NetWitness Launches Insight Solution for IT Risk Discovery and Remediation
HERNDON, Va., June 8 -- NetWitness Corporation, the provider of the award-winning NextGen network security solution, today announced the availability of NetWitness InSight, an innovative solution for automated risk discovery and remediation for workstations and servers. NetWitness InSight improves upon current risk assessment methodologies by both discovering sensitive data on host systems across the enterprise and concurrently evaluating the security condition of each system.
InSight's combined data discovery and risk exposure analysis provide automated, reproducible and scalable metrics to security, audit and compliance staffs containing the clarity they need to prioritize and mitigate risk in a cost-effective and sensible way. InSight provides three critically important functions for government and private sector IT professionals:
1) Fast, accurate identification of the location of sensitive, proprietary and regulated data on host systems;
2) Assessment of the likelihood of exploitation of the systems on which their most important data resides;
3) Tools that help these organizations prioritize and execute risk remediation efforts on the most critical systems.
The launch of InSight broadens NetWitness' capabilities from network-based advanced network monitoring and threat intelligence to include an end-to-end focus on enterprise-wide risk discovery, prioritization and reduction.
"Some of the world's largest organizations have been telling us that our NextGen offerings provide the deepest level of knowledge and visibility into advanced threats across their networks, and they have been asking for a complementary solution that can address their broader IT risk requirements," said Nick Lantuh, President of NetWitness. "With the introduction of InSight, we can now provide our customers with the deepest view into exactly where their sensitive data resides, helping them to quickly identify which systems are most vulnerable and what fixes need to be prioritized."
NetWitness InSight is a single technology, based on a fully-customizable framework which simplifies the process of performing enterprise risk management. InSight scours through servers and workstations looking for sensitive, proprietary, and regulated data. Simultaneously, InSight leverages the industry standard Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) to evaluate compliance with security policies, configuration standards, and to find vulnerabilities and other security flaws that represent exposure to that data. By combining the impact of data loss and the likelihood of exploitation, InSight's unique approach provides a logical and defensible risk metric system that shows organizations where to prioritize their remediation efforts and how to focus on the data protection problems that matter most. This capability permits IT, security, audit, and compliance teams to automate the isolation and removal of sensitive or regulated information from systems where it should not reside.
"NetWitness has proven itself as a clear innovator in the network security space with its NextGen solution, providing threat intelligence and visibility that could not be found in other products," stated Michael Monticello, Principal Analyst, Enterprise Management Associates. "At the host-security level, security staffs still struggle to create a sensible and measurable data protection strategy that prioritizes security program activity according to the highest risk to the enterprise. The NetWitness InSight model provides an opportunity for organizations to discover where their sensitive data reside, and which assets are most likely to be compromised."
NetWitness InSight is available immediately. For more information, please visit: www.netwitness.com.
