StillSecure Launches Freeware Vulnerability Management System Based on StillSecure VAM
VAM Lite Offers Real-Time Vulnerability Detection on Infrastructure and Endpoint Devices
SUPERIOR, CO -- (Marketwire) -- 09/24/08 -- StillSecure®,provider of secure network infrastructure solutions, today announcedStillSecure VAM® Lite, a freeware version of StillSecure's vulnerabilitymanagement platform. VAMLite scans up to 100 infrastructure and endpoint devices to determinevulnerability levels, then automatically prioritizes them by severity anddevice importance so users can give immediate attention to the mostcritical threats.
"Organizations, especially in the mid-market, are struggling to implementintuitive, easy-to-use security tools that lock down the network withoutbreaking the bank," said Alan Shimel, Chief Strategy Officer atStillSecure. "VAM Lite provides a simple, no-cost, end-to-end vulnerabilitylifecycle management process to ensure that organizations remain on top ofthe latest security threats."
VAM Lite is based on StillSecure's enterprise vulnerability managementplatform, StillSecure VAM, which identifies, tracks, and manages the repairof network vulnerabilities. For users with a larger number ofinfrastructure devices, centralized administration and distributed scanningneeds, or compliance requirements, the full commercial version of VAM isrecommended.
According to Gartner, "IT security organizations require a network-basedapproach that can accurately discover and evaluate vulnerabilities onmanaged and unmanaged systems. However, for VA data to be used to improvesecurity and satisfy audit requirements, there must be strongprioritization capabilities and reporting with three orientations: security(vulnerability and threat-focused), operations (remediation-focused) andaudit (risk and remediation trending). Organizations also will need toimplement the vulnerability management lifecycle if they want to use VA tomake the environment more secure."(1)
