Concert Protect

Concert Protect is the risk and vulnerability management capability in IBM Concert platform. Concert Protect brings together vulnerability findings, software bill of materials (SBOM) data, compliance evidence, and related application context. You can prioritize remediation work based on business impact rather than reviewing issues one by one.

What Concert Protect is

Concert Protect manages application risk posture - the current state of risk across an application and its supporting environment, based on vulnerabilities, dependencies, compliance status, and exposure points.

In Concert platform, Concert Protect introduces risk data into the shared operational layer. You can evaluate security and compliance issues alongside signals from observability, optimization, and resilience capabilities. This platform context helps you decide which problems to address first and how those problems relate to runtime conditions and business priorities.

How Concert Protect works

Concert Protect ingests SBOM files, vulnerability scan results, and related application context. It maps components, environments, and access points and calculates risk scores.

Concert Protect generates remediation workflows and tracks issues across teams through integrations with Jira, GitHub, and ServiceNow. It presents risk information in role-based views so you can focus on the parts of the risk picture that matter to your work.

What you can do with Concert Protect

You can review vulnerabilities, compliance gaps, certificate expirations, and related exposures in one capability. You can use contextual application data to understand the likely impact and remediation options for specific findings.

Concert Protect provides AI-assisted vulnerability analysis, compliance evidence evaluation, resilience recommendations, and ticket generation.
