Powerful Security, No Upfront Capital
As part of the MSSP 2.0 approach to Managed Security Services, eSentire provides and maintains all the specialized security “interceptor” hardware at client site as part of our full and comprehensive service package, thus, requiring no upfront capital investment. The eSentire approach reduces our clients’ ongoing pain by providing the needed ongoing security expertise to reliably and transparently operate this hardware, which keeps key internal IT staff free to service the organization.
Traffic Stays In Your Network
The eSentire technology is entirely self-contained. Your traffic or data is never sent over the network to be stored or scrutinized. Reports are compiled on the device. Only command and control of the Interceptor is exchanged with the Security Operations Center (SOC).
Simple to Deploy & eSentire Security Operations Center Takes Over
The Network Interceptor can be deployed passively or actively with ease. The eSentire technology is not dependent on any feeder data security collection technology, or awareness of other devices to be effective. Component logs from additional systems (such as syslog) simply add to an already powerful detection and mitigation capability. The Security Operations Center then provides a 24X7 “contextual knowledge and adaption to threat” layer not possible with any stand-alone hardware technology.
Not Just Monitoring – Active Defense
The eSentire technology is not just providing a simple security incident notification; it actually has an active role in the prevention and mitigation of issues before they become problems. In particular, our DPI framework has been particularly successful in finding / stopping viruses even before anti-virus vendors have identified them (and released an appropriate signature update).
Managed Security Purpose Built – Multiple Security Capabilities
All high-end security products use a concept known as stateful packet inspection, also typically found in DPI devices. Stateful packet inspection is expensive on resources. This expense is typically repeated over and over again in conventional deployments involving multiple platforms. The eSentire solution is specifically designed for managed security services, and can perform many actions leveraging this statefully examined traffic. This allows the eSentire Network Interceptor solution to address the following key functions;
- Intrusion Detection / Intrusion Prevention
- Advanced Persistent Threat Detection and Blocking
- EXE Blocking / Quarantine
- Data Leakage Blocking and Protection
- Policy-Based Compliance
- Forensic Traffic and Incident Analysis
