F-Secure RADAR in a nutshell
On 12 April 2017, F-Secure officially launched the F-Secure RADAR advanced security scanner in Malaysia. F-Secure RADAR treats ransomware as regular malware and tries to stop it through behavioural monitoring. This year’s F-Secure solutions have a fresh, new look and feel, dominated by white windows with light-blue and dark-blue accents. The main Status window has the obligatory checkmark in a green circle and an animated sweeping bar that looks like a radar screen.
The following is a brief summary of the new RADAR solution:
- It is a scalable enterprise-grade vulnerability scanning solution that allows for easier control and management of cyber security risks.
- It consists of three scanning engines – a port scanner, a vulnerability scanner, and a web application scanner
- Using those three scanning engines, it maps the security of all assets on the network, checks for vulnerabilities, and then provides customised reports.
- The scanning can be scheduled on an automated basis, usually once a month.
- The in-depth analysis from the scans allows for easier and better security management by the client.
- It can be installed as an on-site solution before the corporate firewall, or run as a secure cloud-based SaaS.
- It is automatically updated, improved and ready for third-party integration through the F-Secure RADAR API.
- F-Secure also offers F-Secure RADAR Managed Services which combines the F-Secure RADAR scanning solution with vulnerability management by F-Secure consultants.
