Network Defense and Testing

As businesses increasingly rely on confidential internal and third-party information, the need to exercise due care in the protection of these assets becomes critical. Theft or disclosure of these critical data could damage your reputation or result in loss of revenue. Even if your information is not of a sensitive nature, your network could be hijacked for illegal activities, for which you could be held liable.

Network and System Security

Pixelogiq provides a variety of traditional security services for both wired and wireless networks. By providing services such as firewall configuration, network segmentation, malware detection, access control implementation, and strong authentication, your systems will have a better chance of repelling attacks from both inside and outside the network perimeter. We will even sweep for rogue wireless access points.

Intrusion Detection

How do you know that your network defenses are effective? If you are not monitoring the network for anomalous activity, you may not discover a breach until it's too late. A network intrusion detection system can provide real-time monitoring and asynchronous auditing of network activity, even on a segmented network. These network IDSes, when properly monitored, will allow you to detect and respond to attacks in progress.

Encryption Solutions

It has been said that over 90% of security issues could be addressed through the proper use of encryption. Pixelogiq can help implement a variety of encryption solutions, including SSL- and IPsec-based VPNs, laptop encryption, secure backups, public-key cryptography, and digital signatures. Using a combination of open source and commercial applications, we can help find affordable cryptographic solutions for every need.

Penetration Testing

The surest way to test the effectiveness of your countermeasures is to challenge them. With the permission of your senior management, Pixelogiq can attempt to bypass your defenses, much as a malicious hacker would, in white-, gray-, and black-box scenarios. We combine network penetration methods with social engineering to determine where unpatched vulnerabilities may lie, allowing you to address the situation.
