Discover IBM Concert

IBM® Concert helps organizations understand, prioritize, and remediate operational and security risk across their application landscape by using AI-driven analytics, automation, and contextual insights.

Concert brings together application inventory, analytics, and automation to deliver a unified view of operational health, risk, and posture across the application landscape. Concert evaluates critical indicators, referred to as dimensions to identify and prioritize risks that are related to vulnerabilities, compliance, certificates, resilience, and software composition. By using a shared data foundation and AI‑driven intelligence, Concert helps you to focus on the most relevant risks and take informed action across development and delivery activities.

How IBM Concert works

Concert works by ingesting and analyzing application data to provide contextual insight into operational risk.

At a high level, Concert:
  • Ingests data from multiple sources, including application components, repositories, images, and environments.
  • Builds an inventory and maps dependencies to create an application topology.
  • Analyzes data across defined dimensions to assess risk and posture.
  • Prioritizes risks based on severity and impact.
  • Surfaces insights and recommendations to support remediation and automation.

What IBM Concert delivers

Concert helps to manage application risk and operational posture by transforming distributed application data into prioritized, actionable intelligence across the application lifecycle.

Gain a unified view of your application landscape

Concert ingests application components, repositories, images, and environments to build an inventory and application topology.
