Security Service

Sticking your head in the sand is one approach to the myriad of threats that your business faces every day.  Malware, spyware, hackers, key loggers, hijackers – the cyber threat is increasing and organizations of all sizes are the target of thousands of attacks every day.  Our approach entails building defense-in-depth layered security architecture around your applications and data to meet all regulatory and compliance requirements.  New products are being continuously introduced to battle the never ending threat.  Check out how we can assist you in taking a proactive approach to keeping your company assets safe.

Network Perimeter Security – All the studies indicate that security threats are only increasing year over year and even accelerating.  The days are past when businesses can take a reactive posture to protecting their data and more recently their computing infrastructure.  Jupiter-Gemini Consulting can build your organization a layered security perimeter (also called defense-in-depth) designed to proactively protect your data and IT assets from the “zero-day” attack.  Depending on your needs, we can recommend and implement either point solutions to enhance your existing security posture or combined unified threat management (UTM/XTM) solutions that provide a host of security tools usually deployed in a single gateway appliance.

Content Management & Data Leakage (DLP) – Content management, URL filtering, web filtering, application blocking.  Whatever term you use doesn’t matter.  The “Net” has changed the way we do business but it’s also exposed organizations to litigation based on inappropriate content viewing, lost productivity associated with social networking and exposure to malware, spyware and all the other “wares” that can affect your bottom line.  Whether you’re trying to keep your users focused on business operations or making sure your valuable information is not slipping out of your organization through the network, Jupiter-Gemini can assist you in identifying and implementing solutions that help you to sleep easy at night.

Intrusion Prevention – Every day thousands of new exploits are released into the wild of the Internet.   Many of these malicious threats are completely automated like cyber robots finding their way into your network.  Detecting and preventing an intrusion is more than simply deploying the traditional packet filter firewall.  There are a myriad of products available to organizations of all sizes designed to proactively prevent network intrusions.  Let our experienced team of security engineers assist you in assessing your needs and assisting you in selecting, testing and implementing the product that fits your needs.

Messaging Security – Email has become one of the top two vectors of attack commonly used by hackers, malware, spyware and phishing exploits.  Why you ask?  It’s because email and messaging has become a mission critical application for nearly every organization operating today.  Whether it’s developing an acceptable use policy or implementing rules-based controls to encrypt sensitive data traversing the Internet, Jupiter-Gemini can recommend, evaluate and implement the right solution for your business.  We can offer site-based solutions as well as hosted or cloud-based solutions.  There are many options available and we can help you sift through the economics and viability of each choice.

IPSec & SSL VPN – The network perimeter has become blurred as the workforce continues to be more mobile with many companies working in complete virtual environments.  Whether your users or business partners connect to your network from a branch office via a site-to-site virtual private network (VPN) or from an airport over public WIFI, the requirement to create a secure connection is the same.  Many solutions exist to provide a seamless customer experience anytime, anywhere over any type of transport.  Jupiter-Gemini will work with your team to develop the best approach to remote access based on your customer, workforce and security policy.

Encryption – There are two types of data with respect to encryption:  data at rest and data in transit.  Each type of data requires different methods for safeguarding.  Whether your organization is bound by regulatory compliance or your corporate security policy dictates data encryption as a matter of normal data security practice, Jupiter-Gemini can assist you in assessing your needs, identifying risks, recommending solutions and managing the implementation.

Managed Security – Let’s face it, security is not your business’ core competency and all this talk about threats and exploits and regulatory compliance just isn’t your cup of tea.  As the rules continue to change more and more small businesses realize their data is as much at risk as the global enterprise.  The solution is simple – let Jupiter Gemini Consulting provide your organization with a completely managed security solution and let us worry about the threat landscape while you focus on your business landscape.  We can tailor a solution to fit any size organization from small office/home office to global enterprise.  Let our experienced security engineers construct a managed security solution that fits your business.

Firewall Installation – In the constantly changing Internet threat landscape it used to be that you could protect your network with PC-based firewalls.  Long gone are those days and the blended threats used by those who would do you wrong are continuously morphing to traverse evolving security technologies.  Today, all businesses should have a firewall or unified threat management (UTM) appliance in front of their mission-critical business information.  So you say you don’t have a qualified security professional to assist you in configuration and deployment of such a necessary device.  Jupiter-Gemini can help. 

We have remotely installed firewalls on live networks across the U.S. with little or no assistance from onsite personnel.  We can also assist you in selecting the right mix of security services to enhance the protective posture of your network.  In most cases we can have the firewall configured and installed in under an hour but will also provide your IT representative one-on-one training to minimize the learning curve.  Our certified professionals will also answer any questions you have regarding other aspects of network security that your business is contemplating.  Call or email today to find out how we can take the magic out of the mysterious firewall.

PCI-DSS Compliance – The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) was developed to enhance cardholder data security.   The continued influx in credit card fraud has led the leading credit card companies to aggressively enforce compliance with the requirements put forth in the PCI-DSS Requirements and Security Assessment Procedures document.  PCI-DSS applies to all entities involved in payment card processing – including merchants, processors, acquirers, issuers and service providers as well as other entities that store, process and transmit cardholder data.  Essentially, any individual or business that processes credit cards directly or connects to a network where credit card processing takes place must be in compliance with the PCI-DSS requirements.  Failure to comply with the PCI-DSS requirements can result in monetary fines as well as suspension of credit card processing privileges.  Once credit card data has been compromised it’s too late to take action.   Contact Jupiter-Gemini today to discuss how we can assure that your business is taking all appropriate measures outlined in the PCI-DSS standard.

Penetration Testing – In a perfect world your network assets, web servers and vital business information would always be safe.  The simple fact is the truth could not be further from that statement.  Every day your network is bombarded by hackers, malware, spyware, crawlers, probes, key loggers and many more exploits.  Most companies don’t even know their security has breached until it’s too late.  There’s a cyber war going on out there and the only way to insure your assets are safe is to have ethical professionals use the same techniques the “bad people” use to test your security against known intrusion and exploit methods.  Many industries require penetration testing as part of the security audit process in order to meet regulatory and compliance standards.  Jupiter-Gemini provides several options to our customers and can tailor a custom testing scenario to meet your specific needs.  Contact us today to discuss how we can help you protect your business assets and confidential customer information.
