Up in the Clouds: How Cloud-Enabled Technology Saves Time & Money

Intrusion Detection Solutions (IDS) were once a popular feature for many corporate networks—reporting threats and giving IT a detailed and forensic security view of the network.

Over time, IDS got a bad reputation, criticized for being expensive to maintain and complicated to manage.  Companies slowly ditched the solution, not feeling it was a necessity to keep corporate networks secure and not wanting to pay the overhead costs associated with it.

Now, organizations are revisiting IDS, as these solutions provide the information and reporting functionality required to comply with regulations like PCI, Sarbox and HIPAA. However, traditional IDS solutions are still costly and complicated to manage.

Enter cloud-computing, which allows you to access data anytime, anywhere and removes costs associated with deployment and maintenance of physical infrastructures.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know the cloud has become arguably the most talked about transformational technology deployment in the last five years. The benefits of the cloud are vast; the most important being that agile deployment of new technology is much easier when it’s hosted within the cloud—a big win for the future of IDS.

The ease of deployment associated with cloud-enabled technology removes several of the issues associated with adopting and maintaining traditional IDS applications.

It removes internal resource drains on the IT staff, guarantees uptime and performance, and provides the robust monitoring and performance reports organizations require to comply with today’s dynamic regulatory environments.

Cymtec Scout is the market-leading cloud-enabled network IDS, bringing together the efficiency and the cost-effectiveness of the cloud with a critical security technology platform for threat visibility and compliance reporting.  Integration of the industry-leading Sourcefire VRT rules and definitions within the Cymtec Scout platform ensure the best detection and the most up-to-date threat signatures.  By layering the optional compliance monitoring and reporting portal on top of Cymtec Scout, your organization is guaranteed to have the most robust IDS solution and the complete audit/compliance and regulatory reporting available in the market today.

Its clear this is the future of technology, and though cloud computing has been around for some time, have you ever considered deploying your IDS in the cloud?
