Palerra Receives Integration Certification From ServiceNow


LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Apr 20, 2015) - Knowledge15 -- Palerra, the cloud security automation company, today announced its market leading cloud security platform, LORIC™, has received certification of its integration with ServiceNow. Certification by ServiceNow signifies that LORIC has successfully completed a set of defined tests focused on integration, interoperability, security and performance. The certification also ensures best practices are utilized in the design and implementation of LORIC's integration with ServiceNow.

With LORIC from Palerra, enterprises gain comprehensive threat visibility, sustainable compliance and actionable incident response for their entire cloud footprint, from branded applications such as ServiceNow and Microsoft Office 365, to infrastructure like Amazon Web Services. LORIC is unobtrusive when monitoring activity and is unique in that it detects threats at the source of the data and is not deployed inline with cloud services. It does not require hardware, software, or agents thereby dramatically simplifying deployment and operations.

LORIC for ServiceNow offers the following key features:

  • Threat Detection: Identification and analysis of thousands of threat vectors across applications to discover breaches and determine anomalies from normal user behavior, application behavior and traffic from suspicious locations.
  • Automated Security Configuration Management: Automated monitoring and enforcement of configurations in ServiceNow across both its platform and various application modules ensuring continuous compliance.
  • Privileged Account and Administrator Monitoring: Identification of suspicious administrator actions including excessive privilege escalations or role impersonation that could potentially create backdoor threats leading to IP theft and compromise the enterprise's overall security and risk posture.
  • Data Loss Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of sensitive data and enterprise intellectual property stored in ServiceNow through the ability to track movement and actions at the object level, delivered through fine-grained policies.
  • Predictive Threat Analytics: Performs real-time threat modeling using non-linear machine learning algorithms to automatically correlate threat vectors including IP reputation, action velocity and anomalous behavior while providing a concise summary of potential threats.
  • Automated Incident Management and Remediation: Automatically generates incident tickets in ServiceNow for threat events and resolves incidents natively through built-in capabilities or by integrating with existing change management processes.

"Enterprises that have embraced ServiceNow's industry leading service management platform, can now leverage LORIC and benefit from comprehensive and automated security monitoring that natively complements their ServiceNow deployment," said Rohit Gupta, founder and CEO of Palerra. "This certified integration is testament to our holistic approach and value in automating threat detection and remediation for an enterprise's complete cloud footprint."
