Addressing Cloud Security
Cloud security needs are virtually the same as any other computer network security challenge. View our video blog to Mark Teter addressing the topic of cloud security.
Sourcefire
Sourcefire is a world leader in intrusion prevention, transforming the way organizations manage and minimize network security risks and threats.
The Sourcefire 3D System provides intelligent, dynamic network security products that adapt to real-time threats and changes, allowing full protection for networks before, during, and after an attack. Sourcefire also offers open source Snort®, the de facto standard in intrusion prevention and the foundation of the 3D System, and open source ClamAV®, one of the most commonly used anti-malware products in the world.
The award-winning Sourcefire 3D System is comprised of two purpose-built appliance product lines—Sourcefire Defense Center and Sourcefire 3D Sensors:
-
Sourcefire Defense Center is a powerful, yet easy-to-use centralized management console that correlates threats against network and vulnerability intelligence. Defense Center provides centralized command and control of Sourcefire 3D Sensors, including centralized event aggregation and 3D Sensor policy administration.
-
Sourcefire 3D Sensors are fault-tolerant, purpose-built appliances available with throughputs from 5Mbps up to 10Gbps. 3D Sensors passively aggregate network and user intelligence while defending the network against internal and external threats. Each 3D Sensor is capable of running Sourcefire IPS, RNA, RUA, and NetFlow Analysis modules.
3D Sensor Modules
Each Sourcefire 3D Sensor is capable of running any combination of the following four software components:
- Sourcefire IPS (Intrusion Prevention System)
- Sourcefire RNA (Real-time Network Awareness)
- Sourcefire RUA (Real-time User Awareness)
- Sourcefire NetFlow Analysis
