Today, network administrators everywhere are scrambling to secure their networks. One of the most potentially destructive security threats is unpatched computers. Keeping security patches up to date is one of the most effective solutions available. And Shavlik Technologies has a variety of proven products ready to help you meet this growing challenge.
Founded in 1993, Shavlik has become a premier security products provider to companies such as Microsoft, Secure Computing, NASA, the University of Washington, and many other businesses, education, and government organizations. Shavlik continues to build on its vision to provide powerful, easy to use security products for the entire computer infrastructure of its customers.
In 2001, Shavlik created the industry standard HFNetChk™ to help users dramatically change the way they manage security patches by providing a robust, detailed scanning technology that ties directly to the Microsoft's security patch XML database. Shavlik Technologies also designed this security XML for Microsoft and created the tools Microsoft uses to manage it. Shavlik HFNetChkPro™, the full version of HFNetChk™, is licensed to thousands of users worldwide. Shavlik also makes a free version of Shavlik HFNetChkPro™ which is used by thousands of companies to do patch management. Shavlik has created its Shavlik EnterpriseInspector™ product to help customers find and manage critical security configurations of their network.
Microsoft MBSA was developed for Microsoft by Shavlik. Shavlik also collaborated with Microsoft to build the Microsoft Personal Security Advisor (MPSA) and HFNetChk™, the patch management solution used by millions of security administrators worldwide.
Shavlik has created an OEM Partner Plan to allow other product vendors to smoothly integrate Shavlik's standard technology into theirs. This program includes the same technology Shavlik has licensed to Microsoft, providing an industry standard for security patch management.
