SOURCE continues to be a great conference held in Boston, Massachusetts and Barcelona, Spain. It has a great atmosphere, the caliber of people in information security who attend are top notch and the presentations are great.

Interview: Ron Gula, CEO of Tenable Network Security

Tenable Network Security is proud to announce the release of version 3.2 of the Passive Vulnerability Scanner (PVS). This product is a network sniffer that scans for real-time vulnerability data and transmits it to Tenable’s Security Center management console along with real-time user and forensic activity transmitted to Tenable’s Log Correlation Engine (LCE). This blog entry describes many of the new features and enhancements in this release.
