SaltStack was also named a 2020 SC Awards Excellence Award finalist in the category of “Best Enterprise Security Solution.”
In addition, this week at RSA Conference 2020, SaltStack Comply was named a Silver winner in the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards.
Marc Chenn, SaltStack CEO, said, “SaltStack helps security operations teams deliver cyber hygiene for production infrastructure through continuous compliance and vulnerability remediation solutions. The SC Awards and Cybersecurity Excellence Awards are further validation of unique and differentiated SaltStack innovation in SecOps and DevSecOps. Real infrastructure security starts with developers and secure code and continues with IT operations and security teams through day zero deployment and ongoing maintenance. We are proud to provide security operations teams with the automation and collaboration they need to secure infrastructure at scale.”
SaltStack Comply, which provides continuous compliance for SaltStack customers, offers access to a live and growing repository of industry-validated compliance profiles including CIS Benchmarks. Each profile includes hundreds of up-to-date policy definitions, scans, and automated remediation actions leveraging SaltStack configuration management and infrastructure automation capabilities. Security and IT operations customers can also create jobs for review and approval before changes are executed. SaltStack integrates directly with third-party systems like ServiceNow for change management and control.
SaltSack Protect delivers active, fully automated vulnerability remediation for IT security teams. SaltStack Protect actively ingests CVEs then scans and executes remediation workflows to fix any discovered issues and vulnerabilities. SaltStack customers receive vulnerability content as a service so security operations teams can easily use SaltStack configuration automation to check installed package versions on all systems, identify vulnerabilities, and install patches to remediate.
Thomas Hatch, SaltStack CTO, said, “We’re proud to claim SaltStack is first to deliver real infrastructure security, not just awareness, by taking action on the volumes of vulnerability and compliance data compiled by security teams and their tools. The SaltStack team believes deeply that automation and collaboration for SecOps teams drastically improves cyber security for digital businesses. This validation from our peers compels us to continue to innovate and change cyber security for good.”
