Application Security
Applications are the lifeblood of your business, but they’re also a major security concern with hackers targeting them in increasingly sophisticated ways. Application security is the use of software, hardware, and procedural methods to prevent security flaws in applications and protect them from external threats. To safeguard applications around-the-clock, our approach layers multiple security technologies with access to unmatched expertise.
Cloud Security
Adoption of SaaS applications, IaaS & PaaS services has added a new dimension to cybersecurity concerns. Organisations with a ‘cloud-first’ mentality need to carefully consider how they will maintain visibility over application usage and traffic, control over user access and actions, mitigate against threats and the risk of data leakage.
Compliance
Whether preparing for the GDPR or already required to comply with existing directives, organisations face the ongoing challenges presented by becoming and remaining compliant with their regulatory authorities. Assessing requirements to meet compliance standards and performing regular audits of changes to processes or security controls soon becomes overwhelming for compliance officers and supporting staff. Orange Cyberdefense has a range of compliance services, a reliable and cost-effective means of ensuring compliance requirements are attained and upheld.
Digital Security
From shoulder surfing to keylogging software, static usernames and passwords can be compromised all too easily. As unstoppable digitalisation hurls us towards an online, mobile and application-centric world, two-factor authentication is essential to ensure only authorised users are accessing business-critical systems, services and data.
Endpoint Security
With the latest cybersecurity attacks and breaches, it has become evident that the endpoint has become the latest battleground. Desktops and mobile devices face increasingly complex and numerous attacks by malicious software (malware) authors attempting to gain an entry point into the network to exfiltrate data or, through ransomware, for financial benefit. Attackers are not only attacking vulnerabilities in endpoints but are exploiting features within well-known applications. Recent research from Orange Cyberdefense has shown that exploiting features within common Microsoft Office applications have a close to 100% success rate.
Firewall Security
Next generation firewalls consolidate many powerful security capabilities, but this also exacerbates their need for expert management, monitoring and configuration. Our service provides access to essential Firewall expertise, with around-the-clock support that strengthens security, makes the most of market-leading technologies and frees staff to prioritise other business goals.
Identity & Access Management
Today’s interconnected, mobile-driven world means that clients, employees, and other stakeholders need access to information and business data but allowing remote access to business assets requires the balancing of accessibility & security. Remote access policies should, therefore, control who is accessing internal systems, the device being used, the security status of the device and the location from which access is being requested.
Network Security
Maintaining a secure network is a complex exercise requiring accurate configuration of security devices as well as ongoing monitoring of the device’s performance. Secure networks also require the ongoing logging of activity and regular testing for threats and exploitable weaknesses as part of a robust vulnerability management program.
Value-added reseller
Orange Cyberdefense also partners with many of the world’s leading cybersecurity vendors including Check Point Software Technologies, F5 Networks, Palo Alto Networks and Fortinet
Vulnerability Management
Without knowing where vulnerabilities exist, organisations leave themselves open to multiple attack vectors and unable to prioritise resource or investment in the areas attackers would find the simplest to exploit. Effective, false-positive free, vulnerability discovery is the first step that needs to be taken in any vulnerability management and patching program.
Web Security
‘Web’ has become one of the primary attack vectors. Companies offering web services are under attack from SQL-infection or Cross-site scripting attacks. Internal users fall victim to malicious websites or drive-by downloads. The need to defend from web-based attacks is an increasing priority and is set to become even more important as inter-connected, web-enabled devices dominate the landscape.
