Multilayered Security
1]
Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS): This is the first level
of protection against remote intruders. NIDS monitor all the communications that
come in to and stop those that look suspicious. This prevents hackers from overloading
your server with Denial of Server (DOS) attacks and scanning your ports for vulnerabilities.

2] Firewall:
Only legitimate communications (e.g. email, password certified remote
users) are permitted to go through the firewall. This prevents unauthorized users
from logging into or using your network.

3a] Email Scanning: While an email is
technically an authorized form of communication, it may contain objectionable
content (pornography, confidential information, overly large files, etc.).
This software scans the contents of the email and rejects those that violate
your company policies.Top

3b] Internet Security: Similar
to email, a web site is technically an authorized form of communication. However
only certain web sites and downloads are appropriate for the workplace. This
software uses internal criteria to limit the sites that can be visited, and
scans what is downloaded. Top

4] Server Level Virus Scanning: A strong anti-virus program with updated signature files checks for viruses on every file that is saved to the server and protects against them. This is particularly important for email severs, such as those running MS Exchange. Top | Find Out More...
5] Workstation Virus Scanning: Not every file is saved on the server. Files from a number of sources - including those from infected floppy disks or downloaded off the internet - are put directly on the local workstation, which therefore requires it's own Anti-Virus software. Top | Find Out More...
6] Updated Communication Software: From time to time, prospective intruders and virus writers find vulnerabilities in popular types of communication software, such as Microsoft Outlook. When those holes are discovered software fixes or "patches" are made to close the vulnerabilities. It is therefore necessary to be diligent about being aware of these updates and applying them to the software.
7] THE BEST DEFENSE - Attentive Employees and Corporate Policies: We can implement many effective technological solutions, but the most essential piece of a secure business is a company of people who understand the various dangers and the role they play in preventing them. One regularly quoted statistic is that 80% of security breaches come from inside the company. Strong security requires strong corporate policies, clear management dedication, and good employee education about risks. Evron consultants can help you construct these policies according to the needs of your business.
