A security breach can cost a company millions of dollars and have a tremendous negative impact on the company's public image and customer trust. Symantec’s Threat and Vulnerability Management Program provides organizations with a framework for processing and prioritizing security intelligence to proactively combat threats and vulnerabilities before they become incidents.

Challenges

Organizations are facing an increasing number of security threats today that could infect their internal network and result in loss of availability and data integrity. This translates into business disruption in the form of financial and productivity loss. It can also mean a loss of customer confidence and failure to comply with industry and government regulations.

Yet, the sheer mass of newly issued and updated vulnerability and threat information can overwhelm administrators and keep them from reacting effectively, especially if there are no repeatable processes and workflows available to help prioritize remediation efforts.

Solutions

Symantec’s Threat and Vulnerability Management Program provides your enterprise with a platform that provides a knowledgebase of vulnerabilities, malicious code, exploits and fixes, enhanced notification, and workflow. It also enables detailed reporting on threat and vulnerability activities, with an auditable trail and metrics to show effectiveness and due care to demonstrate compliance.

The Symantec solution begins with an assessment to compare your environment to security best practices. After a complete evaluation, our consultants design a program that offers an optimum level of protection for your business needs, budget, and risk tolerance. Once a design is agreed upon, Symantec works closely with your team to efficiently implement the Symantec Threat and Vulnerability Management Program framework. Our consultants can train your staff to manage the program or provide continuous onsite management with a Symantec resident consultant.
