NetCom Solutions SA, specialised security services and solutions provider in SA, has announced the availability of the TeleWall Telecom Firewall solution that allows companies to secure their telecommunications networks, and close the back door threat to data networks that exists through telephone lines.
According to NetCom Solutions SA sales manager Logan Hill, with the explosive growth in the number of security enforcement points that are exploited in a voice network, efficient policy-based management and solution scalability are critical for telephony network security.
"The TeleWall Telecom Firewall application from SecureLogix detects, logs and controls unauthorised modem, fax, voice or video traffic. It is the first enterprise-level telephone firewall system that works alongside your data network security infrastructure to fully protect your enterprise," he explains.
"In the process it delivers additional benefits by giving corporates real-time visibility, using an intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI), into telephone network traffic, utilisation and resources. Rules can be configured to automatically terminate any unauthorised calls without administrator interaction," adds Hill.
Based on the patented SecureLogix Enterprise Telephony Management (ETM) Platform - an intelligent networking device that IP-enables the phone network - the TeleWall system delivers unparalleled control over voice-network security policy enforcement.
"Beyond controlling unauthorised modem activity, the TeleWall Telecom Firewall has the patented ability to log or terminate calls based on call-type, or traffic direction, source number, destination number, duration or time of day. In addition to eliminating unauthorised modem use it also provides a new level of security for authorised modems.
"The three-tiered TeleWall application enables administrators to maintain the highest levels of security within an expanding network, while reducing the total cost of resources needed to manage the enterprise. With the TeleAudit and TeleFraud reporting tools, users can generate usage reports that identify fraud and abuse in addition to under-utilised voice or data lines," says Hill.
