Avalanche Vulnerability Assessment provides integrated ThreatEx capabilities for attack and vulnerability generation. You have a powerful ally in the ongoing battle to defend your network against malicious traffic. By exposing devices and networks to actual threats in a controlled test lab environment, you can protect your network from malicious entities before costly damage is done.

The Avalanche Vulnerability Assessment solution offers networks protection with three key features: Avalanche Attack Designer enables threats to be created within minutes without time-intensive programming. New threats are detected and posted to the Spirent Threat Knowledge Base, a continuously updated library of threat definitions. Finally, everything can be automated via the Avalanche API, which streamlines and automates the testing process by delivering a complete TCL scripting environment.

The Avalanche Vulnerability Assessment solution is available on all Avalanche hardware options to provide network equipment vendors and enterprises with the comprehensive and flexible network vulnerability testing solution they need.
