Configuration Assessment: Eliminating a Critical Attack Vector
As security professionals know first-hand, making a system secure and keeping it secure are two entirely different things. For information security professionals, change control is the key to ensuring that systems remain consistently configured, minimizing this "low-hanging fruit" of attack vectors that can easily compromise an otherwise secure network. Unfortunately, change control isn't always followed: from "emergency" patches and application updates that circumvent change control, to users installing potentially damaging code such as peer-to-peer software, to malware and trojans unintentionally downloaded from websites, security teams have their hands full when it comes to systems drifting into the world of insecure configuration.
