Microminder CS’s Network Security Services

Leverage Microminder’s innovative, tailored network security services to safeguard your network, instead of relying on traditional, inefficient tools.

Next-Gen Firewalls:
Traditional firewalls inspect each incoming and outgoing traffic to block malicious traffic and grant only legitimate traffic. Although these firewalls can protect network systems to an extent, typically from (OSI layers 2-4), they lack comprehensive protection and capabilities like application awareness, intrusion prevention, and deeper reporting.

Microminder’s next-gen firewalls (NGF), on the other hand, provide deeper protection to your network and data, including sensitive business information. It evaluates each data packet’s content deeply and offers application awareness, threat intelligence, advanced intrusion detection and prevention (IDS/IPS), and detailed reports for analysis.
Our NGF works through layers 2-7 and keeps learning and updating itself from its threat database to provide more security against newer threats.
Network Access Controls:
Access permissions and controls to your network, systems, and data are dangerous as they lead to unwanted data exposures and insider threats.
Microminder’s Network Access Control (NAC) provides powerful authentication and authorisation controls like identity and access management (IAM) and role-based access controls (RBAC) to prevent unauthorised access. It ensures only the authorised users and devices with an appropriate level of permissions access your network and resources.
VPN:
Security risks have increased as organisations adopt remote work and BYOD policies. Users may connect to your network using weaker channels or public Wi-Fi from unsecured endpoints, leading to vulnerabilities and attacks.
Microminder’s VPN allows users to connect to their organisational network securely and access data to prevent intrusions and data theft. It encrypts data between the two points via tunnelling protocols and asks a user to authenticate themselves to gain access permissions.
Endpoint Security:
Computers, mobile devices, servers, embedded devices, and other endpoints in your organisation network house your business and customer data. Securing them must be your top priority.
Make your endpoints impenetrable to threats with Microminder’s endpoint security services that detect, contain, analyse, and eliminate attacks like malware, phishing, zero-day attacks, and more.
ZTNA:
Trust no one when it comes to cybersecurity. Attacks don't just happen from outside, sometimes they originate from within your organisation.
Stay ahead of both internal and external threat vectors with Microminder’s Zero-Trust Network Access (ZTNA). It’s one of our network access control solutions, granting users a minimal level of access controls and permissions enough to fulfil their tasks. This prevents excessive data exposure, permission abuse, and infiltrations.
