If your business connects to the Internet, you need protection. Once you are on
the Guaranteed Networks® management platform, you’ve taken a major step toward
safeguarding your systems but unless you complete the "security suite", your business
could be at serious risk. Even the low skill hackers have access to tools that can
paralyze your system and compromise your confidential data and network resources.
GN-Secure, a customized enhancement to any of our GN products, ensures that your
business has the protection you need. Threats come in many different flavors and
transport methods; and GN-Secure’s threat management suite is ready to address them
all. Like all GN services, GN-Secure was specifically designed to accommodate both
the needs and budgets of small and midsize businesses.
GN-Secure Components:
GNPM Preventative Maintenance Suite
Includes an anti-virus agent, maintenance, subscription updates, and complete virus removal and/or remediation, anti-spyware software, anti-spyware scheduled sweeps, spyware removal as needed, patch management, and Internet debris clean-up.
Real Firewall Protection
Includes an appliance-based security solution. Uniquely engineered technology speeds packet processing and increases data transfer rates much more efficiently than other solutions resulting in high-level security without sacrificing network performance. Our solution provides ICSA certified stateful-inspection firewall technology to protect your trusted resources. Network Address Translation (NAT) router is no longer enough to protect your network.
Email: Anti-Spam / Anti-Virus Protection
Some threats can be stopped right at the gate. Spyware, viruses...many of these threats are emailed to millions Internet users every day. Stopping the latest of these threats is easy with the right technology. Of course, the bad guys are always attempting to get past our defenses, so this is never a "plug it in and forget it" proposition. GN-Secure manages this for you, identifying and stopping unsolicited bulk emails, phishing scams, viruses, and other threats before they ever reach your email server.
Internet Content & Bandwidth Management
Today, many threats enter your network by request. If one of your users access the wrong website, that user could be initiating an internal request for malicious code unintentionally. In addition, users on your network could be using a lot of your precious bandwidth for non-business purposes. This is costing your company in resources and most likely in lost productivity. GN-Secure’s ICBM (Internet Content & Bandwidth Management) lets you control the internet, guiding your employees to make the best possible use of their working hours. You also get quick and efficient resolutions to your problems by our staff of certified experts, keeping your business optimally productive at all times.
Penetration Testing
All the safeguards in the world are of little value without testing. GN-Secure can schedule regular intervals to perform external IP scans and penetration tests to your network and produce a full report on any real or potential vulnerabilities.
Internet Usage Reports
How are your employees using the internet? Many companies find that by tracking employee internet usage, they are better equipped to make polices that will increase productivity. This feature also allows you to keep your employees accountable for their time during working hours. SLPowers engineers help you compile the reports you need, making them available for your eyes only (or for the eyes of your designated administrator). These reports provide dates, times, users or originating IP addresses, and hypertext links to every site your users visit throughout the day. Our Global Support Desk engineers can help you compile custom reports on individual users, and are available for detailed explanations.
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
VPN connectivity allows you to establish a secure, virtually impenetrable connection to your network for branch offices, remote locations, mobile sales forces, even from your home. Of course, managing VPNs is an art. Our trained engineers will make it easy for you, ensuring your maximum availability for your remote users.
Flexible and Complete Service Plans
Like all of our GN platform offerings, GN-Secure, with its multiple components, can be tailored to provide a scalable solution to your specific needs. SLPowers provides the equipment fully configured to the site and monitors it for the life of the service.
The Global Services Desk (GSD)
The GSD provides full-time monitoring and unlimited support of your GN-Secure system. Our engineers provide prompt, courteous support while continually monitoring the system that keeps you protected 24/7. Policies or rule set changes are handled quickly and efficiently. Service calls and support issues can be submitted via e-mail, our customer web portal, or by telephone.
