Devfense NSA Network Security Mapping
By Alan Harten
November 21, 2008
A new security assessment tool may prove useful for accurately mapping a company’s assets.
This can be of great assistance in deflecting attacks by organised cyber criminals.
These criminals are paying a lot of attention to Web application Security, and are always intent on finding a way around any barriers that are placed in their path.
They probe, and poke around inside networks looking for cracks and open back doors in firewalls and other security precautions.
PCIS believes it now has a tool which can be of great assistance to companies wishing to keep out these dangerous hackers.
Their newly instigated Boonbox Devfense NSA (Network Security Assessment) accurately defines an organisation’s network inventory and creates a map to easily identify any holes, as well as implement security features to repair any security problems.
Companies are now more aware of the security problems that can result in devastating losses of all kinds for large-scale network users.
This new mapping system is intended to give a very clear picture of exactly what the network looks like and where problems are occurring.
It allows corporate customers to easily see different types of devices found on their network, as well as how people are making connections into the system.
It will give clear indications about the state of operating systems and software that may be required to be updated.
The system is intended to make network owners far more aware of all potential risks and just how to fix them.
