Secunia CSI 3.0 - Public Beta

Secunia would like to invite you to try out the new version of the
Secunia Corporate Software Inspector (CSI) by participating in the
Secunia CSI 3.0 Public Beta test.

The Secunia CSI is a revolutionary scanning tool, with an unprecedented
level of accuracy and program coverage. This makes the identification of
unpatched and vulnerable programs faster and more reliable than ever
before.

The detailed result, generated by the Secunia CSI, include details
about the criticality rating and the impact of the vulnerabilities
discovered in your programs. This information makes it easy to conduct
a proper risk assessment and initiate the remediation of the
vulnerabilities.
