Foundstone Inc., a provider of security assessments and vulnerability protection, today announced availability of FoundScan 2.5 vulnerability management technology. FoundScan combines continuous, accurate, and comprehensive security assessments with vulnerability remediation management technology enabling organizations to find and fix holes before an attacker can exploit them.

``Finding vulnerabilities alone will not protect you. An organization must fix the problems found,'' said Stuart McClure, author of Hacking Exposed and CTO of Foundstone. ``That is why we built VulnTrak(TM), vulnerability workflow management technology into FoundScan, which automatically prioritizes and tracks flaws from identification through completion.'' ``Tracking vulnerabilities is an essential element of our overall program to manage threats to the company's networks and systems,'' said Bill Boni, CISO of Motorola. ``FoundScan helps prioritize our efforts so we focus our security resources on systematically eliminating the most important risks.''
