Poorly configured or mis-configured systems are the “low-hanging fruit” that most entices malicious attackers and malware. From weak password settings and incorrect file system access controls, to running applications and services with known vulnerabilities, security professionals spend an inordinate amount of time tracking down and eliminating one-off configurations that can expose an otherwise secure network to major threats.

Security professionals can address this critical threat by implementing standard, “security hardened” configurations. SecureVue from EiQ Networks delivers a complete solution for configuration auditing against a broad range of prescriptive security standards, including:

CIS Benchmarks

Fortunately, the Center for Internet Security (CIS) has established a series of secure configuration benchmarks to provide comprehensive, detailed security controls for enterprise systems. The standards cover an extremely diverse range of systems, and when applied, result in a security-hardened configuration that eliminates common system-related attack vectors.
