Scalefusion Launches Veltar Vulnerability Management for Endpoints

Pune, India – October 07, 2026 -- ProMobi Technologies has launched Veltar Vulnerability Management, a new Scalefusion capability that merges vulnerability detection with endpoint remediation inside a single platform for Windows and macOS devices.
