Ozone Access Control List Management provides protection for unused TCP/UDP ports by implementing an access control list (ACL) on your virtual local area network (VLAN) interface.
Virtual Private Networks
In the new world of business networking, businesses can rely on VPN technology to utilize the Internet as their secure networking backbone. A VPN offers significant savings on communications costs while allowing your business to tap into a reliable network. VPNs can connect multiple offices, remote users, business partners, and clients all through the Internet. VPN solutions include hardware, software, firewall to firewall, router to router, concentrators, remote access, LAN-to-LAN, and extranets. Whether you're looking to exchange confidential data between your company and other businesses, create multi-site access to corporate servers and databases, or simply protect communications with your vendors and employees, The Planet can develop a VPN solution for you.
Vulnerability Assessments
Vulnerability Assessments provides identity services running on your server and tests them against a vulnerability database that is updated regularly. The automated network vulnerability assessment searches across servers, desktops, and infrastructure devices. The Vulnerability Assessment performs distributed or event-driven probes of network services, operating systems, routers/switches, servers, firewalls, and application routers to identify potential risks. Once identified, you can either repair these vulnerabilities on your own or have The Planet team apply the appropriate patches and updates.
Penetration Testing
Penetration testing is a live test of the security defenses of your server. Our team of CISSP certified security engineers use techniques and exploits that real-life hackers would use to simulate the results of an attack. This helps a company determine its level of network security and vulnerability and identify weak elements that need to be repaired. It can aid in evaluating an organization's detection and response capabilities and help determine whether the proper controls are in place. This testing is often required for industry compliance with standards such as Visa certification, FDIC certification, HIPAA compliance, GLB act compliance and others.
Operating System Hardening
OS hardening is the single most important step toward securing your server. Hardening your servers and workstations can serve to mitigate your risk of being hacked or suffering a denial of service attack by over 90 percent. Because most hackers use fingerprinting to identify what is running on your system, hardening techniques can hide this information or send misleading information. OS Hardening consists of an end-to-end custom security configuration of your server, including all patches and updates.
Spirus Spam Prevention
We've found that more than 82 percent of all mail processed within a seven-day period is spam. Bottom line, without filtering, businesses run the possibility of drowning in spam and viruses. Our state-of-the art spam virus gateway, Spirus, is designed to allow the delivery of valid email while rejecting as much spam as possible when it first enters the networkï½before it reaches your server. Spirus takes a load off your system by rejecting mail that isn't wanted or can't be accepted, and significantly reduces the chance that bounce messages will be generated by us or back to innocent third parties. Spirus also gives you the added security of knowing that in the event one of your servers goes offline for any reason, The Planet will store your email for up to seven days.
Arbor Peakflow DDoS Detection
Arbor Peakflow DDoS Detection collects information from Internet routers and develops a baseline for normal traffic. An unusual volume of traffic, or other deviation from normal, generates an event record that can be investigated by the SOC team, using Peakflow's intuitive graphical interface.
Firewall Protection
Our firewall administration option allows our administrators to manage your firewall over a secure console connection within the datacenter. Our security experts keep the firewall up-to-date, make routine or emergency changes, and assist in developing security policies.
Cisco Guard
The Planet's Cisco Guard provides the most robust and sophisticated denial-of-service defense currently available to protect the networked assets supporting your business operations. We protect your servers from network flood denial-of-service attacks with the Cisco Guard XT 5650. When The Planet detects a possible network flood attack, our Cisco Guards divert traffic destined for the targeted site and process the flows with sophisticated filtering, anomaly recognition, and protocol analysis to identify and block the attack while forwarding legitimate traffic to its destination.
Server "Delta" Hardening
The Planet's Security Engineering Team can perform regularly scheduled Vulnerability Assessments to assist you in tracking security problems induced by applications code changes, server updates, software additions and configuration changes. The Planet's team will alert you to detected security problems, and propose changes that will resolve the problem, giving you the advantage of a continuously hardened server.
System Integrity Checking
System Integrity Checking uses a database which monitors important files on the system and their file attributions to allow The Planet to set alarm criteria for unauthorized server changes and malicious user activity.
Managed Operating System Update Services
The Planet provides comprehensive Microsoft®, Sun Solaris™, and Red Hat Linux update and security patch services. Security updates are typically tested and installed within eight to 20 hours of their release from Microsoft, Sun and Red Hat. The Planet's security engineers also monitor Cert® and SANS advisories, Sun Solaris Patch Club, Slashdot, Microsoft TechNet and other operating system watchdog services to stay on top of the latest security issues and alerts.
Server Administration Services
The Planet's Network Operations Engineers are available to assist with server administration tasks that provide additional protection. These tasks might include adjustments to the operating system in order to match new service requirements, installing software, and maintaining user policies.
Incident Response
Incident Response by The Planet's CISSP-certified Security Engineering Team is available 24/7/365 to resolve security events and proactively keep all servers in the network safe from malicious and harmful traffic.Data Forensics
Data Forensics is undertaken after an information security breach has occurred. It refers to the rapid, systematic and thorough approach used to find evidence and gather material for the support of criminal and civil actions contained within an organization's network.
