How are changes in ICT affecting approaches

The development of cloud technologies allows transferring corporate data, including sensitive data, using the services of cloud operators. However, the cloud environment in this case remains unmanageable for clients. Trust in cloud operators, in their qualifications is the main issue when using clouds today. Despite this, cloud services are developing actively, they have good prospects, which will soon be realized in the Russian market as well.

PC Week : to implementing firewalls?

A.A.: Traditional principles of network screening are tunisia whatsapp data a thing of the past. Almost all firewalls (FW) presented on the world market today have the prefixes NG (next generation device) or UTM (universal security gateway) in their names.

Suppliers of modern firewalls begin informing about their products by stating that these screens are not ordinary network packet analyzers, but software and hardware complexes that implement a large number (as many as possible!) of information security functions and services, capable of analyzing mail traffic, application operation and user behavior, counteracting DDoS attacks, and much more.

Modern threats are divided into known ones, which can be blocked precisely because we know what their signs are, and unknown ones, which can only be countered using analytical tools applied to rapidly changing large volumes of data on incidents, user behavior and applications collected around the world.

By the way, prompt delivery of data to modern network screening systems is built on cloud technologies. The operation of any NGFW and UTM device uses the results of the work of numerous information security specialists, who are united in research and analytical laboratories distributed around the world. The firewalls themselves are only the spearhead of counteraction to modern information security threats and at the same time part of numerous sensors about changes in the information security threat landscape for the aforementioned laboratories. So changes in network screening are quite justified.
