Beyond Security (Acq. By HelpSystems)

Beyond Security develops automated security testing technologies that discover, report and manage the elimination of security vulnerabilities in networks, programs, hardware and web applications. Our three product lines align with the three major threat vectors faced by corporations and governments today. * Networks are more complicated and are required to be more open - at the same time security requirements have increased. Our Network Vulnerability Assessment solution, AVDS, automates the process of identifying every network resource, testing each for weaknesses, reporting vulnerabilities discovered with the industry's lowest false positive rate and providing a correction management system that integrates easily with existing management tools. * Software coding by teams, often outsourced, has become the norm and code quality control is threatened by tight budgets. Our code security testing fuzzer, beSTORM, utilizes 'smart fuzzing' and a unique method of learning proprietary protocols that have won it acclaim. * Web applications open up networks and their data to employees, prospects, customers and, unfortunately, attackers. Our hosted, automated web site and web application security tester, WSSA, is unique in that it tests both web applications and the servers upon which they are installed, effectively providing two tools for the price and effort of running one. In addition, WSSA often requires just a URL or IP address to complete deep testing while leaving the site or application and its users undisturbed.
