AlertEnterprise in ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards (Learn More, Video)

The linkage of IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technology) creates many opportunities to enhance operational effectiveness and deliver real-time information to the enterprise.

All of these benefits however do come with a downside.

When combined, they can open up new vulnerabilities and expose new methods of being compromised by internal or external threat actors.

As the 16 critical infrastructure sectors become increasingly mission vital to today’s businesses and consumers, it is important to maintain continuity of service, while continuing to drive additional security efficiency into business operations.

AlertEnterprise delivers security solutions that allow companies to continue to streamline their operations while protecting the most critical operating assets from complex threats that include cybersecurity, insider threat, as well as external attacks.

The AlertEnterprise solution extends across multi‐vendor applications to deliver the most complete view of threats and vulnerabilities while connecting applications which otherwise operate in silos.

With the widespread deployments of video surveillance and other sensor systems, detecting, identifying and responding to incidents in a timely manner is a huge challenge.

Having a system in place that can eliminate false alarms, speed up response times and deliver guided response to incident handlers and responders can help mitigate serious adverse impact to the enterprise.

AlertEnterprise provides a comprehensive solution that provides security for IT, Physical, and OT solutions.

The Sentry solution is designed to not only assess systems security, but it can prevent potential future threats.

AlertEnterprise provides system administrators with ability to safeguard critical systems and ensure readiness by only allowing access to pre-vetted users.

Controls can be put in place to automatically revoke access for users with expired training.

The Enterprise Sentry solution provides accurate correlation of cyber, physical and industrial events from multiple sources like US-CERT, Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (ISAC), iDefense and other intelligence sources.

This helps ensure all potential threats are blocked before they reach critical infrastructure networks.

With the AlertEnterprise Sentry solution, system administrators can easily automate cyber and SCADA systems(s) security.

In addition, Enterprise Sentry provides visual risk detection with geospatial monitoring, event correlation and alerting accelerate informed response, while delivering true situational awareness and incident response.

Enterprise Sentry™ Family from AlertEnterprise is a collection of products that deliver a unified Situational Awareness and Security Intelligence Suite that operates across the domains of IT, Cybersecurity, Physical Security and SCADA Industrial Control Systems.

Features

  • Centralized view of complex threats, events and incidents across cyber, physical and operational domains.
  • Automated decision support – prioritizes response based on risk and criticality.
  • Built-in response scripts guide responders on policy-based procedures to follow
  • Leverages existing physical security investments like access control and CCTV / Video Surveillance

Benefits

  • Aggregated Information from Vulnerability Scanners, Firewalls, Log Management and Intrusion Detection Systems
  • Rule-based intelligence to extract valuable security and operational information and deliver a super- dashboard that tells you what is actually going on
  • Include non-cyber clues such as human identity, physical location, critical assets, time of entry etc., to to eliminate false positives and validates alerts and events.

Sentry iPSIM delivers these capabilities and more.

Cybersecurity for Corporate and Industrial environments has taken on a greater level of urgency.

Complex threats require more sophisticated solutions.

Sentry Cyber SCADA/ICS can integrate with a variety of security automation tools.

Additionally, it includes events, alerts and alarms from SCADA/ICS to provide a holistic critical infrastructure protection solution.

Consolidated cyber, human and asset intelligence delivers un-matched abilities to correlate threats and deliver smart decision support to interdict events before they occur, and mitigate the impact from incidents that are underway.

AlertEnterprise at a Glance

Companies have armed themselves to the hilt with all kinds of security automations tools – VA Scanners, Anti-Virus, Malware Detection, CMDBs, IDS, IPS, SIEM, ESM and many others.

The plain truth is that attacks still continue.

They are getting more frequent and more damaging. There are too many dashboards to look at.

Key pieces of information lie in different systems, by the time the security teams piece together the puzzle and find the few key nuggets of information, its too late.

The attack is done and it is over.

Traditional PSIM (Physical Security Information Management) solutions are not capable of addressing this problem either.

These solutions lack the intelligence and richness that comes from contextual awareness of correlating events, alerts and risks across multiple domains like IT Systems, Physical Entry events and Operational Systems.

Being able to associate a risk score with a person’s identity, role and what critical assets they have access to, empowers security managers and SOC (Security Operations Center) personnel to make informed decisions specific to each situation.

AlertEnterprise software provides true prevention of insider threats, fraud, theft, sabotage and acts of terrorism by overcoming vulnerabilities and blended threats across Information Technology, Operational Technology (OT), Physical Access Systems and Industrial Control Systems.

Purpose-built for protecting critical infrastructure in key sectors, such as utilities, oil and gas, airports, federal agencies, financials, pharmaceuticals and healthcare, AlertEnterprise solutions deliver industry-specific situational awareness with continuous monitoring and incident management.
