GFI LanGuard 12, the new, updated and improved version of GFI Software's tool for network vulnerability detection and patch management, is now available.
GFI LanGuard 12 brings increased scalability, and has been successfully tested in IT environments with over 60,000 workstations, laptops and servers. Customers with large networks can now install multiple GFI LanGuard instances and enjoy the convenience of centralized monitoring and reporting through a brand new, web-based console, accessible via secure protocols from any location or device, using all major browsers.
The newly designed and developed web dashboard is accessible by multiple users, so more administrators from different locations can now monitor and manage large IT environments, making sure that their infrastructure is always up-to-date and protected properly.
“We have been listening to our customer's feedback and all of the updates introduced with GFI LanGuard 12 have been developed upon requests from our worldwide customer base. The new web-based console now brings easier, real-time monitoring of even the most complex networks, with thousands of computers and mobile devices,” explains Andre Muscat, Chief Product Officer at GFI Software.
The new web monitoring and reporting interface gives a clear overview of the whole network and its current state when it comes to patches, updates and vulnerabilities. It also supports rules and permissions, based on the organization's Active Directory structure, for simplified access control of concurrent users with disparate access rights.
“GFI LanGuard 12 enhances and simplifies automated infrastructure protection and patch management to larger organizations with worldwide coverage, along with simplified IT auditing and compliance reporting. Our solution helps IT professionals to raise the corporate security levels at a time when threats are growing by thousands on a daily basis,” says Sergio Galindo, Chief Operating Officer of GFI Software.
