Frost & Sullivan Gives Entrepreneurial Company of the Year Award to VUPEN

VUPEN has announced that Frost & Sullivan (News - Alert) has recognized the company with the 2011 North American Frost & Sullivan Award for Entrepreneurial Company of the Year.

Facilitating corporations and governments to eliminate vulnerabilities before they can be exploited, VUPEN is an IT security research company which provides exclusive vulnerability intelligence solutions for defensive and offensive security.

To evaluate risks and protect from known and unknown vulnerabilities, VUPEN's solutions, Binary Analysis and Exploits (BAE) and Threat Protection Program (TPP), provide its customers with detailed vulnerability research. To understand their root cause, exploitability techniques, mitigations and both exploit-based and vulnerability-based attack detections, VUPEN BAE provides highly technical reports for the most critical and significant vulnerabilities.

“VUPEN's research provides its customers protection guidance and alerts about critical vulnerabilities up to nine months in advance before any patches are released,” said Frost & Sullivan research analyst Richard Martinez. “The high quality and in-depth technical details of VUPEN's research reports provide a strong competitive advantage and a unique way to mitigate and respond to zero day attacks, and customers with critical infrastructures need and appreciate vulnerability intelligence solutions with added values.”

Allowing customers to reduce their exposure to zero-day attacks, VUPEN TPP provides detailed research reports for exclusive vulnerabilities discovered by VUPEN researchers, and in advance of their public disclosure. To help them achieve their IT missions using tailored and unique vulnerability research, VUPEN has also created specific solutions for governments and national security agencies, the company stated in a press release.

Recently, the company presented its 2011 European Technology Innovation Award in Mobile Backhaul and Broadband Solutions to Bluwan. Due to single ended installations, less equipment required, very compact equipment, and the ability to backhaul a cluster of base stations from a single radio antenna, Bluwan’s FTTA is geometrically more cost efficient than traditional point to point (PTP) links. FTTA technology enables Bluwan to deploy fully functional pilots in a span of a few months.
