Shrink the backlog to vulnerabilities attackers can exploit
Hadrian tests your internet-facing assets like an attacker and confirms which findings are exploitable. Your backlog gets shorter, owners get clear fix steps, and every fix is retested.
Breeze Airways replaced CVSS-based ranking with validated exposures and cut the time its lean team spent on triage.

A backlog full of unexploitable CVEs
Hadrian's 2026 benchmark found only 0.47% of scanner findings are exploitable. The rest still take a slot in the queue and an analyst's time.
Severity scores set the order
Ranking by CVSS puts theoretical severity ahead of real exposure. The same benchmark found high-severity vulnerabilities take 139 days to fix, while critical ones are patched in four.
No confirmation that a fix worked
A closed ticket doesn't always mean a closed exposure. Without a retest, the team finds out at the next scan or the next pentest.
Only exploitable findings reach the backlog
Hadrian attempts to exploit each finding. If a firewall or configuration blocks the attack, the finding is deprioritized. What reaches your backlog has a confirmed path to compromise and step-by-step reproduction.
Prioritize by business impact
Findings are mapped to your business context, so owners fix what affects the business first. Breeze Airways used this to move from CVSS-based ranking to risk-based prioritization.
Retest every fix
When a risk is marked resolved, Hadrian retests it and confirms the exposure is closed. For a deeper check on a changed system, re-run a Nova assessment on that scope.
Working with Hadrian
Discover
Atlas maps your internet-facing assets continuously, including shadow IT and forgotten systems, and tests each change as it happens.
Validate and prioritize
Hadrian attempts to exploit each finding and ranks confirmed exposures by likelihood of exploitation and business impact.
Assign
Confirmed findings become Jira, ServiceNow or GLPI tickets with reproduction steps and remediation guidance for the owner.
Retest and measure
Resolved risks are retested automatically. Response times are tracked against industry benchmarks, so you can see the backlog shrink.

ICT Group
ICT Group moved off its existing vulnerability scanner, and its BitSight rating rose from Intermediate to Advanced.
Worldstream
Worldstream replaced CVSS-based, volume-driven vulnerability management with exposure-led prioritization.
Scanners match against lists of known CVEs and often produce many false positives. Hadrian safely runs real-world attack techniques to check whether a vulnerability can be exploited in your environment, and only reports the ones that can.
Yes. When your team marks a risk as resolved, Hadrian automatically retests it and confirms whether the exposure is closed.
For internet-facing assets, some customers have. ICT Group moved off its existing vulnerability scanning tool after deploying Hadrian and kept full visibility of its external attack surface.
Confirmed exposures are ranked by how likely they are to be exploited and the impact they could have, mapped to your business context instead of a generic severity score.
Our maturity model describes four stages of exposure management, from reactive discovery to continuous, autonomous validation. The self-assessment places your program and gives an action plan for the next stage.
