About Qualys Community Edition

Qualys Community Edition is a free tier of the Qualys cloud security platform. It discovers assets, assesses them for vulnerabilities, checks compliance and monitors web applications, and it helps prioritise the findings. The free edition covers a small number of IP addresses, reported as up to 16.

It suits home lab owners, students and small teams who want to try an enterprise vulnerability management product on a few machines. Larger environments and the rest of the Qualys product range need a paid subscription.

Strengths

  • Includes compliance checks and web application monitoring
  • Free tier from an established vendor of vulnerability management tools

Limitations

  • Free edition is limited to a small number of IPs
