KaVaDo's InterDo Web Application Firewall Certified as Addamark Proven
SAN FRANCISCO and NEW YORK CITY – February 9, 2004 - Addamark Technologies, the vanguard of a new Data Management system for regulatory compliance, and KaVaDo™ Inc., an award winning leader in Web application security software, today announced the certification of the InterDo Web Application Firewall into the Addamark Proven program. The program is designed for complementary technology providers who recognize the need for historical analysis and reporting to extend their value to customers.
KaVaDo's InterDo protects Web applications against known and emerging threats by surrounding each application with tailored security shields to block intrusions. Addamark Omnisight™ enables enterprises to meet information security regulatory compliance by aggregating voluminous amounts of log data from disparate sources and storing it through unique compression technology that allows for easy queries and access. This partnership provides customers with a proven solution for not only mitigating a common and dangerous class of threats against their Web infrastructures, but also provides the historical analysis and reporting necessary to attain regulatory compliance and perform thorough incident response and investigations.
“Web application protection is a critical component of any security strategy, but it is also critical to understand the knowledge obtained from analysis of the activity detected and blocked by the InterDo firewall,” said Ben Campbell, vice president at KaVaDo. “Addamark Omnisight provides an excellent, cost effective way to collect, retain and analyze this information, within the context of gigabytes of other information generated across an enterprise.”
“KaVaDo's InterDo Web Application Firewall is a critical component of a defense in depth strategy for any business with a Web presence,” said Mark Searle, CEO, Addamark. “As with any access control mechanism, it generates activity logs which can provide critical insight into hostile activity or insider abuse in an enterprise. Because of this importance, these logs should be retained and reviewed according to firewall log standards and information security regulations.”
