NSFOCUS Introduces New Capability to Identify Cyber Risk Exposure

September 17, 2018 | Adeline Zhang

SANTA CLARA, Calif., September 18, 2018 – NSFOCUS, the leader in holistic hybrid security solutions, today announced the launch of NSFOCUS Exposed Internet Surface Analysis (EISA), a new capability to address the ever-expanding cyber security risk faced by organizations today. EISA identifies malicious activity of rogue IPs, ports and services that might be compromised and hidden within the organization’s network providing immediate insights to prioritize remediation and block further malicious activity from within the network.

Organizations have rapidly embraced digital transformation to create new business models and ecosystems, deliver new products and services, and operate more efficiently in the digital economy. As a result, new digital platforms such as cloud, mobile, IoT devices and systems of all types – from corporate conference systems to power grids – are now network connected and exposed to cyber risks and attackers. NSFOCUS EISA is built to address these risks by searching for unknown IPs, hijacked IPs, unknown ports open on known IPs, and the services running on those ports. Integrated with the NSFOCUS Threat Intelligence (NTI) Subscription Service, EISA determines if there is any evidence of malicious activity and provides a risk assessment analysis for mitigation.

“Cyber risk exposure has become increasingly difficult to manage, as organizations are challenged with protecting critical assets while managing the sheer number of internet connections which expand its attack surface,” said Attley Ng, Senior Vice President, Asia Pacific, NSFOCUS. “As a new feature in the NSFOCUS suite of solutions, EISA helps organizations to understand their cyber risk exposure in real-time, allowing IT teams to develop remediation plans and intrusion prevention policies to block further malicious activity. Paired with NSFOCUS Threat Intelligence, EISA reassures and benchmarks each organization’s cyber risk exposure, allowing them to make better business and technology decisions.”

The NSFOCUS EISA can be run once or as a subscription service with various levels of monitoring services to meet different requirements. It can be used by organizations with the smallest internet footprint to multi-national businesses that own IP ranges all over the world. Beyond just identifying cyber risk exposure, EISA helps organizations to reduce operations and maintenance costs by mitigating costs lost to rogue systems and services.

NSFOCUS EISA is available as an additional service with all NSFOCUS security solutions. Working together, NSFOCUS hybrid security solutions obtain the latest reputation data of high-risk IP addresses and automatically generate related protection policies to effectively block attacks, provide hour-level security assurance, and continually improve security posture.

NSFOCUS Exposed Internet Surface Analysis will be available on September 18, 2018. The product will be officially launched and previewed at GovernmentWare (GovWare), Southeast Asia’s premier conference and showcase for cyber security. GovWare is the cornerstone event of the Singapore International Cyber Week, featuring the latest trends in technology, organizational implementation and user perspectives with regards to cyber security.

NSFOCUS can easily augment existing threat intelligence through integration with other threat intelligence offerings or SIEM deployments, and across NSFOCUS’ network and application security products.
