Lancope Protects the Data Center from Advanced Attacks

ATLANTA, Aug. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Lancope, Inc., a leader in network visibility and security intelligence, provides end-to-end protection for enterprise infrastructure, including within the data center where many organizations have limited insight. The company will present a complimentary webinar on Thursday, August 22 at 11:00 a.m. eastern time to demonstrate how organizations can eliminate dangerous network blind spots within the data center, and defend their assets from nefarious attacks including advanced malware, APTs, insider threats and DDoS.

"The data center is a crucial component of today's government and enterprise infrastructure, housing the critical servers and systems required to conduct business on a 24/7 basis," said Matt McKinley, product marketing manager for Lancope. "In light of the constant wave of security breaches making headlines around the world, organizations are bolstering their network defenses with perimeter- and signature-based technologies, but unfortunately those tools provide little protection for the data center, where the majority of corporate assets and data are stored."

In order to adequately secure the data center, organizations require in-depth visibility into the internal network to quickly detect and mitigate anomalies that could signify risks. Join Lancope to learn about the different types of attacks targeting today's data centers, and how organizations can leverage their existing network resources to:

• Obtain in-depth visibility into the data center network
• Gather advanced security intelligence from across the entire network
• Improve incident response, forensics and compliance
• Prevent devastating data loss

Lancope's StealthWatch^® System collects and analyzes NetFlow, IPFIX and other types of flow data to deliver advanced security intelligence from network edge to access, including for virtual systems. Deployed on the local network, or at a private or outsourced data center, the StealthWatch system profiles the normal behavior of the network and alerts administrators when a change occurs – regardless of the cause or source. StealthWatch also includes additional levels of visibility – including application, identity and mobile awareness – to further improve troubleshooting and risk posture.
