nCircle debuts PureCloud security scanning technology

nCircle announced in collaboration with HITRUST the debut of PureCloud, a security scanning technology, and the integration of PureCloud into the HITRUST CSF Assessment for Small Organizations.

The HITRUST service is the first to incorporate nCircle’s new PureCloud scanning technology which eliminates the need for firewall changes and software or hardware deployment on a customer’s internal network.

Requiring only a Web browser, nCircle PureCloud securely scans a private network to assess it for a broad range of vulnerabilities and risks, and provides detailed guidance on the steps necessary to reduce or eliminate those risks.

The HITRUST CSF Assessment for Small Organizations, incorporating nCircle’s PureCloud, utilizes a simple wizard-based interface that anyone, regardless of IT security skill level, can use to maintain a healthy security posture across their entire network.

nCircle PureCloud delivers accurate information about all the vulnerabilities and weaknesses on a network and prioritizes those representing the highest risk with clear guidance on how to fix them. PureCloud enables the broadest discovery of networked systems and their operating systems, applications, vulnerabilities and configurations in the market today, discovering over 40,000 conditions.

“Through the collaboration with HITRUST, nCircle’s advanced solutions are now accessible by small organizations,” said Abe Kleinfeld, president and chief executive officer, nCircle. “These organizations can now cost effectively achieve enterprise class levels of IT security and compliance formerly available only to large organizations.”
