GFI has announced that one of the best products they make is now available for free for small businesses. As a member of the Elite Technology Team at GFI, I’ve been testing this software. It works as advertised.
There just hasn’t been an affordable security scanner for the SMB consultant to use. Not only does this product scan but it also remediates. Yep, when an issue is discovered you have the KB article and patch available right now at the click of a button to fix the issue. This is going to make my job a lot easier.
There are 3 main components to the software:
Vulnerability Scanning: 15,000+ vulnerability assessments are made across multiple platforms (Windows, Mac OS, Linux) including Virtual Machines.
Patch Management and Remediation: Speaks for itself really. If you are missing a patch it offers to download and install it.
Network and Software Auditing: Network and software auditing tells you exactly what’s on the LAN and what software it’s running. There are a lot of customizable reports to help you explain to the client where the problems are and how you would like to remediate them.
