Digital Defense (DDI) is exhibiting Vulnerability Data Refinery (VDR) capabilities at the Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit.

DDI noted that its new VDR offering refines data from a variety of assessment sources producing higher quality guidance to remediation teams to address findings. Through integration via application programming interfaces, the VDR also provides more intelligent guidance to enforcement technologies to protect information assets on a more proactive basis.

DDI, president & CEO, Larry Hurtado states, "To thwart breaches by cybercriminals, we must do everything we can to seal security holes. VDR fills a typically overlooked gap in the information security space through the reconciliation and correlation of results from recurring security assessments from a variety of sources. VDR also provides chief information security officers with more time by providing more accurate assessment data from which to lock down their networks. In addition, VDR provides CFOs with much needed cost relief by reducing noise in Big Data security platforms; thereby lessening the computing resources necessary to keep them running."

DDI's EVP and chief technology officer Gordon MacKay said, "Bringing this technology to the market is extremely gratifying. It is my belief that VDR will make a significant impact in bolstering the security of organizations, while reducing overhead and expense. One of the most exciting aspects of the solution is the ability to import human risk assessments, a key factor in evaluating the risk posture of organizations. VDR dramatically increases efficiencies and accuracy in identifying true risk through the refinement of assessment data. Everyone is talking about Big Data. We're showing everyone the power of 'small data'."

Digital Defense is a provider of managed security risk assessment solutions.
