Vulnerability Management

Ninety per cent of cyber attacks exploit known security flaws according to Gartner Research. New flaws are discovered daily. Web servers, databases, routers, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and every other element of an enterprise system are always at risk. The countless hours that are required to keep up to date on all of the security issues affecting corporate IT infrastructures are beyond many organizations' skills and resources. But the result of not fixing these flaws can be catastrophic. Polar Cove monitors more than 250 security information sources daily. We don't want our clients to miss new, or even developing, vulnerabilities.

Polar Cove's vigilance allows us to apply security discoveries to our clients' specific IT architectures. This ensures those companies' interior networks, hosts, routers, operating systems, and servers take timely advantage of the latest patches and advisories and know about the vulnerabilities that are being tested or uncovered. Polar Cove's vigilant Vulnerability Management Services monitor vendors' sites, bug-track lists, discussion sites, and even hacker chat rooms and newsletters.

In summary, Polar Cove's Vulnerability Management Service offers the opportunity to fix security flaws before they do harm.
