FireEye, a U.S. computer safety firm, announced the purchase of Verodin–a leader in safety check efficiency assessment–for $250 million.
Through this procedure, the Helix Threat Analytics platform of FireEye can incorporate fresh characteristics and recognize those security holes left open by IT system settings mistakes, changes in the environment itself, as well as the evolution of attacker strategies.
"Currently, IT security is based on assumptions: technology works as suppliers declare, products are correctly installed and configured, procedures are fully efficient and environmental changes are properly understood, conveyed and enforced. However, for almost all organisations, truth is very distinct and often only found after a breach," says Chris Key, co-founderof IT security. This is why cautious clients turn to red-team operations for their corporate networks to clarify the efficiency. Of their programs of safety. Verodin offers us the opportunity to automate the efficiency tests by means of advanced assaults, to which we generally devote hundreds of thousands of hours, thus offering a systematic, quantifiable and constant attitude to the validation of safety programs,-said "Kevin Mandia, CEO of FireEye-" We think that there is no better way to train individuals and safety instruments than Finally, organisations will have a reliable and coherent way to quantify IT risk in a manner that both frontline engineers and the board can understand.
