Dell SecureWorks Launches Server Protection Services 

Dell SecureWorks now provides Server Protection Services for physical, virtual and cloud-based servers so organizations can secure their servers with an all-in-one service.

Dell SecureWorks’ solution utilizes key components of Trend Micro’s Deep Security offering, including its firewall, Intrusion Detection and Intrusion Protection System (IDS/IPS) and anti-malware protection. Dell SecureWorks’ Global Information Assurance Certification (GIAC)-certified analysts will monitor, analyze and help remediate any security events uncovered by the Deep Security software.

The Monitored Server Protection Service, which includes 24x7 security-event monitoring, health and uptime monitoring and a unified customer portal, is currently available for physical and virtual servers in cloud-hosted and on-premise environments. The Managed Server Protection Solution includes all of the latter services, plus policy creation/management, health management and a hosted management console. It is planned to launch in Q1 2014.

“Cyber-attacks are becoming more sophisticated every day so it’s imperative for organizations to adopt a multi-layer protection strategy for their high-value servers,” said Dan DeRosa, director of product management at Dell SecureWorks. “Our Incident Response experts and Counter Threat Unit (CTU) researchers continually investigate breaches where hackers use a small entry point to infiltrate a company’s network and access critical servers. The Server Protection Services, powered by threat context from our incident response and research team, provides a strong security posture.”
