Cavirin Announces General Availability of Pulsar Continuous Security Compliance Platform at RSA 2017Cavirin Systems, Inc. today announces the general availability of Pulsar, its next generation security platform, which builds on Cavirin's successful ARAP (Automated Risk Analysis Platform) for an 80 percent decrease in the chance of breach and a 90 percent decrease in the cost of remediation. The Pulsar trial is available now and the Cavirin team will be showing demos at the RSA (News - Alert) Conference in San Francisco, February 13-17, at booth N4432. Based on an agentless, API-driven and scalable architecture, Pulsar offers the transparency required for enterprises to de-risk their cloud migrations by simplifying security configuration management and continuously checking their posture against known security baselines via a customized dashboard and workflow. "Pulsar provides automation of security and compliance at scale, which we require for our cloud deployments," said Steve Shead, VP of IT and security at SugarCRM (News - Alert). "The platform permits us to quickly identify any drift from our security baselines and then take corrective action." "Securing global cloud solutions is an area where there is still a lot of work to be done and I am pleased to see Cavirin's efforts with Pulsar," said Randy Barr, Cavirin technical advisory board. "Real-time security monitoring and continuous rsk assessment align with the speed of configuration changes that occur in a virtualized or container deployment. Pulsar minimizes the attack surface and clearly identifies policy drift."
