SolarWinds has made enhancements to several of the company’s security management solutions, including Patch Manager, Firewall Security Manager and Log & Event Manager. The company has made improvements when it comes to automation, ease of management, and time to value.

As far as automation is concerned, SolarWinds Log & Event Manager now comes with automatic scheduling, distribution and notification regarding security and network activity.

The latest release of SolarWinds Firewall Security Manager provides integration with the company’s centralized management console, enabling administrators to monitor everything from one place.

SolarWinds Patch Manager has been improved with step-by-step wizards that significantly reduce the time needed to deploy patches to vulnerable systems.

“Security may be the most daunting task for IT pros, but in most cases today, ensuring security is no longer an option -- it is a legal and ethical responsibility,” said Chris LaPoint, VP product management, SolarWinds.

“These product enhancements are a testament to our focused efforts to deliver strong security management capabilities to organizations of every size and budget.”

30-day trials for these products are available on SolarWinds’ website.
