GraniteEdge Networks Introduces Enterprise Internal Network Security Assessment

Posted on: Tuesday, 14 February 2006, 09:00 CST

GraniteEdge Networks, the leader in security analytics, announced today the GraniteEdge SAFE (Security Audit for the Enterprise) audit program to help companies identify high-risk network activity including policy violations, misconfigurations, and active worms and viruses. Leveraging the award-winning GraniteEdge ESP solution, SAFE offers the industry's most detailed Network Behavior Analysis (NBA) assessment of the current state of an enterprise's internal network security.

"Nearly every enterprise has unknown network policy violations, unauthorized services, rogue IPs, and misconfigurations that leave their networks vulnerable to security breaches," said Dr. Ross Ortega, president and co-founder of GraniteEdge Networks. "The SAFE program provides organizations with detailed profiles of high-risk behaviors and recommendations of action to increase their internal network security posture and protect high-value corporate assets."

The GraniteEdge SAFE audit leverages the appliance-based GraniteEdge ESP system to capture network flow information and perform sophisticated analytics on network behavior. With GraniteEdge ESP security teams are able to visually see suspicious behavior unfold, identify holes in network security policies and configurations, map attacks to their source, and continually capture strategic intelligence regarding impacted resources.

The SAFE audit is specifically designed to provide enterprises with rapid feedback while requiring minimal resource commitment. The typical SAFE audit is a five-week engagement. At the conclusion of the review period, enterprises will be presented with a detailed analysis of high-risk behaviors, the impact of those behaviors, identified vulnerabilities and recommendations for improving internal network security.

Unveiled at the RSA(R) Security Conference in the San Jose Convention Center, GraniteEdge Networks will be raffling a free SAFE audit, valued at $20,000. Interested security professional should visit Booth #2277 from February 14th - 16th.
