As long as your organisation s network is connected to the Internet, a firewall is your primary defence against intrusions. Cyber-criminals and their tools are becoming more sophisticated, so individual hackers need less expertise to access sensitive data. Your firewall plays the all-important role of preventing unauthorised access... to your networks. The effort and investment required to implement comprehensive firewall security is significant. Devoting your IT resources for this purpose is suboptimal. It makes business sense to outsource the entire task of network security. BSNL IDC Hosted Firewall Service affords you peace of mind on the security front, allowing you to focus on your business. This is a managed solution, meaning that we take care of the software licenses, hardware, and management of the security system all the way to monitoring and reporting. With a centralised solution, you get better information security at a lower operational cost compared to an onpremise setup. Your network is secured against the entire range of threats and attacks originating from the Internet. The Service also prevents sensitive internal data from reaching the outside. Dedicated, 24x7 monitoring identifies threats before they reach your network. The Service offers unparalleled performance, and scalability for large-enterprise as well as small-business networks. With a managed security solution, your protection is always up to date. You are protected against emerging threats, as well as persistent and dynamic attacks.

Application and user policies: Beyond firewall functionality, the Service gives you granular control over applications, data, and user access. You can assign role-based privileges, defining and enforcing policies for almost any application on your network. High Availability: The firewall is configured in Active/Active failover mode, so there is no Service downtime or operational interruption. SSL and IPv6: The Service supports SSLencrypted traffic inspection and IPv6 for all firewall functions. Antispam capability: Spam messages and malicious attachments generated by automated systems are detected, quarantined, and blocked. Logs and reports: You get access to detailed network usage / performance reports via a secure portal. VPN functionality: Integrated VPN functionality provides secure communications across networks and between individual hosts. The firewall scans and secures all VPN traffic. WAN Optimisation: This capability accelerates applications over your WAN by intelligently reducing the amount of data that needs to move between applications and servers, this improves... application performance and reduces network congestion. Management and administration: By setting up access based on IP addresses, you can control how much traffic reaches your network, and from which locations. Firewall Change Management Software allows you to keep the firewall always configured according to corporate security policy. Data Loss Prevention (DLP): DLP technology uses pattern matching to identify sensitive data, such as credit card numbers, that is moving along the network. It blocks the transmission of such information, and provides audit trails that aid in policy compliance. You can configure the actions to be performed when suspicious activity occurs. Business Benefits Here is a broad comparison of a traditional on-premise firewall versus BSNL IDC Hosted Firewall Service. Initial investment Maintenance / management costs On-premise firewall High Costs include procuring of software licenses and hardware, hiring and training administrators and other staff High Requires skilled administrative and support staff for hardware and software maintenance and updating BSNL IDC Managed Firewall Service Zero You pay for firewall capabilities as a utility, while retaining full control over configuration Low The Service is supported 24x7 from BSNL s global command centre (GCC) experts; software upgrades are part of the Service Ease of implementation Low Need to carefully plan scalability, features required, and risk to business from vulnerabilities High The Service can be configured in a matter of hours, with choice of add-ons as the only variable Security administration overhead Regulatory compliance Significant Use of internal IT staff is inefficient Variable Need to rely on administrators to ensure security policy compliance Low Automated patch and release management leads to optimised workloads Ensured Logs are retained for an appropriate, stipulated time period, ensuring regulatory compliance
Optional Features Antivirus / Antispyware In addition to the firewall and other functionalities of the Service, you can optionally add on an antivirus/antispyware engine. This includes the traditional proxybased antivirus database option, and a high-performance, flow-based option. The latter allows quick scanning of files of any size, while maintaining high levels of performance. Flow-based file scanning also searches the contents of compressed files to detect hidden threats. With the flexibility to choose your antivirus engine, you can balance performance and security requirements for your environment. Intrusion Prevention Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) technology provides protection against current and emerging network-level threats. In addition to signature-based detection, where traffic matches the signature of an identified threat, IPS performs anomaly-based detection. Here, the system alerts you to network behaviour that seems abnormal, and which might therefore be an attack attempt. Essentially, this provides an extra layer of protection by blocking not only known threats, but also network traffic that might comprise... a threat.
