Business Wire, Oct 4, 2007

* Security controls safeguard IT resources and data through a combination of Identity and Access Management, Security Information Management, and Threat Management

* Information controls safeguard the integrity of information assets and ensure their availability, even in the event of catastrophe, through a combination of Records Management and Recovery Management

* Change controls safeguard IT services from being compromised due its own ongoing development and infrastructure management activities through a combination of Change and Configuration Management.

CA has already demonstrated industry leadership in all of these areas. The company's upcoming Identity and Access Management (IAM) r12 solution, for example, will provide enhanced compliance reporting for improved visibility into IT controls and easier compliance with relevant mandates across distributed and mainframe platforms, as well as improving security for service oriented architecture (SOA)--important considerations in any long-term IT GRC strategy.

In conjunction with this announcement, CA is introducing the beta release of CA Security Vulnerability Manager (CA SVM). CA SVM helps organizations measure compliance and manage risk by identifying vulnerabilities in software and configuration settings, linking them to critical business assets and facilitating remedial action.

CA customers seeking to leverage the expertise of experienced IT GRC professionals to more rapidly achieve IT GRC excellence can work with CA Services, as well as select CA partners.
