Making sure your network is totally under your control is a very important step towards securing your infrastructure. From Gateway security to Network Access Control (NAC) to datacenter protection, network security covers multiple layers through different technologies.
- Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW) allow you to create network policies around “who-has-access-to-what”
- Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) monitor the traffic, looking for possible intrusion attempts
- Next-Generation IPS (NGIPS) analyze traffic to block intrusion attempts detected by the IDS engine whether internal or external
- Web Filtering solutions restrict users to websites that have been deemed secure and appropriate for corporate access, while also enforcing traffic control to optimize internet bandwidth usage
- Mail Filtering solutions filter out incoming and outgoing spam, while scanning emails and attachments received
- Network Access Control (NAC) enforces corporate policies for any device or user accessing the network
- Traffic Shaping takes control of the network flow by creating priorities for specific traffic, and controlling utilization
- Gateway Anti-Virus/Anti-Spyware scans incoming traffic and blocks viruses and spyware at the gateway level
- Unified Threat Management (UTM) are All-in-One devices combining several of the above capabilities in a single appliance (physical or virtual)
