Firewall
Business today cannot function without network, email and web security products and services. You need to protect yourself against spam, viruses and spyware. MCS has partnered with eSoft to provide you with all those solutions. eSoft offers the InstaGate and Threatwall Security Appliances as well as software bundles called Threatpaks that provide email and web security.
The Instagate Firewall product protects your operating systems from theft of personal information and hostile intrusion. This compromises confidentiality and may result in data corruption or denial of service. You are running a risk anytime you connect to the internet. A firewall is the point at which your private company network and a public network, such as the Internet, connect. A firewall system is a hardware/software configuration which sits at this perimeter, controlling access into and out of your company’s network. It is important that these procedures are maintained.
VPN Manager
The VPN Manager is eSoft’s solution to managing and deploying the VPN. Virtual Private Networks (VPNS) have attracted the attention of many organizations looking to both expand their networking capabilities and reduce their costs. VPNS can be found in the workplace, but also in the home, where they allow employees to safely log into company networks. Telecommuters and those who travel often might find VPNs to be a more convenient way to stay plugged into the corporate intranet. VPNs can be created for an entire organization, connecting remote users and branch offices to corporate headquarters. Companies use VPN’s to reduce data communication costs and to allow their employees who travel to connect.
Web Threatpak
Web Threatpak by eSoft is an effective tool for implementing internet security policies. It filters Spyware, Phishing and threatening internet content. The Web ThreatPak manages web access, reduces the exposure of potential legal liability to the organization, preserves network bandwidth otherwise consumed by surfing the Internet and reduces the time and expertise required of vital support resources.
Email Security
Email Threatpak by eSoft has everything for email security, content filtering, quarantine management, spam mitigation, and virus protection. This technology can provide comprehensive protection from external and internal email threats. The software also provides protection from phishing scams such as the Paypal and eBay scams launched daily. The system also scans for zombies and botnets.
More than 61,000 viruses have been identified, and 200 new ones are created every month, according to the International Computer Security Association. With numbers like these, it’s safe to say that most organizations will deal regularly with virus outbreaks. It is estimated that one in 300 emails contains a virus. Securing the messaging environment is the first step to keeping the entire enterprise free from harm.
MCS will provide you with a complete risk analysis to determine what you need to protect, what you need to protect it from, and how to protect it. Let MCS and eSoft provide you with a network strategy to secure your business.
