| Intrusion Detection
and Prevention:: Security products provide two primary benefits: visibility and control. It is the combination of these two benefits that make it possible to create and enforce a security policy to make the private computer network secure. For some businesses a properly configured firewall may be enough and for others it may not be enough. Network intrusion detection systems provide the visibility of the attacks by providing intruder logs or data logs, however these systems do not prevent intrusions. The key to preventing intrusions is to protect the infrastructure that applications run on: including the operating systems, internet connections and production systems. Preventing executable software from writing to locations or reading from locations for which it is not authorized. Access controls are what allow and prevent running software to initiate, execute, run to completion, and perform operations, whether illegal or authorized. The combination of detection and prevention combined with security policies, and access controls provide a more secure networked environment. Intrusion prevention systems are not a single product solution and require a consultation. |
