At Studio 619 we specialize in network intrusion detection system (NIDS). We monitor traffic on a network looking for suspicious activity, which could be an attack or unauthorized activity. A large NIDS server can be set up on a backbone network, to monitor all traffic; or smaller systems can be set up to monitor traffic for a particular server, switch, gateway, or router.
In addition to monitoring incoming and outgoing network traffic, our NIDS server can also scan system files looking for unauthorized activity and to maintain data and file integrity. The NIDS server can also detect changes in the server core components. The NIDS server can also server a proactive role instead of a protective or reactive function. Possible uses include scanning local firewalls or network servers for potential exploits, or for scanning live traffic to see what is actually going on.
Our technical staff will scan and probe your network remotely, searching for vulnerabilities that could put network services at risk. A network engineer can also go onsite to check for any internal security issues making sure there is protection from both external and internal threats. The audit concludes with a written report indicating any vulnerabilities discovered. The technical staff can also research corrective measures to security issues, if needed.
Quotes for security audits are based on the size of the network and the number of services running. The number of vulnerabilities also plays an important role... the more security issues; the longer the audit will take. The final written report is designed to give you enough information so you will have a choice of using Studio 619, internal personnel or other outside consultants to work on any problems.
