Version 7.0 of HackerGuardian makes it easier to meet PCI scanning requirements.

Comodo CA, Ltd., a Certification Authority and internet security company, today announced that it has released an enhanced version of its HackerGuardian vulnerability scanning service for online merchants.

The company claims that as part of the Painless PCI initiative, HackerGuardian 7.0 makes it easier for online merchants to meet Payment Card Industry scanning requirements. It adds that it enhances centralized management and automation of scans. It further states that users can better manage large compliance scanning needs with a new grouping system. Now users can logically segment the compliance scanning effort by grouping IPs and scanning them holistically.

The company avers that other areas of enhancement include improved false positive reporting and tracking, unrestricted queuing system, streamlined menu, and improved vulnerability reports.
