Formerly known as "Project Lookout", RealSecure 3.0 integrates network- and system-based intrusion detection and response capabilities into a single enterprise threat management framework providing around-the-clock, end-to-end information protection.
By combining intrusion detection capabilities at the network and operating system levels, RealSecure can detect an attack or network misuse the instant it begins, can respond immediately to end the attack, or it can track the extent of the intrusion as it unfolds.
ISS products are represented in South Africa by SMC Electronic Commerce (SMCec).
"Enterprise customers need a flexible system for monitoring network, server and system activity across multiple layers of the enterprise and they must be able to manage these different detection points from a central location," says SMCec MD Dov Herdan. "With RealSecure 3.0, ISS is rewriting the rules for network protection. We`re stepping beyond traditional intrusion detection and creating a single system that offers an integrated and complete solution for enterprise security and threat management."
According to a June 1998 market analyst research report conducted by Yankee Group, ISS is the dominant player in the market with a 30% market share, 11% higher than its nearest competitor.
RealSecure monitors network and server activity around-the-clock for signs of malicious intent, such as denial of service attacks, unauthorised access attempts, detects such activity, the system responds automatically to stop the break in before damage is done. RealSecure 3.0 uses a distributed architecture and includes two, integrated fundamental intrusion detection components that form a comprehensive enterprise threat management system: RealSecure Detectors and RealSecure Managers.
