Risk Management System Supports Compliance Reporting for Web Applications Security

Security Event Reporting on All Applications Protected by Kavado's "Defiance TMS"

(11.05.05) - Kavado announced its new "Risk Management System", "Defiance RMS", which provides business and security managers with security event reporting on all applications protected by Defiance TMS, Kavado's enterprise-class threat management system. Managers have access to one-click reports for event analysis, executive summaries and administrative auditing, allowing enterprises to continuously improve application-layer security policies while managing requirements for government regulations such as GLBA, HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, and the European Union Data Protection Directive.

Defiance RMS is a key component of Kavado's Defiance TMS solution, which is now generally available. Defiance TMS is the first enterprise-class threat management system to secure large-scale, distributed deployment of Web applications and Web services. Based on new patent-pending technology, Defiance TMS introduces application-layer intrusion detection and prevention that work seamlessly together to detect threats, generate alerts, and block internal and external attacks to critical corporate and customer data across the enterprise.

Defiance TMS is comprised of four major components:

· Defiance Monitor detects threats at the application layer

· Defiance Gateway stops hacker attacks at the application layer

· Defiance Security Console provides unified administration and management

· Defiance RMS (Risk Management System) enables in-depth reporting and forensics. (Kavado: ra)
