Kavado announced the integration of Symantec's Security Management System with Kavado's InterDo Web application firewall.
The integration, certified by Symantec through their Technology Partner Program, benefits customers by ensuring tighter and more efficient security processes, reduced operational costs and effective consolidation of security event data to comply with audit requirements.
Through the partnership, Web application security breaches and threat incidents identified and mitigated by InterDo are automatically relayed to the Symantec Incident Manager -- enabling administrators to more rapidly and simply analyze and address security threats. Customers can also correlate InterDo application security events with network security events to identify hackers using multiple methods to attack application and network infrastructure. This correlation eliminates "blind spots" between network and application security that hackers can use to penetrate an organization.
"Businesses are recognizing that there is significant security and regulatory vulnerability in the application layer that must be quickly addressed by their enterprise managed security infrastructure," said Vikram Desai, president and chief executive officer of Kavado. "Integrating the InterDo Web application firewall event data with the Symantec Security Management System provides customers with complete visibility into threats against their Web application infrastructure, as well as protection for their most critical corporate assets."
"The integration of Kavado's InterDo Web application firewall with Symantec Security Management System is a significant enhancement that will make it easier and more seamless for our mutual customers to look at and address security threats throughout their Web- and Web services-based applications," said Rowan Trollope, vice president, security management solutions of Symantec Corporation. "Application-layer security is becoming more and more strategic to our customers, and this will enable them to easily incorporate Kavado's solutions into enterprise security operations."
