The Benefits of Securing Servers in the Network: Enhanced Security, Compliance and Operational Excellence
Category: Software and Web Development, Security
Tags: patch management, server, software, network, management
Overview Needing to implement a patch management solution to comply with SAS 70, Davidson found the solutions on the market lacking. They either required significant resources to test all patches, or were expensive automated solutions. Then, Davidson learned about Blue Lane Technologies, a concept that Davidson loved. Blue Lane corrects the traffic directed at a known vulnerability, providing the benefits of patching immediately after a vendor patch is released and without the need to hastily test or install server software patches. The result: enhanced server security and availability, and reduced operational expense. Finding Blue Lane's concept compelling, Davidson piloted Blue Lane with great results, and later deployed it across its network.
