- A Source for Vulnerability, Inventory, Patch Detection and Compliance
Verification Modules Served Through SecPod OVAL Repository
SecPod Technologies, a Bangalore, India based Information Security
company announces the release of OVAL Definitions Professional Feed.
(http://oval.secpod.com/) OVAL, (http://oval.mitre.org/) an Open
Vulnerability and Assessment Language, is an information security standard to
assess and report upon the machine state of computer systems, for the purpose
of vulnerability assessment, configuration management, patch management and
policy compliance.
The feed is available on a subscription model for both vendors
(Redistributable License) and end users (EULA). The feed covers majority of
the CVEs, including vulnerability and patch definitions, with daily updates
and enables automatic synchronization with product's repository.
"Security product vendors have a challenge to keep their products updated
with the checks necessary to detect the latest vulnerabilities, patches,
manage assets and their compliance to security policies", said
Chandrashekhar, CEO and Founder of SecPod Technologies. "This feed, backed
with professional support and driven through SLA will address the problem by
offering high quality security content in a standard format for easy
integration with vendor products. Additionally, end users who use freely
available OVAL Interpreter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/ovaldi/) can also
subscribe to the feed."
SecPod supports open source projects and standards as is also evident in
OpenVAS (http://www.openvas.net/) and pledges the support for OVAL in the
form of contribution to the publicly available OVAL Repository
(http://oval.mitre.org/repository/) and to the OVAL Interpreter, mainly
helping to evolve OVAL as a language. The public repository is a community
driven effort to promote OVAL standard and SecPod being one of the Top
Contributor (http://oval.mitre.org/repository/awards.html) to the repository
intends to continue the support going forward in tandem with the professional
feed.
