WHITEHAT SECURITY AND SECURVIEW PARTNER TO DELIVER WEBSITE SECURITY AS PART OF A COMPREHENSIVE MANAGED SECURITY SOLUTION
– Addition of WhiteHat Sentinel to SecurView Platform Provides Unique Offering of Security at Every Level of the Infrastructure –
SANTA CLARA, CA. and EDISON, NJ.– October 29, 2007 – WhiteHat Security and SecurView today announced that SecurView, a leading provider of risk assessment and managed security services, will integrate WhiteHat Sentinel into its managed services platform. Recognizing the growing prevalence of website security threats and issues, SecurView is the only Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) in the industry to offer ongoing website vulnerability assessment as part of a complete range of security services.
With the integration of WhiteHat Sentinel’s website vulnerability management platform into its MSSP platform, SecurView now offers customers security at all layers of the infrastructure including the network, server and publicly facing Web applications. The joint offering gives companies more control over their complete infrastructure and their Software Development Lifecyle (SDLC). The announcement comes on the heels of SecurView’s recent news of a strategic investment from Cisco Systems, Inc.
"SecurView is committed to providing an end-to-end managed security solution that focuses on monitoring every aspect of the client's infrastructure, from the network to the server to the application--from the perimeter to the core," said Rajeev Khanolkar, co-founder and president, SecurView. "While most MSSPs are still focused on reactive management, SecurView's vision entails providing more proactive security at every level of the stack. The addition of WhiteHat Sentinel to our portfolio of managing network and security devices is an important step in achieving that vision."
WhiteHat Sentinel is the most comprehensive, timely, and cost-effective way to gather and manage website vulnerability information for service providers and the enterprise. Sentinel is the only solution that integrates proprietary scanning technology and expert analysis into an iterative system that provides ongoing, scalable, complete website vulnerability management. The WhiteHat Sentinel Service is also the only solution that assesses for the 24 classes of vulnerabilities identified by the Web Application Security Consortium’s (WASC) threat classification, a critical component of comprehensive website security.
“With the number of website attacks increasing daily and 90 percent of all websites vulnerable, website vulnerability management has become a must-have component of an effective security program. We built Sentinel to be a scalable, easy-to-integrate technology platform that enables MSSPs to deliver critical website security information to their customers,” said Stephanie Fohn, chief executive officer, WhiteHat Security. “SecurView’s strategic decision to incorporate Sentinel in its offering underscores the need and expectation for MSSPs to protect their customers’ IT infrastructure, data and brand from attack at every level.”
