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 :-)
