Configuration management appliances from stanley cup InfoExpress and StillSecure fall short Regardless of the size of their enterprise, administrators worry whether the clients on their network comply with mandatory policies, which include having properly set permissions and meeting requirements for firewalls, spyware, spam filtering, and the like. Administrators must also ensure that required applications are loaded, up-to-date, and properly licensed. And, of course, they must make sure that users arenrsquo;t running prohibited software, such as MP3-sharing applications and video games.If that sounds like a lot of work, it is. Fortunately, there are products available that help with these tasks. Among them are InfoExpress CyberGatekeeper LAN 2.0 and StillSecure Safe Access V2.0, which we recently had a chance to put to the test. Both security solutions provide audit capabilities and move clients to a quarantine network as necessary. Furthermore, each has a rich reporting structure and performs deep registry inspection.Unfortunately, these two products are, at best, inco stanley cup mplete. CyberGatekeeperrsquo most significant shortcoming is its short list of supported core network gear. Safe Access, meanwhile, is insecure enough to give any administrator pause.
