Cloud Security

The EdgeXOS cloud firewall platform provides next generation network security by incorporating both appliance level and endpoint protection while utilizing the cloud to ensure instant and realtime security updates in order to prevent zero hour security threats.

What this means is that the EdgeXOS cloud firewall platform can react faster and ensure better defenses than other non-cloud enabled solutions. XRoads Networks has utilized its partnership with Webroot to provide centralized and global web security via the EdgeXOS appliances and enable endpoint protection through a simple download and installation process managed through the EdgeXOS platform which can ensure that all users are connecting securely to the network.

No other solution on the market surpasses the security capabilities offered via the EdgeXOS cloud firewall platform.

Hardened Network Firewall

The EdgeXOS platforms has a built-in network layer firewall which can be used to create granular security policies to allow, deny, and log network traffic based on various administrative criteria. The packet inspection firewall can quickly determine if specific types of attacks are being made against it and adjust accordingly, including DoS attacks, SYN floods, fragmented packets, redirects, source route attacks, and reverse path filtering.

The firewall is easy to configure and is rules based which allows for simple grouping and modification as needed. Rules can be grouped based on name and applied based on group order. User control is also built-in to the firewall which automatically detects all physical addresses on the LAN network for easy administration and management.

Security Policies

XOS Preview

The EdgeXOS platform is a deep inspection firewall that works in conjunction with our packet classifier technology to secure your network connections. In addition to the rules-based firewall the EdgeXOS can manage individual users through network access control and authentication.

Network access control utilizes an end-users MAC/physical address and IP address in order to identify the end-user and then grant access through a web-based interface, or when the administrator specifically allows that user access to the network. the NAC server can be used in conjunction with the Cloud5ecure client in order to enforce endpoint security for all users on the local area network.

The EdgeXOS cloud firewall platform delivers its #1 rated antispyware technology by leveraging partnerships with leading cloud-security vendors like Webroot, the leader in antispyware detection and prevention. These cloud-security vendors utilize research systems that scour the entire Web and discover spyware faster than any other solution available today. These updates are immedately distributed through our solution to end-users, thus preventing new outbreaks and reducing lost productivity and headaches.

In order to delivery enterprise class antivirus detection the EdgeXOS cloud firewall incorporates technology from Webroot, which is a best-of-breed virus scanner, and includes an integrated Host Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS) to detect potential malware before it creates problems on an end-users system. Behavioral analysis automatically finds potential threats and can quarantine them before they become a security issue.

Patent-pending technology from XRoads Networks allows these third party vendors to operate at top speed and ensure highly redundant connectivity to these critical security services.
