Firewalls

Firewalls are a type of device which can help to protect your company's network from intrusions. Hardware firewalls filter traffic at the entry point into an organization, while software solutions do their work on servers and machines in order to block attacks before they ever happen. 

GNO offers two types: Unified Threat Management devices and next-generation firewalls, each with detailed functions for different purposes as well as one another; UTMs prevent threats by combining security features like anti-spam filters or content filtering tools that allow users remote access through any Internet connection.

Next generation firewall blocks web pages not previously authorized by the user when opening them up in new tabs, so you don't get bombarded with ads - it even stops password cracking attempts!

Email security

Email gateways are a number one threat vector for any company with sensitive data. Attackers use social engineering tactics to lure customers into giving them personal information, and then they send out phishing emails that can carry malware or other malicious software.

A firewall application blocks incoming attacks from the outside world, but also monitors outgoing messages in order to protect your organization's most valuable asset - its private customer database!

ANTIVIRUS AND ANTI-MALWARE SOFTWARE

Malware is a sneaky type of software that often spreads quickly and without notice. It can be anything from viruses to worms, Trojan Horses, ransomware, or spyware; but the most common are "malicious code." The best protection against malware includes using an antimalware program not only during installation but also afterwards for continuous monitoring until alerted otherwise by your system.

NETWORK SEGMENTATION

Software-defined segmentation is a powerful cybersecurity measure which offers many benefits. This security architecture separates an organization's network traffic into different classifications and makes enforcing policies easier.

It achieves this by leveraging endpoint identity rather than just IP addresses alone, so individual access rights can be assigned based on role, location or any other factor that may apply to the situation at hand - making it possible for all individuals have appropriate level of access without compromising overall organizational authentication security measures in place.

ACCESS CONTROL

Network access control (NAC) is a security process that involves recognizing each user and device on your network. This way you can keep out any potential attackers by blocking noncompliant endpoint devices or give them only limited access. 

You should know about NAC to make sure the safety of your company's sensitive data remains intact, whether it be stored in hard drives or online servers.

APPLICATION SECURITY

You need to protect your business software, no matter who builds it or how you get the application. Hardware and software vulnerabilities can be used by hackers as a way to infiltrate your system that should not go ignored for any length of time due to their potential severity. 

Application security includes all hardware, infrastructure processes and applications meant towards closing these holes in an effortless manner with little downtime while ensuring optimal user experience.

Behavioral analytics

Behavioral analytics tools detect abnormal network behavior by analyzing the way a typical user interacts with their computer.

Security teams can then identify and remediate threats more quickly because they know what to look for, while still being able to maintain an air of normalcy on behalf of end users who may have no idea that anything is wrong in the first place.

DATA LOSS PREVENTION

Data loss prevention ensures that sensitive company data does not leave the network. DLP is a way for companies to prevent people from uploading, forwarding, or printing critical information in an unsafe manner by stopping them mid-process with warning messages and other security measures.

The system will monitor usage patterns of electronic devices on your desktops such as printers, so it knows when you are trying to print something out without telling anyone!

INTRUSION PREVENTION SYSTEMS

An intrusion prevention system (IPS) scans network traffic to actively block attacks, which it does by correlating huge amounts of global threat intelligence. 

To not only protect against malicious activity but also prevent the spread of outbreaks and reinfection, these systems can track suspect files or malware across a network.

MOBILE DEVICE SECURITY

A cybercriminal is a villain who uses the internet to cause harm. Cybercriminals are increasingly targeting mobile devices and apps because of their increasing popularity, claiming that within three years 90% of IT organizations may support corporate applications on personal mobile devices.

However, not only must you control which devices can access your network but also configure how they connect so as to keep network traffic private from prying eyes- including those in government agencies like the NSA!

VPN

A virtual private network is a device that encrypts your connection from one point to another, often over the Internet. A remote-access VPN typically uses IPsec or SSL because they authenticate communication between devices and networks.

WEB SECURITY

Web security solutions protect your business from the dangers of web-based threats. Websites can contain viruses and malware, so it is important to have a reliable solution in place that lets you control staff access as well as denies malicious websites entry into your network. 

Web security also refers to protecting yourself by taking precautions with how you set up or maintain your own website for maximum safety against cyber criminals who would seek out any weaknesses they could exploit on an unprotected site.

WIRELESS SECURITY

Wireless networks are not as secure as wired ones. Without stringent security measures, installing a wireless LAN can be like putting Ethernet ports everywhere- even in the parking lot! 

To prevent an exploit from taking hold and take over your whole network without you knowing it is happening, you need products specifically designed to protect a wireless network.
