Data Loss Prevention
(DLP)
Gateway Firewall & UTM
Web and URL Filtering
Cloud computing is the delivery of computing as a service rather than a product, whereby shared resources, software, and information are provided
to computers and other devices as a metered service over a network. Premise refers to products installed on site at the End User's location.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a computer security term referring to systems that identify, monitor, and protect (confidential) data in use (e.g.
endpoint actions), data in motion (e.g. network actions like email, instant message, etc.), and data at rest (e.g. data storage) through deep content
inspection, contextual security analysis of transaction (attributes of originator, data object, medium, timing, recipient/destination and so on) and with
a centralized management framework. DLP includes, but is not limited to HIPS, encryption and ingress and egress traffic monitoring.
Unified Threat Management (UTM) is a comprehensive solution that has recently emerged in the network security industry and since 2004, has
gained widespread currency as a primary network gateway defense solution for organizations. In theory, it is the evolution of the traditional
firewall into an all-inclusive security product that has the ability to perform multiple security functions in one single appliance: network firewalling,
and one or a combination of the following- network intrusion prevention and gateway antivirus (AV), gateway anti-spam, VPN, content filtering,
load balancing, data leak prevention and on-appliance reporting.
A Web filter is a program or device that can screen an incoming Web page to determine whether some or all of it should not be displayed to the
user. The filter checks the origin or content of a Web page against a set of rules provided by company or person who has installed the Web filter. A
Web filter allows an enterprise or individual user to categorically block out pages from Web sites that are likely to include objectionable
advertising, pornographic content, spyware, virus threats and other objectionable content. Vendors of Web filters claim that their products will
reduce recreational Internet surfing among employees and secure networks from Web-based threats. Some Web filter products also provide
reporting so that the installer can see what kind of traffic is being filtered and who has requested it. Some products provide soft blocking (in which a
warning page is sent to the user instead of the requested page while still allowing access to the page) and an override capability that allows an
administrator to unlock a page.

2. Endpoint Protection
Device Recovery
PCI DSS Support
In network security, endpoint security refers to a methodology of protecting the corporate network when accessed via remote devices such as
laptops or other wireless and mobile devices. Each device with a remote connecting to the network creates a potential entry point for security
threats. Endpoint security is designed to secure each endpoint on the network created by these devices. Usually, endpoint security is a security
system that consists of security software, located on a centrally managed and accessible server or gateway within the network, in addition to
client software being installed on each of the endpoints (or devices). The server authenticates logins from the endpoints and also updates the
device software when needed. While endpoint security software differs by vendor, you can expect most software offerings to provide antivirus,
antispyware, firewall and also a host intrusion prevention system (HIPS).
Locate and lock mobile devices. Selectively wipe files and other data on devices to protect company data while preserving employees’ personal
data. Wipe devices completely if necessary.
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a widely accepted set of policies and procedures intended to optimize the
security of credit, debit and cash card transactions and protect cardholders against misuse of their personal information. The PCI DSS was
created jointly in 2004 by four major credit-card companies: Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express.
Secure Remote Access
The ability to SECURELY log onto a network from a remote location usually involving an encrypted session. Generally, this implies a computer,
a modem or network connection, and some remote access software to connect to the network.
Auditing/Compliance
Tools
HIPAA states that a security management process must exist in order to protect against "attempted or successful unauthorized access, use,
disclosure, modification, or interference with system operations". In other words being able to monitor, report and alert on attempted or
successful access to systems and applications that contain sensitive patient information.
Managed Services,
Backup
Managed services providers can offer services such as alerts, security, patch management, data backup and recovery for different client
devices: desktops, notebooks, servers, storage systems, networks and applications
Application Monitoring
and Control
Application monitoring can be time-consuming and tedious, but utilities that automate monitoring and management can reduce the workload
substantially. A comprehensive application monitoring solution will automatically identify the systems on a network and the applications they are
running and create concise summaries for the administrator. Application monitoring solutions allow an administrator to effectively manage very
large IT infrastructures.
SIEM
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) is a term for software and products services combining security information management
(SIM) and security event manager (SEM). SIEM technology provides real-time analysis of security alerts generated by network hardware and
applications. SIEM is sold as software, appliances or managed services, and are also used to log security data and generate reports for
compliance purposes.
Integrated Intrusion
Prevention
Multi-Threat security and content protection - blended threats, intrusion attempts, viruses, Trojans, worms, spyware, grayware, adware and
denials of service
Mobile Device
Management (MDM)
Mobile Device Management (MDM) software secures, monitors, manages and supports mobile devices deployed across mobile operators,
service providers and enterprises. MDM functionality typically includes over-the-air distribution of applications, data and configuration settings for
all types of mobile devices, including mobile phones, smartphones, tablet computers, ruggedized mobile computers, mobile printers, mobile
POS devices, etc
