Security Lighthouse Version 5


AMPEG Security Lighthouse is a vendor-independent, cross-console monitoring application for Security Level Management. It empowers security officers at medium to large-sized enterprises, public enterprises, and government agencies to establish quality assurance in IT security and increase its efficiency at the same time.

 

Security Lighthouse is characterised by the following:

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Comprehensive monitoring and reporting for
   security applications including patch
   management, virus protection, anti-spam
   and vulnerability management

   |--teaserarrow.gif  All relevant information from the security
   solutions is available in close to real-time.
   The amount of work involved in preparing
   long-term analyses and ad hoc reports on
   the current security status is reduced to a
   minimum

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Flexible, customizable Dashboards provide all
   security officers, and, if required, process
   owners with targeted access to information
   relevant to security

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Security Information Map: Helicopter view of the
   nationwide security status signalised by
   traffic light colours

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Permanent verification of the security level at your company by comparing the results with definable
   threshold and limiting values, in order to increase the quality of the protection level

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Early and targeted identification of weak spots to quickly establish the requisite security level, and
   therefore minimise the residual risk

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Safeguarding of business processes by verifying the compliance status of the systems
   incorporated

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Analysis of the security status according to criticality, protection category of the IT system or
   assignment to a business process

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Verification of the efficiency of technical measures and calculation of key performance indicators
   for the continual optimization of IT security

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Sharing information: current and focussed information can be passed on to security officers

   |--teaserarrow.gif  Minimum implementation effort:, also because agents do not have to be rolled out
 

 

Positioning : Binding link between security management and the security operation.

Security management and the security operation are being presented with enormous challenges: Reconciling security policies against legal provisions and the actual safety requirement and creating a suitable catalogue of actions, which it should also be possible to verify. To be added to this the parallel use of several security solutions from different software houses, that are maintained and receive support from different departments in widely distributed locations.

The various security systems employed make achieving a standardised and up-to-date overview of the security status for all the computer systems in the corporate network nearly impossible. A lack of transparency exists. Security gaps remain undiscovered and the risk of weak spots being compromised increases.

AMPEG Security Lighthouse provides the remedy for this: It collects all relevant information from the security system implemented across the company and prepares it for analysis in a clearly structured management view. Business processes and systems defined as critical can be monitored precisely. Security management, administrators and process owners receive an up-to-date view of the security status at the company - worldwide and in close to real-time.




AMPEG Security Lighthouse is a component in the quality assurance process.


Measurable aims for IT security are determined by threshold and limiting values being stored as target specifications in the rule type. This allows the security management team and the security officer to review aims on a continuous basis and derive measures for continually improving IT security.


Reduced effort

At the same time AMPEG Security Lighthouse reduces the amount of work needed to generate analyses and reports to a minimum. Companies can identify weak spots in the network much more quickly and gain time in taking up suitable measures.

Security Lighthouse verifies the work performed by all employees involved in IT security without bursting the bank.


Risk minimisation with very little implementation effort

The reduced effort in implementing Security Lighthouse makes the improvement in transparency
and the targeted conversion of security measures resulting from this even more attractive.
