The Market Need
Your Entire IT Infrastructure Depends Upon Network Devices.
If a server is compromised, it is a problem, if a router or switch is compromised, this is a major disaster as hundreds of systems rely on those devices for connectivity. Network security efforts past and present focus on many areas, application security, database security and more, but almost always network devices such as routers and switches are an after thought. Due to the critical role of routers and switches, they are an attractive, popular target for attackers who frequently seek to disrupt IT operations and or compromise sensitive data.
Wireless Access Points extend the boundaries of the network beyond the walls of an organization. Maintaining secure configurations, identifying vulnerabilities and keeping Rogue wireless devices out of the network is increasingly difficult for over worked/ under staffed IT organizations.
Our Solution
Refense VMS proactively discovers and helps mitigate vulnerabilities within routers and switches which threaten the availability and integrity of those devices.
Discover Your Vulnerable Wireless Networks, Before Attackers Do
Recent research from RSA Security demonstrated that 63% of wireless networks surveyed were insecure and vulnerable to attackers. Enterprises across the globe have already or are starting to rapidly deploy wireless LAN's, to leverage the increase in productivity and cost savings. This additional connectivity does not come without risk, as a single insecure wireless access point could provide attackers an open door into a network, effectively bypassing other security measures. To further complicate the issue, discovering that insecure wireless access point among hundreds of wireless access points, is akin to the proverbial "needle in a haystack".
Refense VMS provides an automated solution to identify ROGUE wireless access points across the entire enterprise. This enables organizations to ensure not only are corporate sponsored wireless access points are securely configured, but more important that any unauthorized devices (Rogue) are identified from a centralized location.
The Proactive Security Solution for Network Devices
• Refense VMS is a vulnerability management solution dedicated to identifying and mitigating threats and vulnerabilities within network devices.
• Proactively detects vulnerable wireless access points, pinpointing vulnerabilities such as lack of wireless encryption, access control and much more.
• Identifies current and potential vulnerabilities within routers and switches in areas such as SNMP, http management, logging, etc.
Based on Industry Best Practices and Standards
Refense VMS enables organizations to perform real time vulnerability scans utilizing predefined security policies which can be completely customized for compliance to specific policies and standards. Our predefined policies are based on industry best practices and recommendations from NIST, Cisco, SANS and others. |
