Network Appliances

SureCloud produces a range of network appliances for customer premise deployment. These devices, aptly named Unified Security Appliances, come pre-installed with a variety of security solutions that perform the following functions:

• Vulnerability Scanning
• Network Intrusion Detection
• Log File Monitoring and Analysis
• Event Correlation

Appliances are available in different configurations (processing power and storage) to cater for the workload, resilience and redundancy requirements of the client. For maximum security the appliance are built with a custom hardened Linux operating system. Please contact SureCloud sales for more information about Appliance configurations.

Wireless Appliances (Analyzers)

SureCloud produces light weight Wireless Analyzers which function as Wireless Intrusion Detection Systems. The analyzers can be used inside or outside and have a switchable high gain antenna, meaning that typically 1 analyzer can be used to monitor up to 2 floors of a modern building or a 500m2 area outside. The analyzers use PoE (power over ethernet) so can be placed conveniently without the need for trailing power cables. For maximum security the analyzers are built with a custom hardened Linux operating system.

Cloud Architecture

SureCloud primarily operates on a Software-as-a-Service model, central to which are a number of Secure Operations Centers (SOCs). These securely host a range of information security management applications and associated data, which are made available to our clients over the internet via secure connections. Appliances, deployed on client premises (or remotely in SOCs for external needs), scan and probe our clients’ networks and web applications for vulnerabilities and security events, and securely transmit this information back to the SOCs. Security is of paramount importance to SureCloud – as such the entire Architecture has been implemented with best practice security processes and controls recommended in standards such as ISO 27001 / 27002 and guidance from the Cloud Security Alliance.
