Dell SecureWorks takes security solutions to the cloud
Dell SecureWorks has launched vulnerability management and web application scanning services for Dell PublicCloud customers, as well as Dell Cloud Dedicated Service and VMware vCenter 5.0 environments.
In addition, Dell SecureWorks plans to offer cloud customers what it calls a Global Threat Intelligence Service that offers analysis of security data points for vulnerabilities, emerging threats and new "adversary activity," according to Dell, Round Rock, Texas.
The offerings are the first in a series of security solutions that Dell plans to launch in coming months. Dell acquired SecureWorks a year ago to expand its footprint in the managed security space. "Dell already employs Dell SecureWorks' ... security services to protect the infrastructure of its cloud data centre. Now we are extending three of our key security solutions to cloud customers so they can feel confident that their cloud-based applications and services are protected from the latest cyberthreats," said Mark Wood, product manager for Dell SecureWorks Cloud Security Services, in a statement.
