We are also aware that security of a network does not complete with an IPS alone. Therefore we have spent years in developing utilities that make our IDS/IPS much more effective by auto configuring for each of our customers. With our sensors for AWS and other Cloud based servers we are closing in on all end points for better security”, says Amar Rathore, SVP Business Development. “We have been one the first businesses to trial these Cloud Services IDS/IPS sensors. The installation is a breeze and we are currently managing twelve sensors centrally from a physical TMC in our in house demonstration center. We are very pleased as this will enable us to go back to many of our customers that run their applications in Cloud including on AWS EC2 instances and help them meet PCI and other compliance requirements. This is great news for our customers" says, Nathan Millar, GM at a CounterSnipe Sales Partner, Cyber Security Services.
