The CISA pledge spotlights the commitment to
continue building enhanced security into N-able products and
services
N-able, Inc. (NYSE: NABL), a global software company helping IT
services providers deliver remote monitoring and management, data
protection as-a-service, and security solutions, today expanded its
ongoing efforts to bolster the company’s cybersecurity posture, and
in turn its partners and their customers, by signing the
Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Secure By
Design Pledge.
N-able was part of the first group of companies committed to the
pledge and is currently the only vendor signed up with an ecosystem
that is built from the ground up with MSPs in mind. The CISA pledge
is taken by companies who are committed to making a good-faith
effort to work towards increased security and transparency within
the next year. By signing the pledge, N-able is further
prioritizing security in its products and services, while building
on its defenses against cyberthreats. The CISA pledge also points
to the added safeguarding N-able is placing on its MSP partners’
data and the products and services they offer to their
customers.
“Signing the Secure by Design pledge reaffirms our commitment to
fundamentally integrating security into every stage of our
development lifecycle. This approach is not simply about
compliance; it's about leadership in creating technology that can
withstand emerging threats,” said Dave MacKinnon, Chief Security
Officer at N-able. “We are dedicated to transparency, continuous
improvement, and collaboration with industry partners and
stakeholders. This pledge underscores our determination to build
trust and constantly advance security in every piece of technology
we deliver.”
The CISA Secure by Design Pledge is a voluntary initiative to
promote integrating robust cybersecurity practices into product
development and service offerings. The goals outlined in the pledge
include:
- Increasing the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA)
- Decreasing the use of default passwords
- Reducing the “prevalence of one or more vulnerability classes
across the manufacturer’s products”
- Increasing the installation of security patches by
customers
- Publishing vulnerability disclosure policies that authorize
testing by customers and provide a “clear channel” to report
vulnerabilities, as well as publicly disclose them “in line with
coordinated vulnerability disclosure best practices and
international standards”
- Reporting accurate “Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) and
Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) fields in every Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) record for the manufacturer’s
products”
- Increasing the “ability for customers to gather evidence of
cybersecurity intrusions affecting the manufacturer’s
products”
