BeyondTrust Streamlines Privileged Access and Vulnerability Management with BeyondInsight 6.0
August 2016 by Marc Jacob
BeyondTrust announced the release of BeyondInsight
6.0, enabling organizations to assess cloud and virtual environments, share
actionable intelligence with leading SIEMs, consolidate vulnerability data
from various scanners and centrally manage host-based scans.
The new and enhanced connectors further BeyondTrust’s comprehensive
vulnerability management strategy by:
. Closing security gaps created by cloud, virtual and mobile
platforms: BeyondTrust’s cloud and virtual connectors and Retina Host
Security Scanner eliminate gaps within an organizations security posture,
providing a true picture of its enterprise risk.
. Improving visibility of hidden and emerging threats: BeyondTrust’s
SIEM connectors give organizations automated access to normalized threat
intelligence, enabling them to more quickly prioritize threats and in turn
respond more efficiently.
. Covering the widest range of assets and vulnerabilities: Tenable
Security Center and Tripwire connectors add to BeyondTrust’s list of
supported 3rd party scanners, enabling organizations to correlate
vulnerability data from a number of on premise and cloud-based scanners
within a centralized reporting and analytics platform.
"Cloud and virtual infrastructures by nature are very elastic," said Brad
Hibbert, CTO at BeyondTrust. "As a result, their presence can be hard to
predict making scanning them even more difficult. Unknown or undermanaged
cloud and virtual environments pose a significant risk opening networks to
security breaches, data loss, intellectual property theft, and regulatory
compliance issues. BeyondInsight’s connectors enable organizations to
discover all cloud and virtual instances in an environment, group cloud
assets for secure management, and scan for known and emerging
vulnerabilities."
BeyondInsight 6.0 supports a number of new and enhanced third party
connectors:
* Cloud: Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure
* Virtual: Microsoft Hyper-V
* SIEM: FireEye TAP, HP Arcsight, IBM QRadar, LogRythm, McAfee ESM,
Splunk
* Vulnerability Scanners: Tenable Security Center, Tripwire
Availability
BeyondTrust BeyondInsight 6.0 is available immediately worldwide.
