SecureData Security, part of JSE-listed SecureData Holdings and the leading sub-Saharan distributor for Juniper Networks, today confirmed that the latter's Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP) security systems and Integrated Security Gateway (ISG) firewall/virtual private network (VPN) systems with IDP, offer protection from new Microsoft vulnerabilities that were announced earlier this month.
Juniper's Multi-Method Detection (MMD) offers comprehensive coverage in a single product by leveraging multiple detection mechanisms, such as stateful signatures as well as other detection methods, including protocol anomaly, traffic anomaly detection, network honey pot, IP spoof and backdoor detection. Juniper Networks' IDP solution can thwart known attacks as well as possible future unknown variations of the attack.
