New Qualys Security and Compliance Suite Provides Reporting Metrics for Enterprise Stakeholders
April 2008  by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Qualys announced QualysGuard 6.0, an upgrade to its flagship solution for vulnerability and compliance management. QualysGuard 6.0 enables security managers, as well as key organisation executives, including business line managers, members of the board and auditors, to get an on demand view of IT security and compliance within the enterprise.

QualysGuard 6.0 offers new metrics reporting supported by scorecards and secure, collaborative report distribution workflows which help operations and IT staff to be efficient and communicate effectively with auditors and executive management.

QualysGuard 6.0 is an integral component of the QualysGuard(r) Security and Compliance Suite also being demonstrated at the Infosecurity Europe tradeshow for the first time in Europe. The QualysGuard Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) suite helps organisations worldwide manage the ongoing convergence of security and policy compliance efforts.

As a SaaS offering, QualysGuard 6.0 requires no infrastructure to maintain or manage. Therefore, customers can immediately take advantage of the new features of the QualysGuard platform without having to install any new software. QualysGuard 6.0 features include:

- New "Scorecard" Reporting Feature: QualysGuard 6.0 introduces a new fully customizable report type, the scorecards, offering on demand reporting of the most vulnerable hosts, most prevalent vulnerabilities, required software (patches and agents), asset group vulnerabilities, and ignored vulnerabilities. These scorecards can be crafted to create a view of vulnerability and missing patches information across a business unit or the entire network.
- Collaborative Report Distribution: QualysGuard 6.0 offers IT Managers and Business Unit Managers the ability to create custom reports and share them securely with other users within the application regardless of the users’ access privileges. This is most valuable in support of sharing scorecards and other comparison reports across the security and audit teams.
- New Secure Distribution of Reports: QualysGuard 6.0 supports the ability to securely and automatically distribute encrypted PDF reports to parties outside of the subscription via email in support of executives or business line owners that need reports but do not have user accounts in QualysGuard.

- Availability

General availability of QualysGuard 6.0 is slated for 22 April 2008 in the US and 22 May 2008 in EMEA.
