GFI LanGuard enables complete patch management of security and non-security patches to Microsoft operating systems, Mac OS X, major Linux distributions, over 60 third-party applications and the major web browsers too.

Security audits check for over 60,000 vulnerability assessments using an extensive, industrial strength vulnerabilities database incorporating OVAL (10,000+ checks) and SANS Top 20 standards. Innovative agent technology allows the scanning and remediation load to be distributed across machines. Particularly useful in enterprise networks. Vulnerability scans are multi-platform (Windows, Mac OS, Linux) and virtual machines are also supported. Additionally, GFI LanGuard can audit smart phones and tablets, printers, switches and routers from a wide range of manufacturers.

Once you have scanned for vulnerabilities and patched your systems, you can use the GFI LanGuard auditing function to learn everything about your network's security status. Audits can include checking for connected USB devices, smartphones and tablets, software types and versions, the number of open shares, open ports, weak passwords, users or groups no longer in use and the security health status of Linux systems on your network.

GFI LanGuard has a powerful dashboard that provides a complete summary of network security status. Integration with over 4,000+ critical security applications ensures the latest updates and definitions are in always place. GFI LanGuard also supports extensive reporting, including technical, managerial and compliance standard-specific reports (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOX, CIPA etc.). Wake-on-LAN support is also standard. GFI LanGuard can power devices on and off before and after scanning, saving energy and maximizing convenience.
