OVERVIEW

Being properly licensed is becoming increasingly important to businesses and organizations today. Purchasing the correct license from the correct programme is a unique challenge faced by IT directors and procurement officers, and the consequences of getting this wrong can be substantial. Guidance in the procurement process is commonly sought from software suppliers to manage exposure to the risk of either being over licensed, under licensed or incorrectly licensed. We provide the structure within which correct license purchases can be made, any time and without needing to wait for the manual quoting process. Whilst our expertise is still available to all clients when required, we offer an alternative autonomous procurement option when this is more suitable.

AUTOMATED SOFTWARE LICENSE PROCUREMENT

We make software licensing procurement easy.Through the understanding that the growing complexity of software licensing brings your procurement team new challenges. To simplify the buying process and ensure you always get it right, we offer comprehensive licensing procurement and contract management functionality via a custom-built portal. At no cost to you, this portal not only helps reduce your procurement costs, it also guarantees the quality of purchases against your organization’s procurement directives and rules. It does this by making available only the appropriate software licenses for your organization, ensuring a consistent infrastructure.

OVERVIEW

Organizations today are interacting more than ever with their customers, employees and partners through websites and applications. This increased web presence represents a high value target for today’s advanced denial-of-service (DoS) and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. With DDoS attack remediation averaging $500,000, organizations need fast, simple and effective protection that can scale to block the largest, and most advanced, attacks. Managed DDoS Protection allows organizations to defend their web presence, preserve sales revenue and safeguard their company and reputation. DDoS attacks are increasing as attackers all over the world adopt this weapon. A 2016 Data Breach Investigations Report found that DDoS incidents had doubled from 2013 to 2014 and cyber criminals try out new attacks all the time.

Driving this surge in DDoS attacks are both hacktivists and attackers for hire. They can threaten virtually any organization at any time by blasting servers with tons of data to overload and bring systems crashing down. Cyber criminals take aim with their botnets of malware-infected computers to wreak havoc – no matter your company’s size, location or industry. But we can help bolster your defenses. Our security experts have years of DDoS protection experience, and we’re ready to help you mitigate DDoS attacks and protect your business from the damaging effects. If your web presence is taken down by a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, up time isn’t the only thing you’ll lose. Customers and revenue may be lost too. But we can help you stop DDoS attacks in their tracks by putting up strong defenses. With our DDoS protection services, you’ll have better peace of mind knowing your internet and other web-connected systems are protected from the latest DDoS attacks.

DDOS ATTACK MITIGATION AND REMEDIATION

There’s typically no warning, so every second counts. When cyber criminals send a DDoS attack to flood your servers and turn your business upside down, you have to be ready to fight back at a moment’s notice. You need fast DDoS threat detection to identify the attack and prevent it from taking down your web presence and your business. With DDoS Shield – a high-capacity, cloud-based DDoS protection service – you can quickly reroute DDoS traffic and keep your IT resources readily available.

DDoS protection appliances can identify and handle large amounts of traffic trying to harm your business. Then it can quickly scale to control even large DDoS attacks no matter which carrier or internet service provider you use. And it handles attacks against most internet-connected services – web, e-mail, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and more. DDoS Shield can be customized to align with your risk management policies. You can use your existing hardware to maintain routing control of your IP traffic. And if your own DDoS mitigation services get overwhelmed, you can easily send your traffic to DDoS the DDoS protection appliance.

CYBERCRIME

Modern cybercrime is a world-wide epidemic and the shortage of trained security professionals is at an all–time high; partnering with an MSSP has become a security best practice for organizations that want to protect themselves from the latest threats and attacks. Choosing the right managed security services provider is critical. Our DDoS assessment services will help you with evaluating and choosing the right DDoS network security strategy to extend your security team, protect your organization, and help optimize your security resources. We review key areas that need to be considered when making critical decisions about specific security solutions that are must-haves for today’s advanced threat environment.
