With an unflinching commitment to solving security weaknesses in networks, networked software, applications, and industrial systems, providing innovative, effective, and efficient security solutions, Beyond Security has emerged as a noticeable name among the Information Security companies in the world.
Beyond Security provides Vulnerability Assessment and Management solutions tailored for both enterprises and government organizations. However, the company has garnered significant recognition, primarily due to its renowned information security portal,SecuriTeam, and its groundbreaking research and discovery of security vulnerabilities in various products and applications, along with its contributions to the field of botnet research.
This privately held organization is a developer of IT security products that specializes in vulnerability assessment (VA) and vulnerability management (VM) products, which supports businesses in taking on the challenges that come their way whilst dealing with global clients.
Beyond Security's BeSTORM is a software tool that works both on Linux and Windows environments and helps in security assurance and supply chain sanitization. It performs comprehensive tests and exposes security vulnerabilities such as buffer overflow, memory leak, memory exceptions, one-off errors, etc.
The company has an R&D centre in Netanya, Israel, and headquarters in Cupertino, California, US. Distributors and resellers are located in North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Australia.
Among their customers are financial institutions, retail, hi-tech, ISPs, information security firms, cellular, telecom, and e-commerce companies. Serving prominent names like US Defence, Bank of America, and Royal Bank of Scotland, Beyond Security now eyes Indian enterprises to secure their businesses.
Having a well-coordinated team of thirty employees, the organization offers Appliance-based Vulnerability Assessment and Management Tools (AVDS – Automated Vulnerability Detection System) with centralized Management and reporting engine.
The VA/VM system is also offered in a non-centralized managed format, ideal for smaller company units or consultants looking to assist clients across various locations without providing managed services.
Shortly after introducing AVDS, Beyond Security released WSSA – Web Site Security Audit. Beyond can now scan any website or internet-facing IP address using the same comprehensive set of tests developed for their Fortune 500 customers.
Done on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, any site can now have the best testing available anywhere, without installing any hardware or software.
Beyond Security was formed in 1999 when Aviram Jenik and Noam Rathaus launched the SecuriTeam web portal, which is considered today to be one of the leading security websites on the Internet.
Having over one million page views a month and updating thousands of registered users on its security alert email list, the SecuriTeam.com web portal is a vital part of the company's activities and an essential competitive advantage.
Beyond Security has established a worldwide reputation as a leading force in the field of security vulnerability testing.
Beyond Security's solutions are now essential components in the risk management program of many organizations. The company was a part of investigating a team of cyberattacks on Estonia.
