Automating data collection across IT and Security Products
ClearPoint automates the entire process of designing, calculating, and communicating IT security performance and compliance indicators from real data collected across applications and your organization. Start by picking metrics and scorecards from our extensive Catalog; collect data via our metric forms, and share your results securely with your stakeholders. Later download our automated metric collection and calculation app and securely access data from any security application, server, or network device and transform the raw data into usable performance assessment information. As needed, add alerts and notifications to let stakeholders know when policy thresholds are reached. With ClearPoint, you can distribute responsibility for data collection, control monitoring, and assessment annotation. - ClearPoint Catalog
The Catalog is your source for pre-packaged, field-tested Metric Apps. We’ve already done the hard work of creating useful metrics and scorecards that are easily customized, mapped to your organization's assets classes, risk profile, and organization structure. All packages are based on extensive field research by our metrics experts and mapped to industry best practice frameworks (ISO and COBIT) and compliance regimes (PCI, NERC, SOX, HIPPA). The Catalog delivers the know-how you need to ensure that you measure what matters most and communicate effectively with all levels of your organization.
- Metric Apps
Each ClearPoint Metric App delivers metrics, scorecards, and data collectors optimized for a specific information security product. Metric Apps are ready for you to plug into your data sources, including Qualys, nCircle, McAfee, Symantec, and Microsoft AD.
- Assessment Manager
This web-based service portal is a one-stop-shop for configuring and scheduling your Metric Apps. Create unique user views to filter by role which assessments end-users see; ClearPoint easily integrates with LDAP and Active Directory to map groups and roles. Group and classify assessments based on asset scopes that you specify. Schedule metric operation and scorecard publishing, set target policy values for your metrics, and set alerts based on policy values.
