Automated Scanning Services - Service Provider Platorm
Providing security services is becoming an essential part of any network-related service offering. Beyond Security's Automated Scanning system was designed to allow easy integration with existing infrastructure. Whether in a security operating center (SOC), an ASP farm, colocation or as an outsourced service, the Automated Scanning Vulnerability assessment solution can become a part of your service offering quickly.
About the Automated Scanning Service
The system locates and exposes security breaches and vulnerabilities, and lists their exact location and description, along with suggested solutions. The system is able to scan all pre-configured IP's simultaneously, or schedule tests for specific IP addresses at specific times. Each scan includes the widest range of security tests available today. The Automated Scanning mechanism is updated 3 times daily for new vulnerabilities. This proactive security assessment is not confined to a particular operating system type or version. Automated Scanning includes general security tests, along with specific tests for Windows 9x/NT/2000, UNIX, and Novell. Among these tests are special firewall and network router checks, application level tests, and more.
Differential Reporting Capabilities
Differential Reporting is a key security management tool in monitoring and assessing changes in network vulnerabilities and policies, on an ongoing basis.
The differential report details 3 different levels:
- A graphic report identifying trends in the management of security vulnerabilities and fixes
- A report representing problems by age analysis, and categorizing problems into high, medium and low risk.
- A technical report specifying the security holes that were revealed, their severity (identified by high, medium and low risk), their location and effect, and how to repair them. In addition, the report shows the complete list of security tests that were performed. This can be in a single report, in 3 different reports or any other combination.
Customized server in the Solution Provider's Premises
Beyond Security offers dedicated pre-configured U1, 19" Rack-mounted server to be deployed within the solution provider's environment.
Upgrade your service offering
To date, the approach that most solution providers have adopted to secure their clients has been to batch-test for known vulnerabilities on an ad-hoc basis. In other words, a specialist will handle each IP individually, and test areas that he knows to be specific to that IP only. A typical problem associated with this kind of approach is unproductive time management. A specialist either spends too much time on this function, leaving other critical IT areas unmanaged, or spends not enough time, thus neglecting this function.
Our solution allows the specialist to automatically scan for the whole range of options on each IP all the time, giving him absolutely all the information available on any IP, at any time. The key differentiation is that the specialist now has far more information about his hosts at any specific time, allowing him to better manage his security function.
Another problem facing many solution providers is the fact that the specialist has to ensure that his testing methods are constantly updated - a task that is virtually impossible to manage on an on-going basis. The Automated Scanning system is updated transparently and in real-time, allowing the specialist the confidence that reports received are always up-to-date. We are able to do this through our R&D team, which operate the security portal www.securiteam.com recognized as one of the leading portals in the world of security today.
