BELARC WHITE PAPERS
Belarc currently has the following white papers in circulation:
"Automating the FISMA Process", describes how automated systems such as BelSecure can help U.S. Federal government agencies comply with the FISMA security process.
"IT as a Utility - Recommendations for Success", outlines the critical elements to have in place for a managed services contract, from the customer's point of view.
"PC Management for the Internet Age", describes the advantages of using an Intranet based architecture for PC Management.
"Policy Management vs. Vulnerability Scanning", offers a comparison between these two, often complementary, ways that IT managers can help secure their systems. Vulnerability scanning products test for known vulnerabilities. Policy management products are pro-active by locking the doors in advance of a possible attack.
"Security Within™ - Configuration based Security", describes the reasons for a configuration-based monitoring system in addition to your existing perimeter security systems, such as anti-virus and firewalls.
"System Management for the new Enterprise environment", outlines the case of an IT Portal architecture to meet the new requirements placed on today's Enterprise IT management. These requirements include IT security; corporate governance and compliance (Sarbanes-Oxley, FISMA, HIPAA, FFIEC); managing major outsourcing contracts; and working as a team with a geographically distributed organization.
