Butler Group Audit Recognizes SkyRecon’s Multi-Layered Defense Against Malware Attacks

18 Mar 2009
According to a recent Technology Audit from Butler Group, a UK-based provider of information technology research, SkyRecon Systems was found to offer a real-world solution for companies looking to address key data loss, data theft, and systems misuse issues that cause concern to all business operations.

According to the Butler Audit, “what many organizations are now identifying, and looking to address, are the support overheads, collective cost implications, and the lack of integration across wide-ranging sets of security products that is rapidly becoming unsustainable. SkyRecon, through the deployment of its StormShield Security Suite, has set out to deliver a set of integrated endpoint protection solutions that are relevant to the needs of the vast majority of modern business operations.”

Through Butler Group’s independent opinion and thought leadership, Technology Audits deliver in-depth analysis by reviewing a product’s functionality and service deliverables and expertise, deployment issues, and suitability for purpose. TA papers enable vendor’s products/services to be easily compared.

Key findings from the Butler audit demonstrate SkyRecon’s leadership in leveraging its world-class security research and its design as a single-client endpoint security solution from inception. The Butler Audit found that SkyRecon:
   •   Provides a single lightweight-client, single console-management solution
   •   Delivers a strong focus on data loss protection and data leakage prevention
   •   Provides an extensive range of collaborative endpoint security facilities
   •   Presents a multi-layered defense against malware attacks
   •   Offers a flexible and scalable solution that ranges from around 500 to over 90,000 seats

Additionally, the Butler Audit wrote that SkyRecon offers an “array of security protection facilities that cover the specific areas of Behavioural Security, Intrusion Prevention, Stateful Firewalling, Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware, Application Control, and Wireless Security. Its data protection services control device usage, network usage, application usage, file access, content encryption services, device encryption services, and the prevention of keylogging.”
