Without knowing anything about Qualys, I'm going to take a stab and 
guess it is looking in /etc/redhat-release for string matches.  There is 
also os-release, sl-release, and system-release.

Try backing them up and changing the string to either CentOS or RedHat's 
equivalent and see if that makes a difference.  The os-release is the 
preferred method, as it as the ID_LIKE attribute.  I doubt Qualys is 
using utilizing that information though.
