Whether your company has three computers or thirty thousand, there is a universal truth that affects your organization - new software vulnerabilities are being discovered every day and you need to find and address them in order to protect your data.
Digital Defense (DDI) understands these challenges, along with the fact that most vulnerability scanning solutions simply do not provide the information, and value, that today's IT executives demand.
DDI Vulnerability Scanning Solutions (VSS) are a cornerstone element of any information security program. VSS are used to protect your information assets by evaluating the security posture of the IP devices connected to your computing networks across the globe on an individual IP or enterprise-wide basis.
Vulnerability Scanning Solutions are offered at three different service levels:
As illustrated in the figure below, each of the three service levels builds upon the previous one.
The primary objective of providing three service levels is to ensure that we align our service level to meet your operational needs and, at the same time, work within your information security assessment budget.
The security posture is determined by scanning one or all of the IP addresses that support your company's business operation in order to fingerprint network-connected devices (e.g. servers, workstations, routers, firewalls, etc.).
After fingerprinting, each device is subjected to a battery of tests to determine if vulnerabilities are present. The individual devices and the networks to which they are connected are then rated based on the number and severity level of vulnerabilities found. When vulnerabilities are detected, based on your predefined policies, the system quickly and automatically responds, sending an alert so that immediate action can be taken.
The hardware/software application is installed on your premises and connected to a VSS-enabled Security Network Operations Center, where VSS-trained Security Analysts ensure you can perform vulnerability scans on your network at any time, from anywhere around the globe. DDI, a recognized leader in network security, provides maintenance procedures, installation, and day-to-day management. In addition, the Vulnerability Scanning Solutions include maintenance of hardware and software components as well as installation of required upgrades.
VSS-enabled Security Network Operations Center (S/NOC) - provides 24x7 technical support and is located in a highly secure, fully redundant facility, equipped with emergency backup power.
Geographic and/or Line of Business Scanning - VSS are tailored to meet your needs. Whether by geographic region and/or by line of business, VSS provides you with a comprehensive analysis of the security of your business operation.
Active View™ Workflow Management - allows clients to monitor remediation activity on hosts in offices around the block or around the world. It also delivers systematic validation and verification of the effectiveness of your patch management programs.
Customer-defined Risk Ratings - allows you to set the business risk level of your IP devices to a level based on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Security GPA® - VSS assign a rating. Think of it as a grade point average or "Security GPA" to your network. Security GPA is based on a complex algorithm that takes into account both the network security posture rating and the business risk associated with discovered vulnerabilities.
Online Reports - are based on data collected from each individual Scanning Sensor managed by the VSS S/NOC and are available on the VSS Frontline™ portal.
