Industry
Travel
Businesses in the travel industry are heavily reliant on digital transactions to interact with their customers. This makes businesses susceptible to many types of data breaches that could hurt the company, the customers, or both. Attackers are most likely to attack the web applications that process your customers' data by using brute force attacks or stolen credentials. These forms of attacks are preventable through device hardening.
Key benefits
01
Holistic view of the infrastructure
Nanitor provides an overview of all devices, software, users, configurations, known vulnerabilities, and missing security patches matched against PCI-DSS requirements. The outcome is a prioritized task list across your whole infrastructure that makes your remediation systematic and enjoyable.
02
Risk-based prioritization
Make the most of your limited resources by prioritizing the highest-risk issues. Nanitor assesses the risk of discovered issues based on external sources and assigns a prioritization score based on the asset criticality.
03
Blast radius minimization
Reduce the risk of lateral movement by hardening relevant configurations and known vulnerabilities. The best practice benchmarks for security configurations and known vulnerability databases are included in the platform.
04
Automatic monitoring
Nanitor automatically (in 5-minute intervals) checks and reports on thousands of compliance-related security issues across your infrastructure. Trust is good, verification is better.
The travel industry is facing an increase of web application attacks that could compromise customer information
In order to protect web applications, secure configurations need to be implemented on the servers hosting the applications. If your IT infrastructure is configured to restrict the number of consecutive logins and enforce password changes after a minimum amount of time, this can prevent brute force and stolen credentials attacks.
Hardening the devices that host your web applications
Web applications are typically hosted on a server and that server needs to be hardened from potential attacks. Nanitor provides several industry recognized benchmarks such as the CIS Security benchmarks. These benchmarks have been created to provide the IT community a detailed list of what they need to configure on their devices.
Defense in depth protects you from further damage
Secure configurations are only one part of improving your security posture. Nanitor's Vulnerability and Patch overviews allow you to identify and fix other weaknesses attackers may try to exploit. Once attackers have infiltrated a part of your infrastructure, they commonly look for other weaknesses. By patching the vulnerabilities, you reduce their chances of compromising other parts of your system.
Stay up to date on the latest attacks that could affect your business
Nanitor's information feed allows you to consolidate the information that is specific to your infrastructure. Instead of visiting multiple vendor pages, you can view the latest vulnerabilities, the severity, and their corresponding CVE with detailed information on the vulnerability.
Prioritize your remediation efforts based on the latest security trends
Attackers are constantly looking for new ways to attack systems. Today, it's web applications, but tomorrow it can be your firewalls. Nanitor allows you to prioritize which assets are at a higher risk of an attack, so that you can focus on those first, and then address the remaining devices.
PCI-DSS Framework
The PCI framework is a set of global security standards for business that handle any payment card information. There are various components that range from procedural to technical and Nanitor can help automate virtually all technical requirements. The compliance reports provide detailed information on what the issue is, the amount of risk from noncompliance, the number of assets effected, and detailed information that helps you remediate any discovered issues.
PII Endpoint Scanner
The PII Endpoint Scanner can help businesses identify credit card and social security numbers that reside on any of your assets. This feature runs with optimization in mind by running a smart I/O and buffering scheme that minimizes memory usage. PII issues discovered contain information on the file name and a redacted extract of what was discovered in that file. The PII Endpoint Scanner can be configured to a specific country (US, UK and Iceland are currently available) and allows you to make exceptions for issues found.
