Every computer network should have at least one IDS system installed at the network boundary to protect and audit the data that flows both in and out of the network. The IDS should watch for attacks, data theft and other abuses. For large networks, and those networks with high security concerns, more systems should be deployed to help further protect each internal area.
Our IDS is custom built to fit the needs and functions of your network. Based upon the widely used Snort intrusion detection engine you benefit from an extensively supported and acclaimed IDS that ranks among the top products in it's field. Enjoy many additional custom features that make using Snort in the real world a breeze.

Features:

* Real-Time Network Monitoring
o With real-time monitoring you can watch the data that flows around your network and receive prioritized notifications on security, misuse and general issues on your networks. Let the LSP security team install an IDS solution for you and see the expertise that has made us No.1 in tri-state region for network security protection.
* Advanced Detection Rule Sets
o The power of an IDS is in it's rule set. Just like Antivirus software, if you are not up to date with the latest signatures you are vulnerable. Our experience dealing with network security on the frontline enables us to produce advanced & current rule sets that others in the industry just cannot supply. As new attack types are discovered we update the rule sets. Make sure you ask and update your rule sets frequently no matter whom you choose as your IDS vendor.
* Custom Rule Set Authoring
o When science becomes an art form.
Do you have a specific event you want logged or perhaps a specific file or file sets that must not leave specific network segments? As we write our own rules and understand how data moves about networks, let us write you a custom rule set that will enable your IDS to detect your specific network security concerns. We have many existing customers who have solved network related issues and crimes with a custom rule set developed by the security team at LSP.
* Passive or Aggressive Responses
o With a multi layered prioritized system for categorizing each rule hit we are able to offer custom event management and responses. The IDS can be set to block an IP address (aggressive mode) or monitor & report only (passive mode) or any combination of the two.
* Instant Notification & Reporting
o Receive instant, real-time alerts and hourly, daily and weekly reports via email, terminal or web interface. Alert data can also be sent to a database should you need to manage many systems centrally. Single event rules can be written to notify you of any predetermind, custom event. Customized searches of the data can be authored from the web interface.
* Live 24/7 Monitoring Options
o The annoying thing about hackers is that they don't keep office hours. Who's watching your network whilst you sleep?
With a subscription to our 24/7 monitoring service you can sleep soundly, safe in the knowledge that your network is being monitored. Unlike most monitoring services we have security engineers monitoring IDS & other security systems all day and night. Each event is dealt with as and when it happens and based upon an agreed response plan, we react as you would. Benefit from experienced security engineers reacting to attacks as if they were onsite and working for you.
* 'Security Storm' Protection
o With a subscription to our 24/7 Monitoring service you also receive the benefits of our 'Security Storm' Protection. Attacks come in trends and waves, almost like the weather in some respects. With our large base of security systems already deployed & monitored we often see an attack wave starting and can move to block subscribed systems before they begin to be attacked directly. Safety in numbers; batten down the hatches! Unlike Antivirus software, we can contact your system with an update instantly if necessary.
* Routing Capable Installation
o As with most products based upon a Linux kernel, routing capabilities can be built in. If you have a network with translated or routed segments, our IDS can be deployed to give you true protection without 'blind spots' and other common IDS deployment limitations. You may even consider replacing existing routers with our IDS and achieve two tasks with one node.
* Experienced Engineering Team
o The true value of network security is the minds and experience of who designs, implements and monitors it. Install your trust in LSP's security team whose experience stretches back to when network security first became an issue. Call us today and let us show you that we know what we're talking about.
* Free Baseline Monitoring Period
* Real-Time Network Monitoring

The world of Intrusion Detection is a recent addition to network security. There are many flavors of IDS you can opt for. Invest your security with the experts and buy a solution not a one-word answer.
