REAL-TIME SERVICE

摘要

West Coast Labs (WCL), part of the Haymarket Media Group (which publishes SC Magazine), has launched what it says will be an effective weapon in the fight against malware: its program, Real-Time Testing.rnThe organization performs accreditation and certification services for IT security vendors, but, until now, has conducted all its tests in laboratory conditions. Its real-time service, launched last month, aims to deliver to vendors what WCL calls "a higher level of performance validation," with tests that emulate the real threat landscape. The theory is that as malware is released into the wild, the tests will track it and see if systems on test are vulnerable.
