Intrusion Detection / Intrusion Prevention Systems

Firewall
Firewalls are designed to safeguard your network by monitoring access requests. Designed to protect your network from attacks, firewalls allow granular access controls and enable comprehensive network monitoring. When a firewall is in place, authenticated (authorized) users can gain secure access to the network, while unauthenticated (unauthorized) access attempts are denied, alerting network administrators of suspicious activity.

Virtual Private Networks (VPN)
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a data network that makes use of the public telecommunication infrastructure, maintaining privacy through the use of a “tunneling” protocol and security procedures. The idea behind a VPN is to provide similar capabilities to that of a private network, at a reduced cost, by using the shared public infrastructure in lieu of a private one. Because virtual private networks make it possible to have similar secure sharing of data through public resources many companies look at using a VPNs for both extranets and wide-area intranets.

Anti-Virus / Anti-Spam
Viruses, spam, and other harmful or unwanted content have a significant impact on companies’ bandwidth, storage and email processing costs, while also reducing productivity. More than 90% of today’s viruses enter networks through email. Most anti-virus solutions only detect ‘known’ virus through the use of signature files. These solutions provide no protection against new threats that spread rapidly through the Internet. Now both known and unknown viruses and spam can be stopped before it reaches your network through proprietary predictive technology. Anti-virus/anti-spam service acts as your first and strongest line of defense by scanning e-mail and eliminating threats such as viruses, spam, and unwanted content before it reaches its intended destination.
