Online Scanner also helps manage the overall security health of a computer by checking that the appropriate virus scan software is installed and updated, and that web browsers are configured to ensure maximum security. ISS continues its leadership role in the intrusion detection market by expanding the industry s most diverse and integrated set of security sensors for detecting and responding to security risks enterprise-wide. RealSecure Sensors monitor network traffic and system activity and respond in real time when an attack or intrusion is recognized. RealSecure Server Sensor ISS today introduced the RealSecure Server Sensor, a new sensor in ISS intrusion detection family of products that enables organizations to monitor critical servers and their applications in real-time and take action to prevent damage of critical information on the servers. RealSecure Server Sensor, a component that is installed directly on the server being protected, goes beyond traditional server monitoring and provides the most complete intrusion detection capabilities by combining analysis of operating system logs, application logs, and real-time traffic.
Damage is prevented by enabling sophisticated blocking of undesirable traffic.
This industry-first application level identification allows users to tailor RealSecure Server Sensor protection policies to their unique applications. RealSecure Server Sensor also provides an intrusion detection solution for switched, high speed and encrypted networks enabling RealSecure to provide complete protection of networks and servers. ISS is first to provide an integrated management capability for the diverse family of RealSecure sensors thereby minimizing operational efforts. RealSecure Network Appliance ISS also announced plans to further extend its intrusion detection offerings by delivering the industry s first appliance designed from the ground up for the sole purpose of intrusion detection. Once a scan is completed, ISS security assessment software provides valuable feedback with different levels of prioritized security risk reports and corrective action information.
