Symantec Vulnerability Assessment
delivers automated, fast, and thorough vulnerability assessments, plus
prioritized remediation recommendations, enabling administrators to
quickly identify those systems and applications most at risk and take
rapid countermeasures to proactively secure them before costly incidents
occur. Symantec Vulnerability Assessment cost effectively provides a
comprehensive view of security and helps protect critical systems on the
network and perimeter as well as systems and network devices that cannot
be reached by host agents alone.
Symantec Vulnerability Assessment leverages the extensive,
industry-leading Symantec Vulnerability Database, which is indexed to
identify threats recognized by CVE and Bugtraq in order to allow
administrators to focus their resources on the most relevant,
high-impact vulnerabilities and attacks. Up-to-the-minute vulnerability
signatures are created as soon as new vulnerabilities are identified by
Symantec Security Response, delivering detailed descriptions and
remediation information. By providing complete remediation information
and the rapid deployment of new security updates and modules via
Symantec's LiveUpdate technology, Symantec Vulnerability Assessment
helps security professionals understand vulnerabilities and their
potential impacts and apply appropriate safeguards and patches to
effectively repair the vulnerabilities in their IT environments.
With the number of documented system vulnerabilities skyrocketing each
year, organizations need to take proactive measures that prevent the
loss of valuable information and protect business productivity. Symantec
Vulnerability Assessment allows organizations to proactively prevent the
exploitation of potential breaches that threaten the confidentiality,
integrity, and availability of business systems.
