IT Security

SignaCert's ready-to-run compliance tests allow organizations to test against both internally defined security standards as well as current and evolving industry and government regulatory requirements.

Today's IT organizations face an ever increasing number of security threats to the infrastructure running their critical business services, even as IT administrators are tasked with streamlining and aligning IT business processes to attain greater efficiency at reduced costs. Additionally, audit and regulatory compliance requirements demand strict adherence to security standards such as CIS and PCI. Rapidly detecting and identifying malicious software and insecure system configurations is a critical component of achieving these goals.

SignaCert solutions combine powerful change detection capabilities with enterprise specific and commercial software whitelists to enable IT organizations to definitively categorize software changes as known or malicious. The comprehensive whitelist enables accurate forensic analysis of all software residing on one or more systems, including detailed vendor, version and patch level information. With the addition of SignaCert's flexible, ready-to-run compliance templates, the security posture of IT systems can be instantly tested against major audit and regulatory standards to determine compliance to stated security policies.

SignaCert solutions include ready-to-run reports providing both the summary and detailed information required to instantly prove that critical business services are deployed securely and as intended.

With Solaris 10 we have built in a number of technologies such as Solaris Containers, Least Privilege and Labeling to allow our customers to build secure applications and services. SignaCert's approach is a fine complement to our Secure Execution technology, allowing customers to proactively validate heterogeneous environments.
