Triumfant Expands IT Intelligence Platform to Deliver NIST SCAP-Validated Triumfant Compliance Manager

(July 25, 2008)-- Triumfant, the industry leader in Automated Compliance Monitoring and Control software, today announced that Triumfant Compliance Manager has achieved NIST Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) validation in accordance with the OMB Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC) security mandate for all Federal agencies. Triumfant Compliance Manager is the only stand-alone solution that actively maintains a perpetual state of compliance and audit-readiness on every PC, laptop and server, every day.

Triumfant Compliance Manager dramatically reduces the time and costs necessary to achieve compliance with a variety of regulations-including Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), FDCC, Sarbanes-Oxley, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and custom IT policies-while making the organization more secure in the process. Based on the uniquely powerful Triumfant IT Intelligence platform, Compliance Manager continuously verifies and enforces security policies on every PC, laptop, server and other device that operates in a Microsoft Windows environment to minimize the risk of breach and liability. Preconfigured policies allow rapid adoption of standards across the entire organization. Built-in remediation capabilities automatically enforce policies. And comprehensive reporting with various levels of detail creates evidence of compliance to minimize the effort required to satisfy a security audit and facilitate management on an ongoing basis.

"When it comes to achieving and maintaining compliance, the challenges and costs can be daunting," said Barak Engel, president of EAmmune, a technology consulting firm specializing in compliance and security. "Technology solutions like Triumfant's, which can automate and simplify ongoing compliance operations, will become increasingly critical to organizations' ability to attain and remain in a state of compliance."

Key features of Triumfant Compliance Manager include:

-- 'One-touch' audit - Produce supporting audit evidence for the entire installed base at the click of a button.

-- Automated resolution - Maintain systems at a compliant status without the need for manual intervention.

-- SCAP support - Triumfant Compliance Manager supports Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) to enable automated vulnerability management, measurement, and policy compliance evaluation in accordance with NIST's FDCC standards for Microsoft Windows XP and Vista. The FDCC SCAP compliance solution also supports Macintosh, Linux, Unix and Solaris operating environments.

"Maintaining compliance today requires significant oversight and manual intervention, placing many organizations in a never-ending, high-risk cycle of compliance catch-up," said John Prisco, CEO of Triumfant. "We designed Triumfant Compliance Manager to help organizations break the cycle by maintaining continuous compliance and audit-readiness without the spiraling costs and risks typically associated with audits and security breaches."
