Nine months in the making, the Awards reflect extensive,

interviews between TechTarget editors, security technology experts, and
the Information
Security Editorial Advisory board. The collective experience of these
experts originating
from service providers, cable operators and product developers helped
define the
appropriate categories. Mu Security's continued growth in defining the
emerging
Security Analyzer product category exemplifies the highly granular or
specific criteria required to encompass the most critical security
technologies and service availability
functionality for any IP-based product.
The Mu-4000 Security Analyzer platform utilizes a
systematic and repeatable process to
identify unknown and known security vulnerabilities in any IP-based
system, application
or network device without requiring access to any source code. This
helps ensure all new
and existing IP-based systems are always available for their end-user
network and
immune from hacker attacks. Mu Security end users, such as Service
Providers and
larger enterprises, ensure their networks are always operational using
the Mu-4000
including analysis of IPTV provisioning products, VoIP systems,
routers, 3G equipment,
triple-play service offerings. The wide range product developers
producing increasingly
complex IP-based software and hardware benefit with an automated means
to discover
both unknown 0-day and published vulnerabilities during initial
development, update or
post-deployment customer support.
