Systematic vulnerability scanning
With VAM's systematic, scheduled scanning, you'll never be blindsided by catastrophic vulnerabilities or the attacks that exploit them. Custom scan policies and schedules let you keep a close eye on your critical assets, like web servers, financial systems, and network infrastructure, which you may want to scan hourly, while being less strict with your endpoints and non-critical machines, which can be automatically scanned weekly or monthly.
And when that new vulnerability is announced that can supposedly destroy the world by this afternoon, you can launch VAM's on-demand scanning capability to immediately determine if and where you're vulnerable.
Taking inventory
VAM maps your network on regular schedule, uncovering any rogue devices and giving you an up-to-date inventory of everything out there. As part of this 'discovery' process, VAM fingerprints each device, identifying the OS, available hosts, ports, and applications. Vulnerability scans then leverage this information, applying only the relevant scan rules from VAM's 8000+ rule set, minimizing impact to the network. In other words, VAM knows better than to check for Windows® hotfixes on a Cisco® router.

Up-to-the-minute protection
New scan rules are continually being added to the test library by StillSecure's Security Alert Team™ (SAT), protecting you from the notorious zero-day threat. You can also easily create custom rules to meet organization-specific needs.
