A zero-day attack is a malicious and malevolent attack that has never been seen before. Intrusion Prevention protects multinational companies from network vulnerabilities proactively and detects network attacks in real-time.
Intrusion Prevention works in collaboration with Orange Business Services’ existing Intrusion Detection service and other security services to add more depth in defense for IT infrastructure. This security solution is created by Orange Business Services using security devices from Juniper Networks.
Homogeneous support available
The integrated service offers 24/7 surveillance, monitoring and response from one of five global Security Operations Centers located in Rennes (France), London, Montreal, Atlanta and Sydney. This coverage allows multinational companies to have access to their Intrusion Prevention service with homogeneous support, offering the same service level worldwide.
Zero-day protection a must
“All multinational companies should insist on true zero-day protection when it comes to network security,” said Peter Glock, IT Services, Orange Business Services. “Orange Business Services helps its customers with proactive network security using a tool that offers real-time prevention. Companies interested in implementing intrusion detection or intrusion prevention need a huge IT department including employees with specialized skills and around-the-clock availability to properly monitor the network. Instead, companies can rely on Orange Business Services to provide this service, allowing the companies’ employees to focus on their core business.”
Intrusion Prevention from Orange Business Services uses intrusion detection and prevention appliances deployed at each customer site to identify and block network and application-level attacks effectively, before they can inflict damage. This automatic blocking activity helps avoid downtime and costs associated with network intrusions.
Security consultants bring expertise
A company’s most important asset is information. Customers can rely on Orange Business Services global security experts to help protect it. They can assess any company’s communications infrastructure configuration and design a security solution to help prevent a devastating network security intrusion. Using the latest tools and methodologies along with a best-practices approach, Orange Business Services’ security consultants can achieve zero-day protection.
