Bridging the Remediation Gap: Introducing Pentera Resolve — or How to Make Security Teams Sweat Less (Sort Of)

Right, so apparently these glorious bastards at Pentera woke up one morning and realized — shocker — that just finding security holes isn’t enough. Because, you know, every damned company’s drowning in vuln reports and “critical threat detected” alerts that never get fixed. So here comes Pentera Resolve, their shiny new toy that doesn’t just poke holes in your network but supposedly helps you fix the bloody things, too. Halle-freakin’-lujah, someone figured out that knowing your system’s on fire doesn’t put it out.

Pentera Resolve basically grabs your vulnerability data, churns it through an automated sausage machine, and spits out actionable fixes — prioritizing what’s actually dangerous instead of the thousands of “medium risk” bits no one gives two shits about. It’s like a therapy session for overworked SecOps teams: “Here, mate, patch this first before your CEO ends up on the front page because of another ransomware hit.” The poor bastards finally get something that trims down the mountain of “urgent” tickets to something closer to a molehill.

They’re calling it “bridging the remediation gap,” but to me, it’s just filling in the colossal hole companies have been pretending isn’t there for the last decade. Less firefighting, more fixing — assuming, of course, the IT goblins actually read their dashboards instead of staring at memes all day. Still, credit where it’s due, this is a rare bit of tech that sounds useful and not just another shiny piece of bullshit “AI-driven” snake oil.

So yeah, Pentera Resolve: the tool that might save a few sysadmins from premature baldness — assuming they don’t fuck it up.

Reminds me of the time I built an automated patching script that fixed everything overnight — including the mail server, which it “fixed” by deleting every mailbox. Management thought the outage was a virus. I didn’t correct them.
