San Francisco, CA, May 20, 2010 -- nCircle, the leader in security and complianc
e auditing solutions, today announced the nCircle Perimeter Profiler™, a cloud-b
ased virtualized appliance that enables organizations to assess their internet-f
acing assets from an external perspective. Perimeter Profiler extends the reach
of nCircle IP360™ to include external assets and their related network, operatin
g system and web application vulnerabilities. This perspective is the same publi
c view of the organization’s assets that attackers have and provides crucial int
elligence to proactively reduce enterprise risk.
The Perimeter Profiler is part of nCircle IP360™, nCircle’s market-leading vulne
rability and risk management solution, giving customers a 360 degree view – insi
de and out – of their network. And because it is fully integrated, customers get
a consolidated view of their entire network using the same objective metrics to
measure their external security as they use with their internal security. Perim
eter Profiler connects to the IP360 central console just like a hardware Device
Profiler appliance, so there is nothing new to learn; the Perimeter Profiler ena
bles customers to connect a cloud-based, virtualized instance into their existin
g IP360 deployment within minutes.
"In today’s sophisticated threat environment, enterprises are looking for a thor
ough assessment of their network, inside and out, with consistent measurement an
d consolidated reporting,” said Alex Quilter, Senior Product Line Manager at nCi
rcle. “nCircle Perimeter Profiler delivers, offering a cloud-based virtualized a
ppliance that is easy to deploy, easy to manage and integrates with customers’ e
xisting nCircle IP360 vulnerability management system."
