How can we help?
As cyber attacks continue to rise, with new malware and malicious actors finding different ways to carry out threats, it is clear that government organizations need to remain at the forefront of IT security in order to protect our national security. Core Security’s robust portfolio prioritizes threat detection and identifying security weaknesses, since the best way to handle an attack is to ensure it never materializes or is caught quickly. Our approach is multi-fold:
PROACTIVELY FIND WEAK SPOTS
Vulnerability management is a long-term security strategy that involves continuously identifying, classifying, prioritizing, remediating, and mitigating vulnerabilities in IT environments. Effective vulnerability management tools are critical to track the current security status of an entity. Deploying a vulnerability management program is a critical part of maintaining compliance and reducing the risk of both internal and external attacks.

REDUCE THREAT SURFACE
Threat actors thrive when they can discover gaps in security, exploiting issues that existed before they even started their attacks. Core Impact helps your teams improve your security posture by:
- Exploiting security weaknesses in network, web, endpoint, and SCADA environments
- Expanding the capabilities and productivity of pen testing teams
- Automating repetitive and time-consuming tasks

EMULATE REAL-WORLD SCENARIOS
Red Teaming takes on the offensive role of an attacker who will have to evade detection and beat security controls, including the federal agency’s own security team. Red Team effectiveness can be amplified with threat emulation software and attack kits that provide structure to execute a threat plan and the tactics and techniques of an adversary. Tools like Cobalt Strike and OST help run advanced attack simulations designed to bypass defensive measures
and detection tools with ease in order to improve security operations and incident response.

REDUCE INSIDER THREATS WITH IDENTITY MANAGEMENT
Insiders present a unique problem, since they can’t be denied access altogether, as they require it in order to do their jobs. Our IGA solutions find the balance of security and productivity by practicing least privilege, quick termination of accounts, and monitoring for segregation of duties. Our other solutions also increase awareness of security threats by deploying social engineering tests.

Regulatory Compliance
With so many unique regulations and constant revisions to keep track of, it’s impossible to manually manage compliance. Cybersecurity for government agencies is complicated but solutions like Core Security’s Vulnerability and Access Risk Management solutions enable government agencies to meet and exceed many recommendations from different compliance regimes. Core Security’s solutions are fully equipped to meet several important regulations.
Security Assessment & Auditing
Audits can occur at any time. Core Security helps support vulnerability management programs by validating and prioritizing your vulnerability scan data using Core Impact. Robust system reports can be automatically generated and tailored as needed. Core Security can also help you prepare for an audit by providing a full security assessment from our Security Consulting Services.
