What is vQ-7.0.1?
vQ-7.0.1 is an enterprise security intelligence desktop product for authorised security teams. It gives analysts a focused desktop experience for reviewing security activity, developing investigations, recording evidence-led decisions, and working through governed operations.
Why businesses should choose vQ-7.0.1 now
Businesses adopt security technology to improve operational clarity, investigation quality, and accountability. vQ-7.0.1 addresses those current needs through its available desktop-led security intelligence workflow.
One operational security workspace
Security work becomes slower when relevant activity, incident records, and supporting context are difficult to follow together.
vQ-7.0.1 gives authorised teams a focused workspace for reviewing security activity and progressing investigations.
Evidence-led investigation
Businesses need response decisions that can be explained and reviewed, not just uncontextualised alerts.
Investigation workflows support evidence summaries, timeline context, linked activity, and recorded analyst conclusions.
Governed operational response
Security action must stay accountable to business policy and authorised oversight.
The product is positioned for controlled operations with documented decisions, role-aware working practices, and audit expectations.
Practical desktop adoption
Security teams need access that fits managed workstations without publicly exposing protected deployment configuration.
Businesses can distribute a desktop client for approved users while environment-specific access and protected evidence remain governed.
Clear operational handover
Incident work frequently crosses analysts, managers, and authorised stakeholders.
Structured records help teams communicate priority, progress, evidence, and outcomes consistently through the workflow.
Security-first adoption guidance
Enterprise software should be deployed and operated with integrity and information-protection expectations from day one.
Published download verification, installation guidance, and safe support practices help teams begin with responsible controls.

Current vQ-7.0.1 features explained
The features below describe the current product workflow at a safe public level. Enabled data integrations, policy configuration, and customer-specific controls are administered inside the deployed environment.
Security Command Dashboard
Presents operational security status in a single analyst workspace, including prioritised activity and incident visibility.
Analysts start here to understand what requires attention, move from a summary to an investigation, and avoid switching between disconnected views.
A common working picture helps security and leadership teams review workload, priority, and response progress consistently.
Threat Intelligence & Alert Triage
Organises approved threat observations and security telemetry so teams can review severity, context, and status.
An analyst reviews incoming findings, confirms relevance using the attached context, and promotes items that require investigation.
Supports faster prioritisation without presenting automated output as a substitute for analyst judgement.
Incident Case Management
Provides a structured record for incidents, ownership, priority, workflow status, and investigation actions.
Teams create or update a case, assign responsibility, record decisions, and maintain a clear progression from review through closure.
Creates an accountable operational record suitable for handover, review, and internal governance.
Evidence Dossier & Timeline
Groups relevant evidence summaries and investigation milestones around an incident record.
Responders consult the timeline when validating an incident, documenting actions, or preparing a sanitised report for authorised stakeholders.
Keeps decisions linked to supporting evidence while respecting retention and access controls.
Attack Relationship Analysis
Helps analysts examine relationships between relevant events, affected entities, and attack progression.
Investigators use connected context to explore possible paths, validate hypotheses, and decide what needs deeper examination.
Makes complex activity easier to reason about without disclosing internal network data in public product material.
Deception & Sensor Monitoring
Surfaces activity reported from approved defensive sensors and deception workflows where enabled by the deployment.
Analysts review triggered observations, relate them to investigations, and determine whether escalation is warranted.
Adds investigation context for suspicious interactions while keeping operational configuration protected.
Governed Response Operations
Supports security operations that require review, authorisation, and an auditable response record.
Teams follow their approved playbooks, document authorised decisions, and monitor resulting incident outcomes.
Encourages controlled response practices rather than unreviewed or opaque automation.
Desktop Analyst Access
Provides a dedicated desktop client for analysts to securely access the deployed vQ-7 service.
Users install the workstation application from this site, authenticate through their organisation's configured access flow, and work in the same central environment.
Keeps application delivery straightforward while platform policy, updates, and protected data remain centrally governed.
Desktop client and deployed service model
The public architecture describes functional boundaries only. It excludes internal URLs, credentials, network configuration, customer data flows, and deployment topology.
Desktop client
The installed vQ-7 desktop application is the analyst-facing client. It connects to the organisation's deployed service over an approved secure connection.
Central platform service
Investigation workflows, operational views, and governed security functions are served from the deployed platform rather than a local database bundled into the installer.
Approved intelligence inputs
Security telemetry and intelligence sources are configured by authorised administrators, not embedded or exposed on the public download page.
Enterprise controls
Identity, access policy, audit handling, retention, monitoring, and update governance remain under controlled administration.
