Lumension Endpoint Protection Solutions Awarded 5-Star Product Review Ratings by SC Magazine

Lumension’s Endpoint Protection Solution Lauded in Technical Review for its Return-on-Investment, Seamless Integration and Ease-of-Use

Scottsdale, AZ, Aug. 2, 2010

Lumension today announced that its solution for medium and large-sized enterprises, Lumension® Endpoint Protection, which is comprised of Lumension® Device Control, Lumension® Application Control and Lumension® AntiVirus, has been recognized with 5-star product ratings by SC Magazine. 

In its technical review, SC Magazine lauded Lumension Endpoint Protection for its excellent integration with existing environments and wealth of features and benefits available across application control, device control and threat management capabilities. With Lumension’s Endpoint Protection suite, organizations can prevent known and unknown malware as well as centrally manage, monitor and control applications. By employing an application whitelisting approach, users can ensure that only authorized applications are allowed to run on laptops, PCs, mission-critical servers and POS terminals, preventing the execution of unknown or malicious code.

With Lumension Endpoint Protection, operational desktop management is improved by eliminating unnecessary support calls and performance issues that come with managing unauthorized and illegal software. And, you can easily demonstrate compliance by enforcing software license policies and by providing a detailed audit trail of all application execution attempts. In addition, with Lumension Device Control capabilities, also available as part of the Lumension® Endpoint Protection suite, users can easily enforce organization-wide usage policies for removable devices, removable media, and data. Using a “default deny” approach, administrators can centrally manage devices and data, allowing organizations to embrace productivity-enhancing tools while limiting the potential for data leakage and its impact.

SC Magazine also recognized Lumension’s product for its simple installation process, superior protection features and product documentation, saying the product is “a great value for the money and customer can also purchase any of the three components separately depending on their needs, which provides flexibility.”

“We are thrilled to be recognized by SC Magazine for our superior endpoint security offerings, it further validates what we are hearing from customers, that organizations are looking for a seamless view of everyone accessing or attempting to access the network through corporate endpoints from a device and application perspective,” said chairman and CEO of Lumension, Pat Clawson. “Our continued philosophy is that security efforts should proactively stay one step ahead of emerging threats, not simply react to them and Lumension’s Endpoint Security solutions have been integral components to this approach, keeping customer’s sensitive information safe from both external and internal threats.”

The recent 5-star ratings follow a string of recent positive reviews of Lumension corporate products. This includes a 4-star rating by SC Magazine of Lumension® Scan, a component of the larger Lumension® Vulnerability Management suite that is a complete standalone, network-based scanner that performs a comprehensive scan of all devices connected to the network.
