The cost of security breaches, both internal and external, have risen exponentially in the past few years with the introduction of regulations such as the Grahm-Leech Bliley Act and The Sarbanes-Oxley Act adding possible sanctions to the already high cost of lost customer confidence and hard dollar losses. Add the possibility of other ramifications by clients, vendors and investors and the cost skyrocket, yet the total cost of ownership of any tool must be weighed against the potential return or savings. Maxpatrol was designed to have an extremely low TCO raising the value it provides to an organization.
For Instance:
Update Engine
Updates are cost effective and well maintained meaning the time needed for personnel to download, install and maintain the versions of the product is eliminated. This aspect alone often makes the TCO of Maxpatrol as low, if not lower than less reliable open source tools.
High Quality Scans with Extremely Low False Positives
The high quality of results presented by Maxpatrol combined with a low instance of false positives means personnel is not hunting down "ghost services", non existent vulnerabilities, drafting unnecessary documents or spending unnecessary funds on consultants saving both valuable time and money.
Exceptionally Easy to Understand Reports
By providing well documented results, references and suggested fixes for detected vulnerabilities the time to complete audits and perform fixes id drastically reduced.
Automation of Common Tasks
The ability of users to define templates or use predefined templates combined with a robust scheduling engine allows the benefits of "Set It And Forget" Scanning.
Ease of Use
Although Maxpatrol features excellent scanning and reporting quality the elegant and efficient interface means less time learning how to use the tool and more time actually using it.
Integration
Maxpatrol can be easily and quickly integrated into existing security infrastructures and custom integration with devices, such as Cisco Routers, Firewalls and Switches to expedite scanning and, yet again, increase reliability.
