management gives us exactly what we’ve been missing– a way to audit and execute secure baselines across our clients without the manual overhead,” said Rick Mutzel, manager of technology at Omega Systems. “We love that we can create our own maturity tiers and gradually move customers up the ladder, while also having fast access to compliance-aligned reports. It’s helping us deliver more value, more consistently, and with less effort.”
