BeyondTrust, the security industry’s only provider of Context-Aware Security Intelligence, today announced that SC Magazine has recognized the company’s threat management console, Retina CS, with a 5 star rating in its annual Vulnerability Assessment group test for the fifth consecutive year. This latest review exemplifies the unrivaled vulnerability reporting, mitigation and threat intelligence that Retina CS offers organizations to combat the ever-increasing threat landscape.

The SC Magazine review notes, “[Retina CS] offers the usual vulnerability scanning and assessment functions, but takes this a step further by adding context to those vulnerabilities, which brings in some risk management functionality alongside vulnerability management.”

Retina CS is the centerpiece of the BeyondTrust’s vision of Context-Aware Security Intelligence, aimed at helping organizations answer the most pressing questions in IT – what to fix first, what to fix next and why? Retina CS does this through unmatched security intelligence and analytics for the entire IT landscape, including support for emerging technology investments such as cloud, mobile and virtualization.

“This is yet another testament to Retina CS as the clear choice for organizations looking to deploy a centralized threat and risk management console,” said Brad Hibbert, EVP, product engineering. “We are very proud of this achievement. We’ve put a tremendous effort ensuring that this award winning technology is integrated across our PowerBroker privileged identity management product portfolio.”
