Security Audit

March Networks introduced Security Audit to help systems integrators evaluate and improve the security of their video installation configurations. The Security Audit capability, now available in March Networks’ GURU Smartphone Application 2.3, automatically analyzes and rates how secure the configurations of installed March Networks 8000 Series and March Networks RideSafe GT Series hybrid video recorders are, based on a list of industry-recognized points of weakness. The tool then provides guidance on how to make a configuration more secure, such as changing a password that’s been left at the default setting or closing ports that don’t need to be open
