Cenzic Makes Testing Continuous
Teaming with VMware to add virtualized environments
By Jeff Feinman

December 10, 2007 — Cenzic has jumped on the virtualization bandwagon, by teaming up with VMware in the latest version of Cenzic Hailstorm Application Risk Controller (ARC).

Cenzic Hailstorm ARC 5.5, released today, has integration capabilities with the EMC subsidiary’s VMware Lab Manager and VMware Virtualization Center, which offer what Cenzic calls the ability to continuously test production applications in a virtual environment without the risk of disrupting the environment.

Users can see virtualized machines in the Hailstorm ARC interface with applications sitting on them, company officials said. Cenzic claims that more than 400 new application vulnerabilities appear each month. The virtual machines can use attacks from Hailstorm ARC to run tests and report results into Hailstorm’s dashboard.

“In enterprises today, companies typically virtualize applications during the QA stage and put them into production, while other companies take snapshots of the production application,” said Mandeep Khera, vice president of marketing for Cenzic. “Our integration allows users to continuously test applications that have been previously virtualized, or use VMware to take a snapshot of the application, put it on a virtual machine, and then test that with Hailstorm.”

Khera said that Cenzic chose to integrate with VMware because of its large installed base, including what VMware claims to be every one of the Fortune 100 companies.
