Condyn is pleased to announce that Internet Security Systems (ISS), the worldwide leader in pre-emptive enterprise security, is expanding its integrated security platform with four new products specifically tailored to simplify the lives of network administrators and improve the integrity, visibility and protection of network assets.
By integrating the knowledge, intelligence and capabilities of network security components, ISS believes enterprises will achieve the full benefits of pre-emptive "ahead of the threat" protection.
"ISS is one of the cornerstones of the Condyn Security Framework, which delivers the most comprehensive, modular, integrated platform for total security, for companies large and small. We are delighted with their continued innovation and ability to lead in the information security space by developing such unique technology. Having been instrumental in the creation of vulnerability assessment in 1994, it continues to tightly integrate vulnerability assessment and intrusion prevention, proving beyond reasonable doubt that ISS have what it takes to continue providing groundbreaking solutions that will ward off attacks to information assets," said Elvis Chalimba, ISS Product champion for Africa.
Today, ISS is innovating in four key technology areas:
* Network anomaly detection
* Vulnerability management and protection
* Intrusion prevention systems
* Security management
Network anomaly detection
With the new Proventia Network Anomaly Detection System (ADS), ISS provides enhanced network intelligence and security by leveraging existing infrastructure to optimise visibility, integrity and protection of critical IT resources across the network. Proventia Network ADS delivers a clear view of an organisation`s network behaviour, while automatically detecting known and unknown threats and anomalous activities such as fast propagating worms and policy breaches.
Vulnerability management and protection
The Proventia Network Enterprise Scanner takes the product line from vulnerability assessment into complete vulnerability management and protection, through the delivery of:
* Automatic and continuous vulnerability scanning, complemented by a full set of workflow and reporting tools.
* Protection of valuable customer information, critical network assets and intellectual property by quickly and accurately identifying vulnerabilities on an organization`s network, providing remediation steps, along with tracking and verification of fixes.
* Detection and protection of vital network assets while reducing OS maintenance needs.
Intrusion prevention systems - new design focused on the network
Proventia Network Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) improves the ease-of-use for networking administrators and marks the company`s transition to custom-built appliance platforms.
By leveraging the breakthrough vulnerability research conducted by ISS` X-Force research and development team, Proventia Network IPS works inline to pre-emptively defend networks from the perimeter to the core from malicious Internet-based attacks.
Security management - manage, monitor and measure from network to host
All ISS products are centrally managed through the Proventia Management SiteProtector console, providing network administrators with a comprehensive, 24/7 view of their companies` security assets and status, through the ISS integrated security system.
