Matthew Wade, NFR's Vice President of International Sales is in Melbourne for the launch of the new relationship to eSec's customers and partners. Today, IT resources are increasingly coming under attack and need to be monitored constantly for misuse and anomalous behaviour.
Intrusion detection is a major piece in the security jigsaw.
A firewall is not going to keep all the bad guys out. And anyway, not all the bad guys are on the outside. Mr Hill emphasised that the demand for intrusion detection systems is increasing in the region and there is intense interest in the technology. Formed in 1995, eSec customers include AAPT, Amnesty International, esmart, KPMG Peat Marwick, National Australia Bank, Open Telecommunications and Sun Microsystems. NFR products serve the Fortune 1000, Federal government, financial, healthcare and telecommunications companies, MSPs, ISPs and ASPs.
