Today’s enterprise network has developed to become the corporate nerve centre for most organisations playing a critical role in virtually every aspect of the business operation. With the increasing affordability of 10Gb/s network technology, growing numbers of businesses are furthering their reliance on their networks by investing in the latest bandwidth hungry applications such as VoIP and multi-media streaming to help reduce costs and improve business efficiency.
At the same time new threats are emerging on a daily basis, which are constantly challenging the performance limitations of the range of point-security solutions deployed by many organisations to protect sensitive information stored across their network server real-estate.
Syphan enterprise network security solutions are designed specifically for today’s high-speed enterprise network environment offering the first integrated threat-protection technology capable of delivering true 10G performance across the full range of attack vectors.
The Syphan Integrated Threat Control technology offers comprehensive protection for enterprise networks, where it is most needed – in front of the network servers. Using patent-pending multi-dimensional parallel processing and FPGA technologies, Syphan is able to protect against the full range of multi-vector attacks, including the latest “low and slow” application layer stealth attacks, without introducing latency into the network.
True 10G performance
Although many technologies claim to offer network protection in the 10Gb/s network environment, Syphan is the world’s first technology to be able to deliver total packet inspection across the whole spectrum of IPS, DDoS, content filtering and firewall functionality, with no discernable impact on network performance speed. The ITC includes dual, full-duplex 10Gb/s network ports capable of supporting an aggregated 40 Gb/s wire-speed throughput.
Extensible and Scalable
Syphan’s ITC220 is based on the latest FPGA chip technology, which not only ensures the highest possible processing speeds yet, unlike ASIC or CPU based technologies, it can also be easily updated with the latest attack signatures as they arise. Using Syphan’s patented StealthTrap™ algorithms combined with open-source or custom ACL and IPS rule sets, the system is fully extensible to provide enterprise-wide protection. With its extensive virtualisation capability, the Syphan ITC220 scales to support over 500 virtual internal clients helping to reduce operational and management overheads, energy consumption and valuable rackspace for large enterprises.
Integrated Threat Control
With total packet inspection capability up to layer 7, the Syphan ITC220 includes the complete range of integrated security functionality needed to protect the network from malicious traffic including complex worms and other malware that can threaten the integrity of the network as well as DDoS mitigation and content monitoring features to prevent mis-use or disruption of Internet service availability. Uniquely, Syphan’s ground breaking technology also includes protection from the latest multi-staged attacks which are now being used to get round traditional network defence technology and strike at the core of the network application servers.
