NSS Labs offers a variety of services to security product vendors. Group Tests are comparative tests of multiple vendors within a given product category. Vendors may participate in these tests at no charge. Test results are published and sold on the NSS Labs website. This research provides a wealth of competitive information for vendor product management and development teams.
Private Tests and consulting services are available for a fee. These tests evaluate a single product, with the results furnished only to the vendor. Vendors may choose to be tested based on a standard methodology or work with NSS Labs to develop a custom test plan.
Reprint marketing options for Group Test reports support vendor branding and lead generation campaigns.
Benefits:
- Find issues before customers do.
NSS Labs professional testing services can save security product vendors time and reputation by finding critical security and performance issues. Whether detecting issues before general availability or troubleshooting already-released products, NSS Labs will determine the true scope of the issues and make recommendations for remediation.
- Identify issues before a group test.
NSS Labs offers vendors the opportunity to “pre-test” their products privately before joining a group test. This rigorous evaluation gives research and development teams early warning on issues so they can be remediated, reducing the risk of surprise group test results.
- Differentiate products from the competition.
NSS Labs recommendations and awards are globally recognized marks of quality that help distinguish products as best-in-class.
- Trusted third-party validation.
NSS Labs reports provide vendors’ customers and sales channels with independent testimony and verification of product effectiveness and performance claims from a truly independent source.
- Satisfy request for proposal (RFP) and compliance requirements.
Working with NSS Labs can help vendors fulfill compliance with customer RFP requirements and industry standards, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
