LANDesk Software Wins in Three Categories of Tomorrow's Technology Today 2011 Awards

SALT LAKE CITY, March 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- LANDesk Software, a global leader in systems lifecycle management, endpoint security and IT service management, today announced that Info Security Products Guide has named LANDesk a triple winner of the 2011 Tomorrow's Technology Today Award in the asset management solutions, endpoint security solutions and patch management categories. This marks the second year in a row that LANDesk has won in all three categories.  

This prestigious award recognizes security vendors with advanced, ground-breaking technologies and solutions that are helping set the bar higher for others in all areas of information security. LANDesk technologies were selected based on their positive impact on security in today's highly sophisticated and blended attacks environment.

"IT departments are more complex than ever before–security management is a full-time necessity as the number of threats, targeted attacks, applications, mobile devices and compliance demands continues to grow," said Mike Hall, senior vice president of sales and marketing at LANDesk Software. "At LANDesk, we make it easy for IT administrators to monitor security threats across multiple applications and platforms, including a broad range of mobile devices. Our customers can discover, manage and secure devices from any location, whether within their corporate network or in the cloud."

LANDesk® Management Suite was named the winner in the Asset Management Solution category based on robust capabilities that enable IT staff to manage, update, protect and control all software and hardware assets–regardless of location–from a single console.  As part of LANDesk Management Suite, LANDesk® Mobility Management allows IT staff to manage and secure any device that connects to the network including iPads, iPhones, Android, and other mobile devices. It also gives IT administrators the power to remove data from multiple devices in case of a security breach.

LANDesk® Security Suite won the Endpoint Security Solution category for its multi-layered approach that offers more integration and threat protection for Windows and Mac systems than other solutions. The latest version of LANDesk Security Suite includes updated anti-spyware engines, Device Control Management (DCM) and software management.

"Probably nothing differentiates any product or solution more than the superior technologies that make them suitable for today's needs while pro-actively being ready for tomorrow too," said Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Info Security Products Guide. "Threats are possible in many different disguised forms so security awareness is key to a proactive approach."  

LANDesk® Patch Manager was named the winner in the Patch Management category based on its ability to effectively distribute patches across heterogeneous networks.  LANDesk Patch Manager automates vulnerability assessment and patch management for both operating systems and applications; and then remediates them within minutes so that IT administrators can guarantee baseline security, stability and performance.
