Company's VMSS offering, backed by military-strength intelligence gathering,
provides a unique, powerful and cost-efficient digital security solution
NEW YORK, April 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Creating the most comprehensive and
efficient suite of security solutions, Vigilinx, Inc., the leading digital
security solutions company, has launched its Vigilinx Managed Security
Services (VMSS), supported by Vigilinx Security Intelligence System (VSIS),
the company's intelligence-based approach to information security.
VMSS offers companies a flexible, scalable and easy-to-implement security
solution that enhances the value of internal IT staffs by allowing them to
focus on core competencies. VMSS offerings, Intrusion Detection Systems
(IDS), Managed Firewalls, and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), are available
independently or as an integrated solution. When provided as an integrated
solution, Vigilinx can view all aspects of the enterprise, enabling a fully
secure network that is protected 24/7/365.
VMSS provides a higher level of value than other MSS offerings, because it
is supported by the entire suite of Vigilinx' digital security solutions,
which includes consultative analysis, requirements definition, implementation,
emergency response and forensic investigation.
"The scalability and comprehensive nature of Vigilinx' approach to digital
security enables our clients to cost-effectively manage risk by partnering
with trusted experts who understand the nature and severity of the
threatscape," said Bruce Murphy, Vigilinx CEO.
Vigilinx is the first company to provide customers with real-time
integration between network monitoring and intelligence gathering. This
intelligence-based approach to managed security enables Vigilinx to
proactively protect clients' networks and defend them against newly discovered
threats.
"By leveraging VSIS to strengthen our VMSS offering, Vigilinx is able to
identify emerging threats and configure clients' monitoring systems to be on
the alert for specific attacks that are relevant to each individual industry
or network," said Murphy. "This provides a uniquely strategic approach to
delivering the industry's most proactive, 7x24 protection package."
Utilizing VSIS, Vigilinx' security intelligence experts gather, evaluate,
analyze and correlate information. They monitor more than 7,000 sources with
their global source network. This includes approximately 300-400 high-value
sources as well as government, professional and security organizations, news
groups, IRC, media and more.
In addition to integrating VSIS into real-time network monitoring and
analysis, VMSS also features a non-intrusive network IDS monitoring service.
Monitored by a seasoned team of IDS experts, it does not require any agents or
devices to be placed within a client's enterprise. The service employs unique,
proprietary software that allows for the elimination of false positives or
(false alerts) of potential security threats. This capability is extremely
important to the efficiency of an organization's security effort, especially
when a company does not have the IT staff to address and investigate every
intrusion alert, regardless of severity or importance.
"Because VMSS strips out false positives, Vigilinx also enables our
clients' IT professionals to determine the difference between what is a real
threat and what's just noise in their environment," said Murphy. "Working
remotely from our Security Operations Centers (SOC), our team of specialists
can quickly alert our clients' in-house personnel to real security issues and
recommend corrective actions to address those issues."
According to Murphy, the company's VMSS offering also includes fully
functional anomaly detection and event correlation, which has the capability
to cross multiple platforms and networks, giving the company a true picture of
attacks and security threats in its customers' environments. This approach
enables Vigilinx to provide the most streamlined, scalable and cost-effective
managed security solution available.
