Internal Security

Network security used to be so much simpler. At one time, you trusted everything inside the perimeter and distrusted everything outside it. Now mobile employees, teleworkers, contractors, and business partners blur the distinction between these internal and external boundaries. Administrators used to have ample lead-time to patch all PCs on the network. Today, that is just not the case. Now there is little or no control over many of the devices used for internal access, making it difficult to know which endpoints can be trusted. In addition, the majority of attacks on your network and business are coming not from outside, but from inside your network.

A prudent internal security posture requires defense-in-depth built on best-of-breed information security solutions that can provide the following controls to safeguard networks from the inside:

• The ability to segment networks into separate security zones each with its own tailored security policy.
• Intrusion prevention utilizing a combination of detection methodologies such as protocol anomaly analysis, signature analysis and behavior analysis.
• Security event correlation and management to isolate and prioritize security threats in real time.
• An effective vulnerability management process that includes regular audits of the internal network environment.
