Application Security
The security landscape is changing with a growing number of threats aimed at the vulnerabilities in enterprises' mission critical business applications.
The security landscape is changing with a growing number of threats aimed at the vulnerabilities in enterprises' mission critical business applications. The complexity and frequency of these attacks makes them increasingly difficult and costly to prevent, resulting in financial damage and lost productivity to companies.
Traditional solutions such as firewalls were not designed to prevent the new generation of application layer attacks that leave enterprises exposed to issues such as identity theft and fraud, virus's and worms. The need for application security solutions that not just detect but also prevent and protect critical business assets has never been so important. Are you interested in application or messaging security?
Application Firewall
A leading solution delivering both application delivery and security together in a single platform.
Embracing the Web represents a major risk for companies as any flaws that exist in their network is open to attack and abuse and can lead to a variety of painful conclusions. With the increase in application traffic moving to the web, increasing amounts of sensitive customer data is being exposed to new threats that most current security systems cannot prevent.
An application firewall controls data by inspecting the contents of the traffic, blocking inappropriate content, such as certain websites, viruses, and attempts to exploit flaws in client software. One of the leading solutions delivers both application delivery and security together in a single platform providing application layer protection from both targeted and generalised application attacks to ensure that applications are always available and performing optimally.
Security Information and Event Management
Real-time security protection, helping you establish compliance and reduce overall security risk.
The high volume of security events that are generated can make it difficult to quickly identify and respond to real security threats. Network and security events are produced once, and if not properly captured, are lost forever.
But if logged events can't be captured and managed, then the ability to conduct real-time threat correlation and analysis, report incidents to management, or reference them historically, is also lost. Avnet offer a solution to deliver real-time security protection, helping organisations establish compliance and reduce overall security risk.
Web Content Filtering
The explosion of social networking sites and the exponential rise in Internet applications such as peer-to-peer, IM, and messaging services can not only impair network performance but leave the network open to malware. Uncontrolled and unmanaged applications entering the business can affect the performance of mission critical applications and impact on user productivity, as well as business continuity.
Web Proxy
With the changing profile of network topology and network usage, enterprises are faced with balancing their Internet communication requirements with business risk. Web 2.0 applications used for collaboration purposes are demanded by the next generation of workers but can leave the network open to abuse. Companies need to be able to gain control of their Internet applications and ensure protection from web-based threats.
