Network Defense

When attackers gain access to a series of devices without your knowledge, those zombie devices do the criminals’ bidding on your network. Though these are typically not used to access your data, they are used to perform criminal activities through your IP addresses and network access. Quick identification of outside access is our key to preventing these attacks.

Like a plaque, malware infects everything in a network very quickly once access is achieved. Protecting against malware at the network level and all endpoints is critical to our defense plan. Using known footprints and data, these malicious entities are stopped in their tracks when they attempt to access your network.

Considered a critical attack, a DOS restricts network access to legitimate users through flooding or crashing the network. Monitoring and tracking network access is key to early identification and prevention of DOS attacks.

This is the complex version of DOS and attacks through multiple access points making it more difficult to recognize until they have accessed the network. Monitoring and tracking network access is key to early identification and prevention of Distributed DOS.

With a combination of education and network defenses to identify potential viruses, these require interactions to infect your computer. This can be clicking a link on a URL or from an email. Our Network Defense plan will use known virus data to identify and prevent these links from traveling through your network to end users.

Ransomware is an evolutionary attack method utilized by Threat Actors designed to encrypt files on devices in both small and large scale, rendering files, services, databases, and the systems that rely on them completely unusable. In more extreme cases, data exfiltration will occur and Threat Actors will then demand Ransom to be paid in exchange for decryption and for releasing the purported data they have stolen.

Ever get an email and you think you know them, only to find out they spoofed the email address, but you responded and clicked the link. Sharing confidential information through supposed safe means is a common mishap that we can prevent with network identification of unknown senders and pushing them to junk and spam folders.

These attacks are more manual than most and often harder to identify because the attacker is actively bypassing security features along the way. Recognizing the change in network access or transfer of data is the key element to identifying this attack in progress.

Knowing all IP addresses for approved devices on your network is how we prevent the corruption of domain name spoofs and similar unwarranted access.

Just like DNS spoofing, knowing the IP addresses of approved devices keeps unknown IP addresses from access the network. Beyond tracking IP addresses, we will help you build endpoint and application policies to prevent access by unknown IP addresses.

Protecting access keys from unwanted users prevents access to information protected by these keys. They keys may access information storage or allow decryption of encrypted data.

Copying data when digitally transmitted is a form of sniffing, and data transfer must occur within range of the transmitter. This is common when accessing information within a network and particularly vulnerable for consumer transactions. Cryptography and encryption are our key components to sniffing prevention.
