Hillstone Networks has launched Server Breach Detection System (sBDS) to complement its portfolio of network security solutions.
The Hillstone sBDS solution is a key component of Hillstone’s Intranet security portfolio, protecting critical assets such as servers, and leveraging Hillstone’s unique behavior-based threat detection technology to detect compromised hosts, as well as threats within the intranet.
“Because of today’s very sophisticated threat landscape, no single point product – regardless of how intelligent or smart the solution – is effective to secure an organization’s critical assets. Multiple layers of defense is today’s mandate. Data, the critical asset as the ultimate target, needs to be protected from multiple postures: server front, at the perimeter and in the cloud,” said Francis Teo, South East Asia Regional Director of Hillstone Networks.
Hillstone's solution is built on a set of interconnected detection engines that act in parallel to identify threats inside the network. It protects critical assets, such as servers, and identifies advanced threats that have already breached the perimeter defense. It leverages the proprietary Hillstone threat correlation analytics platform – a combination of the abnormal behavior detection and unknown malware detection technology – to offer effective and continuous threat protection.
Deployed in front of critical servers, it monitors behavior and establishes a behavioral baseline. When the pattern changes, the advanced behavior detection engine alerts the other parallel engines of the event, where it is quickly pinpointed, characterized, and the IT security team is notified of the action with all of the pertinent information.
The Hillstone solution is often tapped into an enterprise internal network traffic, and complement existing perimeter protection, such as Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) and Network Intrusion Prevention System (NIPS).
Hillstone sBDS helped secure the internal network of a top engineering university hosting 25,000 students, whose network had been breached by an exernal threat. sBDS was able to identify the comprised host and protect the university’s critical data.
Zhu, a representative from the university, said, “As a top and acclaimed university, we have stringent compliance regulations; Hillstone helped us meet our compliance requirements by securing our intranet from external breaches. Now our students and staff can engage in their daily educational needs with peace of mind and the knowledge that they can safely access network assets without compromise.”
