Background - Our Vision and Mission

Digital Defense, Inc. (DDI) was founded in January 2000. Unlike other firms in the security industry, Digital Defense was not an offshoot of another business line. Our mission was the delivery of affordable security solutions to clients of all sizes, initially focused on the financial services sector. Today our mission remains the same, and we effectively serve financial institutions with assets from $10 million to over $25 billion, and other clients ranging from small businesses to multinational Fortune 1000 enterprises. The Company's proven scalability is a direct result of ongoing, focused investment in our multi-application service delivery platform and our cost-effective Application Service Provider (ASP) business model.

Our Services

Digital Defense offers security compliance and business risk management services to clients utilizing a proprietary Security Information Management (SIM) platform. We provide these services either on a subscription basis or as stand-alone projects. Our current subscription-based services include on-demand Host Discovery and Vulnerability Assessment, risk and threat-based Asset Prioritization, and Vulnerability Management aided by online remediation help from both internal and third party sources (e.g., Mitre, OSVDB, etc.). We offer Security Training on a subscription basis as well, with two separate programs available - one designed for our clients' staff, and another for their online patrons. Project-based services include Policy provisioning and review, Social Engineering, Enterprise Risk Assessments and other general security consulting solutions. We also offer Anti-Phishing services and four levels of Penetration Testing under both subscription and project-based programs.

Our Delivery Methodology

Digital Defense offers a wide variety of industry standard, well-defined services and market-specific security and compliance-oriented packages designed to fit your organization's unique needs and budgetary requirements. Our on-demand Host Discovery Scans, Vulnerability Assessments and Penetration Testing results are captured through our proprietary, third-generation service delivery platform known as the Network Security Awareness System. (NSAS™), with results delivered via our flagship Frontline™ secure web portal. We continue to incorporate other services into this same system, providing you a growing array of service offerings through a common, secure Web interface.

Clients currently utilize our NSAS SIM architecture to access auditor reports, schedule host discoveries and vulnerability assessments, and track and report on remediation progress. They perform these tasks through the Frontline interface, enabling our clients to fulfill their security compliance requirements with relative ease and enjoy a maintenance.free, service-based solution.

The NSAS SIM architecture also provides our clients with access to ActiveView™, our premier workflow management system. ActiveView allows you to monitor remediation activity on hosts in offices around the block or around the world. By virtue of our adherence to the emerging Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) standards, future releases of NSAS and Frontline will provide enhanced integration with multiple help desk, ticketing, patch management and other types of systems.
