Lumigent Announces Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database
ACTON, Mass. --(Business Wire)-- Oct. 5, 2005 -- The Industry's First Vulnerability Management Solution for the Continuous Assurance of Information Security, Compliance and Integrity for the Oracle(R) Database
Lumigent Technologies, Inc., an industry leader in information security management solutions, today announced the availability of Lumigent(R) Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database, a powerful enterprise security solution that enables organizations to identify, analyze and continuously monitor and manage vulnerabilities. Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database is part of the Lumigent Information Security Management (ISM) Suite(TM) of products. Lumigent is a Certified Partner of the Oracle(R) PartnerNetwork.
Unlike many vulnerability assessment products which focus only on known database vulnerabilities, Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database helps organizations manage database security risks. Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database helps dynamic organizations centrally manage risk to sensitive data and compliance to regulatory mandates. Wherever data is created, accessed and managed, Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database helps identify and remediate vulnerabilities prior to exploitation by malicious insiders or external attacks.
"The last several years have seen an increased focus on the insider threat," said Robert Shimp, vice president, Technology Marketing, Oracle. "Solutions offered by Lumigent coupled with Oracle's industry-leading security capabilities deliver customers a holistic approach to information security."
Using industry best practices and an organization's own policy information, Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database provides current-state analysis of database vulnerabilities. Additionally, Vulnerability Manager enables organizations to perform an enterprise wide analysis of data accessibility and user authorizations, based upon which compliance to policies for privilege allocation, segregation of duties and account utilization can be measured and managed. Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database enables organizations to establish a baseline of acceptable risk.
"Protecting databases is paramount to an organization's information security management strategy. The continuous measurement of security risk and regulatory compliance as well as the measurement of the organization's ability to manage security against an acceptable baseline is critical to the safeguarding of the organization's valuable data assets," said Cliff Pollan, CEO of Lumigent. "Financial statements and human resources data are just two examples of the type of heavily regulated information created and managed within the Oracle Database. Organizations must take steps to proactively and continuously address security risk to these systems to avoid or minimize the overall impact of a potential security event."
Continuous assessment yields exception reports and alerts that identify drift from baseline enabling organizations to quickly respond to emerging threats to critical data.
Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database provides several industry-first capabilities for users of enterprise database deployments, including:
-- Security Performance Management(TM)--unlike static scanners that provide an unwieldy amount of raw data each time an assessment is run, leaving the user to manually derive changes and relevancy, Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle identifies new security issues as well as an organization's response to existing issues by establishing a security baseline from which both positive and negative change can be detected and easily managed. The result is reduced administration time and costs, and a concise, on-demand measurement of an organization's information security posture relative to their baseline goal for acceptable risk.
-- Customized Policy Management(TM)--Lumigent recognizes that every organization is unique. In addition to providing industry best practice information, Lumigent Vulnerability Manager 3.0 for Oracle Database provides the ability to customize and add policies relevant to each organization's unique environment, security policies and application implementation, thereby increasing the flexibility and granularity of the system while maximizing customer value.
