Continuous Security Monitoring Keeps Getting Harder
Continuous asset discovery and continuous vulnerability management go hand-in-hand. You can’t have one without the other when it comes to implementing a successful continuous security monitoring program. And, while you could leverage two separate tools to perform each of these tasks, why not make your life easier with a single solution that combines these capabilities? Even better, why not leverage a solution that combines all the essential capabilities for continuous security monitoring.
AlienVault Unified Security Management (USM) gives you the upper hand in detecting and remediating the vulnerabilities in your environment before attackers exploit them. It does so by delivering automated asset discovery and vulnerability scanning as part of a unified platform that also includes intrusion detection, behavioral monitoring, SIEM event correlation, log management, and, very importantly, continuously updated threat intelligence.
With AlienVault USM, you get crucial real-time visibility into assets on your network, which ones are vulnerable, and where the asset is actually exposed to threats–allowing you to focus on the most important issues first. You’ll be able to quickly answer critical and time-sensitive questions, such as:
- What devices are on my physical and virtual networks?
- What instances are running in my cloud environments?
- What vulnerabilities exist on the assets in my cloud and network?
- Are there known attackers trying to interact with my cloud and network assets?
- Are there active threats on my cloud and network assets?
Conclusion
Let’s face it: The bad guys aren’t going to let up when it comes to finding the holes in your security. They only need to find one weak spot to exploit, and they will find it if it’s there. This is why continuous security monitoring remains a must. And, this starts with knowing what assets are on your network and where you’re exposed. Let AlienVault USM help you gain the advantage over cyber criminals.
