An advanced security solution to some of the most dangerous threats
As more and more online transactions take place daily, company networks become all the more vulnerable, which means an advanced security solution should be used. The biggest threat is often the employee that is uneducated about surfing and possible threats. Certain websites are more prone to be hotspots for launching attacks and as such should be blocked.
Our advanced network security solution can be used to block specific websites, prevent unauthorized browsing and limit spam. In addition specific threats can be identified and firewall rules set up to ensure overall network protection.
One such a threat is that of botnets that are used to enter a company network through one computer which can either be through the use of email or a suspect website. Once in, the employee computer is used as a zombie – thus being unaware that it is used to send out thousands of spam.
Another extremely dangerous threat is that of the DoS/DDoS attack where a disgruntled employee or an unscrupulous hacker uses your company network against you. Through this attack your website or the network may become unavailable on the day of the launch of a new product.
One more threat that can also be prevented through our advanced network security solution is that of IP spoofing where data packets are intercepted. Don’t however, ignore the role of emails and email attachments in compromising your network. As such you should set strict email and web usage policies and make use of our WD Guard security solution to ensure implementation of the policies and to prevent undetected intrusion of the company network.
