Intrusion Prevention and Intrusion Detection Systems are deployed into networks to provide a granular view on all network traffic flowing through a clients network. These systems are designed to identify and respond to potential threats. As with Firewalls, there are many IDS/IPS appliances available on the market today. However, these appliances cannot respond effectively and in many instances require human interaction and intervention in order to operate optimally. The labor involved in managing these security systems is both arduous and requires high-level network security engineer(s) to understand and identify real threats to the network versus false positives and respond appropriately.
onShore’s onGuard service is comprised of a team of security engineers that have the expertise required to mitigate threats to your network. The onGuard team has designed our own custom IDS/IPS Senor device which is installed into our clients networks. We monitor and manage the device to keep the OS, applications, polices and rule sets current. Our onGuard Sensor communicates back to our data center, over a highly encrypted connection, where our onGuard servers parse through the data to help identify anomalies. That data is then reviewed by the security engineers to further isolate and respond to actual threats to the network. This data can then be used to generate custom reporting on events, trending reports or comparative analysis.
