Tripwire IP360 now discovers more than 200,000 conditions
Tripwire, a leading global provider of security and compliance solutions for enterprises and industrial organizations, announced that vulnerability management solution Tripwire IP360 now discovers more than 200,000 conditions, including vulnerabilities, configurations, applications and operating systems.
Tripwire provides comprehensive coverage of conditions, a state-of-the-art lab, unwavering attention to the changing threat environment, and timely vulnerability intelligence through the Tripwire Vulnerability and Exposure Research Team (VERT). By identifying emerging vulnerabilities, Tripwire VERT is able to create unique detection signatures, which are constantly updated in the company’s vulnerability and risk management solutions, to deliver unprecedented vulnerability discovery coverage and remediation guidance.
Tripwire VERT has provided organizations with effective and timely coverage for some of the most serious vulnerabilities in products from vendors like Microsoft, Adobe, and more.
“Because Tripwire IP360 reports on all aspects of the host and not just the vulnerabilities, businesses can respond rapidly to the constantly evolving threat landscape,” said Tyler Reguly, manager of VERT. “Knowing exactly which applications are installed on a particular host means organizations can identify vulnerable hosts as soon as a new vulnerability is announced. There’s no need to wait on your vendor or run a new scan since the data is ready immediately. This unique feature provides game-changing capabilities.”
Recent updates include expanded coverage into various Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) protocols such as Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT), and Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) as well as improved authenticated scanning for platforms like Cisco IOS and SUSE Enterprise Linux. Full support for Alpine Linux, as well as the ability to find vulnerabilities within Docker containers, is included in the new coverage released.
Recent coverage updates include:
- IBM Tivoli product line
- Kubernetes
- Cisco ASA
- Microsoft SharePoint Server 2019
- Microsoft Exchange 2019
- OpenSSH for Windows
- Dropbox
- VirtualBox
