AlgoSec Partners with Qualys Allowing Organisations to Manage Security Risks in a Business Context
February 2014 by Marc Jacob
AlgoSec and Qualys has announced their partnership to enable businesses to manage security and risk across their organisations.
The latest version of the AlgoSec Security Management Suite includes integration with QualysGuard Vulnerability Management (VM) to aggregate and score vulnerabilities associated with data centre applications and their physical or virtual servers. This gives customers unprecedented visibility into the risk levels of data centre applications, even as they change, enabling IT and security teams to effectively communicate with business stakeholders so they can quickly taking the actions needed to mitigate IT security issues.
In addition to aggregating vulnerability information per business application, AlgoSec provides a security rating across each physical or virtual server. As application connectivity flows change, vulnerability scores are automatically updated to ensure the most up-to-date view of risk to a data centre application. Additionally, AlgoSec provides an immediate view of any server that has not been scanned for vulnerabilities within a specific interval.
The AlgoSec Security Management Suite delivers an automated and application-centric solution for managing complex policies across firewalls, routers, switches and web proxies to improve both security and business agility. The AlgoSec Suite bridges traditional gaps between security, network and application teams to simplify and automate data centre and network operations. The AlgoSec Suite simplifies application delivery, streamlines change management, ensures continuous compliance, and delivers a tighter security policy that offers better protection against cyber-attacks.
