Patch Management

As mentioned is some security portions of our site, a compromised system must be rebuilt from scratch; it’s impossible to determine whether or not you’ve successfully removed any and all backdoors or hidden accesses an attacker may have planted on your network. It’s much more cost- and time-effective to address the problem proactively and prevent these attacks from happening. We offer a managed system that eliminates the manual, ad-hoc application of patches and the time-consuming task of validating patch levels.

An effective patch management solution allows you to proactively manage security threats by automating the collection, analysis, and delivery of security patches throughout the enterprise. Automating this process can significantly decrease the costs involved in securing an organization from worms, viruses and other malicious threats. In order to be truly effective, patch management must be consistently and continuously applied throughout the organization according to a well-defined process.

Vulnerability Management

CAD’s vulnerability management solution, using Patchlink products, provides layered security through the integration of both host-based and network-based vulnerability scanning. The analysis and remediation of both internal and external views enhances the security of platforms or applications beyond their native capabilities.

This vulnerability management solution leverages a 360-degree scan of the computers on your network. First, the agent provides an internal host-based scan of each machine, checking registry information and performing detailed file checks. The detailed scan data is then combined with the vulnerability information gathered by leading external scanners (Harris, Foundstone, Qualys, eEye, ISS, Nessus and Microsoft) into PatchLink Update.

Compliance Management

Compliance with the recent onslaught of security regulations (such as SOX, HIPAA and FISMA) presents a growing challenge for organizations of all sizes. Non-compliance can not only preclude entry into highly regulated but profitable markets, it can actually create personal risk to senior management, CFOs and CEOs in particular. Senior managers must ensure that security processes across the company provide the levels of accountability demanded by internal policies or the law.
