In securing networks and digital assets, government agencies face challenges beyond those encountered by the private sector. With the heightened government-wide emphasis on security, agencies must:

  • Achieve and demonstrate compliance—FISMA, DoD IAVA, Homeland Security, and other info security regulations are driving regulatory and policy compliance initiatives.
  • Increase situational awareness and provide actionable intelligence—Security information must be shared among organizational units and be made available where and when it’s needed in real time.
  • Dynamically manage network security across tightly defined organizational structures.
  • Assure stakeholders that systems are secure—Agencies must prove to legislators, regulators, and the American people that their networks are securely managed and maintained.

Government computer systems are attractive targets for hackers and terrorists. As public-sector IT professionals know, it is not a question of if you’re getting attacked, it is a question of detecting when attacks have been launched, which attacks present legitimate threats, and how to avoid or mitigate damage.

The integrated StillSecure® suite of network security solutions allows agencies to comply with applicable regulations, take preventative measures to eliminate network weaknesses, and protect critical systems from terrorists, hackers, and others with malicious intent. The StillSecure suite includes:

StillSecure VAM™ — VAM finds, tracks, and manages the repair of vulnerabilities on network devices. The thousands of servers, network infrastructure devices, and endpoints connected to agency networks introduce tens or even hundreds of thousands of vulnerabilities. VAM finds vulnerabilities through systematic scanning, prioritizes them based on criticality and device importance, and manages their repair through the exclusive VAM Vulnerability Repair Workflow™. Additionally, through the VAM Integration Framework™, VAM imports/exports data from/to other security-related IT systems, including trouble ticketing systems, patch managers, third-part scanners, etc. Through the Integration Framework, VAM serves as a centralized command control center for all vulnerability management activities.

StillSecure Safe Access™ — An endpoint policy compliance solution, Safe Access tests both agency-owned and ‘foreign’ endpoints for compliance with your security policy and prohibits non-compliant machines from accessing and harming the network. Through flexible agent-less, agent-based, and ActiveX testing methods, Safe Access ensures that laptops, desktops, and other endpoint devices will not become a conduit for attack or continually infect or re-infect the network.

StillSecure Strata Guard™ — Awarded "Best of 2004" by SC Magazine, the Strata Guard intrusion detection/prevention (IDPS) system identifies and terminates viruses, worms, trojans, port scans, attacks, and intrusions before they enter the network and cause real damage. By eliminating false-positives, Strata Guard allows you to focus on only the attacks that pose real threats to the organization. More about Strata Guard >>

More so than in the private sector, government agencies are under the microscope, and they are a tempting target for those with malicious intent. Agencies must secure complex, highly accessible networks and comply with stringent regulations and policies. The integrated StillSecure suite offers an affordable enterprise-class solution to secure this challenging environment.
