The public-facing aspects of an organisation’s IT infrastructure can enhance or destroy their brand and public image. Security controls including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, anti-virus gateways, content gateways for web and email access all need to work in harmony to provide a transparent and thorough security perimeter. In addition to these controls, consideration must be given to the physical infrastructure connecting these devices such as the Internet routers and switches, ensuring that these do not provide a weak link.
While these systems generally focus on the external threats projected against an organisation, controls must be in place to monitor and control the information that “leaks” from an organisation’s networks into the public domain.
ThinkSecure has designed, implemented and maintained secure perimeter systems for leading banks and finance organisations that scale to include highly available multi-path systems spread over distributed data centres. These systems tightly control what resources can be accessed from the outside of an organisation, and what activities an organisation’s employees can perform externally. ThinkSecure can analyse your requirements, and design a practical and cost effective solution to minimise your risks.
