Cierra Business Solutions’ Vulnerability and Configuration Management solutions provide automated, multi-platform protection and policy compliance. These products enable you to turn vulnerability management from a time-consuming project to a routine business process that leverages your existing staff and infrastructure. Our Vulnerability & Configuration Management solutions:

Continuously audit for policy exceptions, vulnerabilities and exposures using security configuration      baselines based on policies, standards or best practices.
Eliminate uncoordinated manual processes with centralized management and control.
Provide metrics for security and compliance using scored assessments at every level of your      business.
Enhance the security of specific platforms and applications beyond their native capabilities, such as      locking down network services on UNIX and iSeries and shielding web servers such as IIS, Apache      and Sun ONE.

Cierra Business Solutions provides the broadest security solutions available, enabling you to secure Windows, UNIX, Linux, NetWare and iSeries platforms — from operating systems to the web servers and databases that run on them.

Cierra Business Solutions utilizes NetIQ's VigilEnt Security Manager Suite (VigilEnt Security Manager) to proactively secure systems by assessing policy compliance, identifying security vulnerabilities and helping you correct exposures before they result in failed audits, security breaches or costly downtime. VigilEnt Security Manager enables you to centralize vulnerability management across heterogeneous systems quickly and easily while saving substantial staff time.

Today's IT-enabled businesses depend on the enterprise’s ability to assess and secure a wide range of platforms including operating systems (Windows, UNIX, Linux, NetWare/NDS, iSeries), database management systems (Oracle, Sybase, SQL Server) and web servers (IIS, Apache, Sun ONE, iPlanet). From VigilEnt Security Manager's easy-to-use central console you can manage virtually every component of a highly distributed, heterogeneous IT security environment - for once, you will have the metrics you need to improve the management of your technical security on an enterprise scale!

Cierra Business Solutions also uses NetIQ's Security Analyzer as a flexible, enterprise-scale vulnerability assessment product for Windows platforms that protects your systems from costly downtime and security breaches. This industry-leading product scans computers in your network for vulnerabilities, providing reports that help you correct problems and comply with company security policies. The extensible architecture and flexible deployment options make Security Analyzer your best choice among enterprise vulnerability assessment tools.
