Basically IT Security covers a gamut of areas, i am just listing some , on the
fly
* Antivirus Solutions
* Intrusion Prevention
* Intrusion Detection
* Patch Management
* Firewall
* VPN Gateway
* Vulnerability Assessment & Reporting
* Identity Access Management (single-sign-on, SOX/HIPAA/GLB compliance....)
* Network Security
* Security Policy Compliance Management
* AntiSpam (mail protection software)
* Web Content Filtering
I'm not sure whether we have one-size-fits-all solution which can help us in
measuring your enterprise IT Security posture.
I can list some good tools i have come across personally like NMap, ScanFi,
Nessus, IdentityAccess Manager,GFI ....but the list is endless, so give them a
try in google :-)

Dear all,
Currently I?m looking for a tool, or a technique to measure IT security?
The baseline for security is CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity and
Availability), that is every organization which want to called
secure must be guarantee that their system comply this matter.
But the problem is, we need a tool/technique to measure how
secure are we. Therefore, wee need a tool/technique to measure
how close that our system status now to CIA.
Please share your experience about this matter.
If there any link about this issue, I really appreciate if you
share to us (You may contact me privately) .
Best Regs,
Toto
