Bit9 Global Software Registry

Until now, there has been no single source of information that provides such broad coverage and in-depth knowledge about the world's software. The Bit9 GSR allows customers and partners to establish the reputation and threat level of new, unknown and unauthorized software by using 30 different antivirus and vulnerability scanners, in addition to its own proprietary techniques, to assess a "reputation level" which can be used to determine whether a software application is trustworthy or desired.

The Bit9 GSR now aggregates data on software by categories, including categories that traditional security and antivirus tools do not detect, including: hacking tools, network sniffers, password crackers and denial of service tools. By gathering a rich set of software information tailored to the Software Asset Management industry - including vendor names, product names, software descriptions, SKUs - the data can be used for software management and inventory.
