Berbee Information Networks Case Study: Remote Managed Security Services

Tags:
firewalls

Overview CDW Berbee's client is an Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) financial data processor for banks. CDW Berbee's client had a highly dynamic and interconnected network, which consisted of other financial institutions, ATMs, and financial networks. Initially, this client was contracted with a service provider for an Internet firewall and limited, Internet-only intrusion detection. When its service provider decided to discontinue the offering the client was using, it contacted CDW Berbee for help. CDW Berbee implemented a dedicated Cisco ASA with integrated intrusion detection/prevention. The client now has very granular security capabilities, and can examine all network traffic for suspicious activity.
