To ensure that
a network remains secure, it is important to regularly
test and monitor the state of security preparation. Network
vulnerability scanners can proactively identify areas
of weakness, and intrusion detection systems can monitor
and respond to security events as they occur. Using security-monitoring
solutions, organizations can obtain unprecedented visibility
into both the network data stream and the security posture
of the network.
Security and misuse assessments can be provided on a one-time
or recurring basis. Network integrity, overall security,
local/foreign misuse, and specific violations/vulnerabilities
can all be checked. Findings can be provided in multiple
reports geared towards specific employees (i.e. executive,
end-user, and technical reports).
