NetGladiator is part of an overall Layered Security Approach. Learn more about Layered Security and how the NetGladiator fits in that approach. Review our Key Benefits, our Core Capabilities, and the Hardware Options available. For even more details, read our NetGladiator Data Sheet. At the Perimeter Level, NetGladiator implements Filtering and P2P Blocking security measures. At the Network Level, NetGladiator is inspecting Internet traffic across the network, which we call Traffic Pattern Blocking. If traffic patterns match defined NetGladiator patterns, whether P2P or web-application specific, traffic from the IP will be blocked. At the Hosts level, we provide Web Application Security by protecting your web servers from hackers and botnets. Any web application that has even a small amount of interactivity or back-end to it will benefit from NetGladiator’s features. NetGladiator uses Custom Patterns to block traffic specific to your environment. We support patterns looking for both time-based anomalies and repetitive behaviors, aligned with the Top 10 Application Security Risks from the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP Top 10). We quickly check for key patterns that show malicious intent under the assumption that those patterns will be tried eventually by an attacker. This way, data can seamlessly pass through, and your users will not incur performance problems. As part of the installation process, we offer a service which we believe is unique in the IPS space. We have security experts who are also white knights (friendly hackers) perform a Baseline Security Assessment to customize your NetGladiator configuration. Our white knights think through the information discovery process in the same way that a hacker would, enabling them to establish the correct set-up to thwart hackers. Because NetGladiator is custom-configured for your environment, you are alerted on meaningful intrusion attempts without false positive alerts. You do not need a team of IT people to sift through alerts, read reports, and make adjustments. (back to top)
