Jun, 2001 : Interliant Launches Remote Firewall Service


📅 - Hosting and ASP specialists Interliant, Inc. announced today that it has launched an addition to its INIT Security portfolio of managed security services. The INIT Remote Managed Firewall Service (MFS) will let customers outsource the design, implementation, monitoring, management and maintenance of their on-site firewall hardware and software to Interliant security engineers.

Designed to address the needs of clients who need to implement a security solution but have little or no security infrastructure in place, INIT Remote MFS adds industrial-strength professional services to protect against malicious intruders and potential hackers. The company will also provide leasing options for the required hardware and software, rolling the cost into one monthly fee.
The offering includes an initial security assessment, design, implementation, 24x7 monitoring and management, logging and reporting, policy management, firewall updates, as well as quarterly performance audits and tuning. In addition to the INIT Remote MFS offering, Interliant has a broad array of professional security services that include the hosted INIT Managed Firewall Service, vulnerability assessment and intrusion detection services, authentication services, as well as secure virtual private network (VPN) design, implementation, and management.
The INIT Remote MFS offering allows companies to leverage the expertise of Interliant's certified professionals to strengthen existing, on-site security infrastructure to ensure round-the-clock protection and assurance. In response to growing concerns about the threats posed by computer hackers, companies have invested significant sums of money in top-of-the-line security hardware and software to protect their e-Business. Interliant says most companies are unable to develop and maintain the in-house capabilities needed to manage and maintain these robust infrastructures.
"Even the best security hardware and software quickly become ineffective if you don't have the personnel to appropriately manage and monitor the infrastructure," said Peggy Campbell, Senior Product Manager for INIT Security, at Interliant. "Interliant's INIT Remote Managed Firewall Service provides companies with a greater level of security than most of them can achieve on their own plus the peace of mind that allows them to focus on their core business needs."
The INIT Remote Managed Firewall Service is available immediately from Interliant.
