Pwnie Express Advances Industry's First Full Visibility and Threat Detection Platform for the Enterprise

BOSTON, MA--(Marketwired - Jul 28, 2015) - Pwnie Express, the world leader in remote security assessment, today announced advancements to its Pwn Pulse enterprise solution. Pwn Pulse is the industry's first full visibility and threat detection platform that discovers and alerts to unknown or high-risk devices and their potential threats wherever they exist across an organization, whether at branch office or headquarters facilities. Now seamlessly integrated with Pwn Pad 3, Pwnie's most powerful, commercial-grade penetration testing tablet, Pwn Pulse enables users to remotely, securely and effectively assess all sites in real time.

"In my line of work, it is especially critical that we have robust security tools that allow us to detect rogue devices, scan suspicious traffic, and conduct penetration testing in the most effective yet unobtrusive ways, and from any location," said J.D. LeaSure, President, ComSec LLC, which specializes in technical surveillance countermeasures. "Pwn Pulse integrated with Pwn Pad 3 creates this perfect solution."

The Pwn Pulse enterprise solution provides continuous visibility throughout the wired, WiFi, 4G/LTE cellular and Bluetooth spectrum, across all physical locations, including remote sites and branch offices, detecting "known-bad," unauthorized, vulnerable, and suspicious devices in real time. Powered by easy-to-deploy, enterprise-class sensors, Pwn Pulse enables central management from a single cloud dashboard for scalable, continuous intelligence across the enterprise.

The powerful Pwn Pulse and Pwn Pad 3 integration enables security practitioners to conduct remote security assessments across all corporate facilities from a central cloud console. The flexibility this integration provides allows organizations to assess locations where a fixed sensor may not be realistic, such as SWAT or delivery vehicles, bases of military operations, and high risk targets such as politicians or executives. This many-to-one assessment capability allows for more frequent and cost-effective vulnerability scanning and testing of wired and wireless networks.

Pwn Pulse empowers organizations with:

• Continuous Visibility: Continuously and automatically detect all wired, WiFi and Bluetooth devices in the vicinity of their premises, whether corporate headquarters or remote sites, providing complete threat visibility across the enterprise. Pwn Pulse provides immediately actionable data including a comprehensive list of network devices that may be noncompliant or harmful.
• Discovery and Alerting for All Devices: Pwn Pulse maintains a baseline of all "known-bad," unauthorized, vulnerable and suspicious devices and immediately identifies newly discovered unknown devices. Additionally, Pwn Pulse identifies and immediately alerts for known rogue, purpose-built malicious hardware devices and/or risky devices (e.g. misconfigured, default state, vulnerable, suspicious).
• Centralized Management and Response Capabilities: Secure, centralized management with enterprise-class reporting empowers senior executives with critical knowledge for business decisions. Pwn Pulse is SIEM/WIPS compatible and provides effective rapid threat response that helps to "track and disable" devices, as well as auditing and validation of existing security controls, including enterprise wireless infrastructure and device management technologies.
• Remote Assessment and Enforcement of Critical Controls: Pwn Pulse validates security policies, configurations and controls, and supports custom scripts to further test and validate security gaps revealed by routine vulnerability scans. Pwn Pulse provides a powerful, proactive way to respond to high probability threats and threat vectors with a full suite of pre-installed penetration testing tools.

"Today's IT leaders are facing a losing battle with true ownership of the computing devices that comprise their infrastructure," said Paul Paget, CEO, Pwnie Express. "All organizations, regardless of size, need to consider a rogue device detection and protection strategy that can ultimately help detect 'known-bad,' unauthorized, vulnerable, and suspicious devices. Pwn Pulse, along with its integration with Pwn Pad 3, puts IT leaders back in control of their networks by providing full visibility across distributed infrastructure, IT and physical security policy validation and mitigation capabilities against ever-increasing risks created by expanding environments."

All of Pwnie's technology for enterprises and security practitioners is backed by the powerful research of Pwnie Labs, the company's security research and intelligence division. Pwnie Labs specializes in wireless and device analysis and detection techniques, contributes to open source security projects, supports the core infosec community, and establishes industry best practices for remote site penetration testing and device threat mitigation.

The Pwn Pulse enterprise solution is generally available and now fully integrated with the entirety of the Pwnie Express Mobile Line. Pricing for Pwn Pad 3 begins at $1,295 and can be integrated with Pwn Pulse for an annual subscription of $695.
