LAN/WAN Security

Packaged solutions are simply inadequate. Until a consultant takes the time to learn your requirements and limitations, he is guessing. Proper discovery and planning is required to protect your investment.

The Threat from Outside

There are a million axes to grind and some have a champion who would like to access or compromise the information you have spent money and time to develop and use. Our job is to make the cost of getting to your information prohibitive.

Isolation from threats outside your organization is the classic application of DMZ security. Firewalls, routers and switches provide the initial defense while network monitors detect intrusion and allow quick response to potential damage. Anything that passes these barriers is analyzed for threat potential.

Outside threats are constantly changing. The best defense is a system that can evolve in response to threats with quick, automated defenses. A Self-Defending Network is an architectural solution designed for the evolving security landscape. Security is integrated everywhere and with the help of a lifecycle services approach, enterprises can design, implement, operate and optimize network platforms that defend critical business processes against attack and disruption, protect privacy, and support policy and regulatory compliance controls. Using the network as the platform keeps people and IT assets safe, makes the organization more resilient and reliable, and enables maximum business impact from IT investment.

The Threat from Inside

Threats from inside your organization can be malicious or the result of employee ignorance. To most employees, home security and business security should be the same.

• They bring USB drives and discs from home.
• They want laptops they can use at the office, on the road or at home.
• They want to work from home using the same PC their children use to surf the Internet.
• People bring wireless routers so they can use their wireless laptops on the office network.

Any of these threats can destroy your network, shut down your company or cause you to lose expensive critical information. 

Internal threat defense usually takes the following form:

• Employee education.
• Computer usage agreements with each employee.
• PC/laptop security.
• Careful network access isolation.
• Network monitoring and activity logging.

Wireless Security

The convenience of wireless access is undeniable but it can also mean uncontrolled access to your network.

It is important to authenticate and identify each wireless access and provide encrypted communications. The same system that controls access points also monitors for rogue wireless access.

For high security applications, a separate wireless network is used to monitor wireless activities and proactively eliminate any unauthorized access. Special software prevents any wireless access outside of the secure network.
