LockPath, a provider of innovative governance, risk and compliance applications, announced the release of version 2.2 of the Keylight platform. Keylight 2.2 provides users with a more streamlined user experience through enhanced, personally configurable dashboards and improved workflow capabilities that expedite the content approval process.

Features in Keylight 2.2 include:

Dashboard Enhancements:  Users can create system dashboards and personal dashboards. System dashboards are visible to all Keylight users, but configurable only by users with sufficient permissions. Personal dashboards are viewable and configurable by each user individually.

Workflow Assignment Fields: Dynamic Content Framework records and Compliance Documents can now be explicitly assigned to users whose workflow permissions normally provide access to only records and documents they created themselves.

Published Compliance Documents View: A new "Published" section makes it simple to locate and view the most recently published version of a Compliance Document. A Compliance Document can be left in "Published" status while a new revision of the document is being re-enrolled in workflow for editing to eventually replace the currently published document.

Using version 2.2 of the Keylight platform, LockPath customers can swiftly construct a risk management program that conforms to ISO 31000 and ISO 27005. The platform now incorporates the Unified Compliance Framework's (UCF) updates for Q4 2011 that includes ISO 31000 and ISO 27005 risk management documents, and the Standard Information Gathering Version 7.0 assessment.

“The Unified Compliance Framework was created to ease the burden for companies needing to demonstrate compliance with a multitude of regulations by eliminating redundancy and overlapping requirements,” said UCF CEO Craig Isaacs. “By integrating so thoroughly with UCF content, LockPath is helping to remove what can be an overwhelming amount of complexity from the risk management and compliance process.”

McAfee Vulnerability Manager provides fast, precise, and comprehensive insights into vulnerabilities on a business' networked assets. Easy-to-implement, McAfee Vulnerability Manager readily scales to suit networks from hundreds to millions of nodes.

The product's Vulnerability Scan data will be integrated into the Keylight platform and automatically correlated to a customer's assets. Users will then be able to utilize Keylight's advanced reporting capabilities to contextualize vulnerabilities from a business perspective. Managers across the organization will have access to a dashboard that provides them with a deeper understanding of the organization's security and risk posture.
