NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - June 14, 2010) - In response to Adobe's critical security vulnerability APSA10-01 for Adobe Flash, Reader, and Acrobat, Promisec is offering a free 40-minute audit using the Promisec Spectator agentless endpoint inspection tools. The audit will identify all computers running a vulnerable version of Adobe software in the organization's network.
Adobe warned that the vulnerability can cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take over an affected system. The warning mentioned reports that the vulnerability is being actively exploited. Adobe provided steps to remediate the error on affected computers. The free inspection from Promisec will serve organizations to quickly identify those computers which require remediation.
"As a company that cares deeply about enterprise security, we are making this offer in response to the Adobe vulnerability," said Roni Suchowski, CTO of Promisec. "We can identify exactly which computers are running vulnerable versions of Adobe software in approximately 5 seconds per computer. In most organizations, that means that within 20 minutes, IT managers can get a full list of every computer that needs attention."
Using its breakthrough agentless technology, Promisec can perform the inspection without installing any agents on the endpoints themselves. Enterprises who are interested will download the trial software, which can be installed on any PC connected to the network in minutes. From a single PC, using administrator privileges, Promisec Spectator can inspect every endpoint on the network. Organizations with upwards of 1000 endpoints are eligible for this trial. The trial will cover a single location of up to 10,000 endpoints.
Promisec's existing customers are advised to upgrade to INNERspace version 4.20 and order the Inventory Module for the appropriate tools to perform this scan.
