Centrify DirectControl

Centrify is a fairly young company, founded in 2004, but the problem its products seek to address goes back further than this. It is the perennial issue of providing an integrated and centralized approach to access control across disparate platforms, such as Windows, Unix, Linux and Mac. The issue is heightened by regulatory compliance obligations and associated audit requirements. Organizations with a large, mixed infrastructure can find themselves with a heavy workload in order to meet requirements in this context.

Our Best Buy award goes to Security Center Lite as we feel it will be very useful in providing an easy-to-deploy, user-friendly vulnerability scanning capability at an affordable price, thus allowing smaller and medium- sized organisations to benefit from this functionality. Furthermore, a 30- day trial is available, allowing potential users to develop an understanding of the product before committing to a purchase.

For our Recommended award Airmagnet Enterprise 7 stands out as an innovative and truly useful product, designed to bring a level of assurance to wireless LANs equivalent to that enjoyed by the wired variety. This will be particularly welcomed by many users and organisations who have been rather worried about the proliferation of wireless technology from a security perspective.
