Secure Decisions releases MeerCAT® Pro Version 4.1

NORTHPORT, NY, April 16, 2013 – The Secure Decisions Division of Applied Visions has released a new version of its wireless network security visualization tool, MeerCAT®-Pro Version 4.1. MeerCAT®, a visualization tool to help identify wireless vulnerabilities and threats, and assess the risks to an organization was developed as part of a DARPA-funded research effort. It has helped many security professionals – including information security auditors, penetration vulnerability testers, and computer network defenders – conduct post-hoc analysis of data acquired from wireless site surveys and security audits. The data analyzed by MeerCAT® is typically collected using “wardriving” software such as Flying Squirrel or Kismet that discover, identify, and locate wireless transmitters. MeerCAT® integrates wireless discovery data with a geographic information system (GIS) to provide a unified view of detected wireless devices, with their vulnerabilities and [...]

Secure Decisions’ Code Dx Featured on the DHS Build Security In Website, and the NIST SAMATE Website

NORTHPORT, NY, July 16, 2012 – The Department of Homeland Security has chosen to feature Code Dx, software assurance visualization technology developed by the Secure Decisions division of Applied Visions, on its Build Security In website. The DHS National Cyber Security Division maintains the Build Security In site as a resource to software developers, with the mission of “setting a higher standard for software assurance.” Code Dx is the only technology specifically highlighted in the Technologies and Tools section of the site. In the same week Code Dx was also featured in the Tool Integration Frameworks section of the SAMATE (Software Assurance Metrics And Tool Evaluation) website, hosted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This recognition stems from a recent presentation by Secure Decisions at the June DHS Software Assurance Working Group [...]
