Intelligent Technologies offers firewall protection at customer locations to guard sensitive network data from falling into the wrong hands. From our Service Management Center, ITI tracks firewalls around the clock, monitoring for unusual log events, policy violations and system status. Using industry leading firewall and IP-VPN technology, ITI encrypts all traffic as it traverses its backbone, providing remote users secure access to internal resources. ITI provides biweekly or monthly reports on firewall usage, maintains customer user databases and updates firewall policies, based on customer requests. Intrusion Detection Engines are designed not to interfere with network traffic flow while monitoring for signs of abuse and known "hacking attempts," called signatures. When a signature is detected, the engine reacts automatically to stop TCP traffic, records the event for future reference, and alerts ITI personnel, who take further action, if necessary. The mechanism allows more permissiveness while maintaining high levels of security and awareness. Engines may be installed on every network segment.
