Managed Security Services Optional Features

Secure Wireless Access

Threat Detection System

Threats to your network's security are not as easy to spot as they once were. Malicious software is often designed to be undetectable. New viruses are constantly in circulation and keeping up with them requires rapid detection and distribution of appropriate anti-virus solutions to limit the window of opportunity for them to infect your systems. Mobile users can be infected while they are away from your secure network—at home or on the road. Your Managed Firewall Services with its constantly updated anti-virus databases will stop nearly all malicious software before it reaches your network, but occasionally problems can get inside your network and will need to be detected and eliminated right away.

Our security experts will help design a wireless solution for your business that is highly secure and can remain so even when providing guest access. We can help deploy wireless services that enable guests to connect to your wireless network and have access to the Internet or email -- but without having access to your business-critical data.Threats to your network's security are not as easy to spot as they once were.

Your Managed Firewall Services with its constantly updated anti-virus databases will stop nearly all malicious software before it reaches your network, but occasionally problems can get inside your network and will need to be detected and eliminated right away. To protect your network from the inside, our Threat Detection System continuously examines your network and detects any suspicious activity. Each day our Threat Detection System examines millions of event records received from firewalls all over the country. Our automated systems sift through these records and use them to help learn what your normal network usage patterns are and what would constitute abnormal usage that may indicate a problem. Often the only indication of a problem is a simple change in the behavior of a computer from one day to the next. For example, if a computer that never sends any email suddenly starts sending a large quantity of emails, it is mostly likely infected with malicious software and will trigger an event in our systems. There are dozens of tests we perform every few minutes and every hour to determine if there are threats to your business network. Once our systems determine there is a potential problem, a security analyst is alerted who will then investigate the events to determine if the threat is real or not. If the incident is determined to be a problem, we immediately contact you or your designated systems administrator to resolve the issue.

Multiple Virtual Private Network (VPN) Connections

An optional feature of your Managed Firewall Service is the support for Multiple VPNs. If you have more than one location or employees who work from multiple locations such as home, on the road or from customer or vendor locations, Bright House Networks Business Solutions can provide a VPN solution with your Managed Firewall Services that is right for your company.

Content Filtering

Utilizing SonicWALL's content filtering technology, we can determine how employees use your network. Then you can determine if they are accessing objectionable sites, and whether certain sites should be blocked. Plus, you can determine if you should control their ability to access and use streaming media, Peer-to-Peer networks and Instant Messaging. Benefits include:

Increased worker productivity
Reduced legal risks from inappropriate web browsing
Increased network bandwidth

Wireless Hot Spot Services

Bright House Networks Business Solutions can help retail and restaurant organizations deploy "hot spot" capabilities that allow them to offer Internet services to customers. Now your company can provide Internet services to customers through your own custom login/consent page. We can help you create and deploy your consent page and provide statistics such as the number of unique users during a specific time period. You can use the same network to provide secure connections from remote locations to your corporate network.
