Among the other features of the new NetIQ suite are compliance scanning for regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley and HIPPA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996), coordinated reporting and logging, and correlated alerts that can be designed to warn IT staff of specific security events or combinations of events.
The suite's components support all major operating systems -- including Windows, Linux, Unix, NetWare, and others -- said McGrath, as well as major anti-virus software, routers, Web servers, and databases.
A price for the bundle suite has not yet been set, said McGrath.
Unlike other security firms that have seen an uptick in sales as vulnerabilities and threats overwhelm businesses, NetIQ's most recent quarterly statement showed a 16.5 percent drop in revenues over the same quarter in 2003.
McGrath thinks that products from his group can help turn that around. "We've seen a lot of traction in the security product group," claimed McGrath.
To realize the benefits of cloud-native software, an application must actually be cloud-native—designed to run in the cloud, interacting with disaggregated cloud services, fully manageable as code—to deliver the expected benefits.
By combining resources and expertise, the AI-Enabled ICT Workforce Consortium will offer a blueprint for how industries can adapt to an AI-dominated future.
IT leaders should heed the guidance of cybersecurity insurance providers who think businesses should prioritize security education, incident preparedness, regular internal audits, and ongoing vulnerability scanning and patching.
