Network Protection for Collaboration Servers

Norman Network Protection for collaboration servers is a security gateway to protect collaboration systems as Microsoft SharePoint and other collaboration servers against malware. Documents sent and received by the collaboration server which include malicious content will be quarantined, and source address blocked by the gateway to hinder others to access the infected data.

  • Prevent disrupted collaboration databases
  • Protect against malware infected documents
  • Prevent distribution of malware
  • Real time statistics and reports
  • No latency
  • Easy to install

Special care and attention needs to go into the choice of antivirus software for database based applications. Neither local antivirus nor purely signature-based antivirus scanners are considered ideal. Local antivirus software may be risky and can create discrepancy between the actual file system and the databases if files are quarantined at the file system level only. Also considering that local antivirus signature file are getting larger, and with multiple updates daily, will affect the performance on busy collaboration systems while scanning for malware.

Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server does not affect the server performance because its install at the front of the collaboration server farm. This makes customers able to continue high performance network and server operations with complete transparency without any potential malicious infections neither any disrupted databases.

The solution is independent of network topology and other networking units. It provides value from the second it is installed in the network. Norman Network Protection protects collaboration servers as Microsoft SharePoint and Alfresco systems against malware and includes a powerful management and reporting tool to provide efficient status and reports on the malware situation.

Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server is a fully transparent malware gateway and can be installed easily at any point on the company network, such as the input and output of a database application. Proactive components like the behaviour-based Norman SandBox® reduce the risk of infection from unknown malware. This simulates a computer, including its environment, in which unknown files are allowed to execute their commands unhindered. All activities of those files are monitored and evaluated and the file and path are disabled if necessary.

Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server scans those protocols that are susceptible to malware, including HTTP, CIFS/SMB, FTP, SMTP, POP3, RPC, TFTP and IRC in real-time. Documents are scanned during both upload and download.

Simplicity

By simply connecting the Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server in-line into your network, you can protect the entire infrastructure from the Internet, or protect business critical areas of your network from being infected by malicious code like viruses, spyware, trojans and worms.

Minimal latency

Traditional security gateways use proxy solutions and these solutions have several drawbacks. The most important consequence is the latency in data traffic created by the proxy itself. A proxy holds back the entire stream of files, something Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server avoids by being transparent to the traffic. NNP lets the data pass through, only holding back the necessary data needed to perform a malware scan.

Prevention

When Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server detects a malicious file in transfer on your network, it actively terminates the file transfer and blocks the specific network path to prevent other users or systems from accessing the same file.

Easy deployment

Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server operates on the packet layer in the network, and is transparent to the IP traffic. No IP reconfiguration of your network is needed, just add an address for the administration interface and the Norman Network Protection is instantly protecting your network.

Reporting

Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server gives you real time statistics and reports, presenting detected and blocked malware, system statistics and network statistics. The Norman Network Protection message handling system can send you incident emails and report to an operations center by using SNMP.

ROI

The solution is independent of network topology and other networking units. It provides value from the second it is installed in the network. Norman Network Protection Collaboration Server protects against viruses, worms, trojans, spyware, and other malware and includes a powerful management and reporting tool to provide efficient status and reports on the malware situation in the network. 

Proaktiv antivirusbeskyttelse

Unik proaktiv teknologi for å gi våre kunder den best mulige beskyttelse mot ondsinnet programvare

Denne kraftige og enestående sikkerhetsløsningen benytter Norman DNA Matching, Norman Exploit Detection og Norman SandBox®, den verdenskjente teknologien for virksomhetsbeskyttelse.

Norman SandBox® er en revolusjonerende teknikk for proaktiv deteksjon av ny og ukjent malware. Det er et virtuelt miljø hvor programmer kan operere i trygge omgivelser uten at de påvirker de reele prosesser, programfiler eller nettverksomgivelser. Dersom et program utfører handlinger som SandBox oppfatter som mistenkelige, vil programmet bli "tagget" som et ondsinnet program.
Norman DNA Matching er en proaktiv teknologi og metode for identifikasjon av den virale profilen til alle typer skadeprogram. Arvet eller gjenbrukt programmeringskode gjenkjennes i nye skadeprogrammer, noe som gir unik proaktiv beskyttelse mot trusler. Ny malware som ser ut som om den er en mutasjon av malware kjent fra før, er sannsynligvis i samme familie, og blir dermed identifisert som ondsinnet av Norman DNA Matching.
Norman Exploit Detection er en teknologi for å detektere skadeprogrammer som utnytter sårbarheter i en rekke mye benyttede dokumenttyper som OLE2 (Office-dokumenter), MDB (Access), WMF (Windows Media File), JPEG (bilder), RIFF (Windows media meta-format) og SWF (Flash). Teknologien tillater at flere typer kan legges til dersom slike også blir misbrukt av malware. Norman Exploit Detection er ikke avhengig av at en spesiell sårbarhet er oppdaget og analysert.
