InfoExpress CyberGatekeeper

The CyberGatekeeper solution enables the U.S. Federal Government to provide guest access and ensure endpoint devices are verified to be compliant and healthy when connecting to the network. Only those endpoint devices that are compliant with enterprise security policies are allowed access to the production network. Those endpoint devices that fail the host integrity check are redirected and placed into quarantine.

The CyberGatekeeper solution attempts to bring the endpoint inline with policy requirements. Once compliant with security policies, the endpoint is allowed network access. As long as the endpoint is connected to the network infrastructure, the CyberGatekeeper solution provides continuous surveillance. If a violation of the security policies is detected, the endpoint is immediately placed into quarantine.

InfoExpress CyberGatekeeper is easy and fast to deploy without major network overhaul and without sacrificing effectiveness.

The CyberGatekeeper solution requires zero network changes or upgrades, as heterogeneous network support ensures interoperability in multi-vendor network environments. In addition, the CyberGatekeeper host integrity check (HIC) can also be integrated with the VitalQIP Management System using an easy to install plug-in.

Benefits include:

• Ensures 100 percent of network end points are compliant (patch levels, configurations, and application settings), or they are quarantined until remediated
  • Separates authentication mechanism from security
  • 802.1x not a requirement for HIC
• End points can be plugged into phones and still be secured
• Will not interfere with existing VoIP deployments
• Keeps rogue devices off the network
• Reduces vulnerabilities as security solutions, OS and patches are assured to be running and up-to-date
• Lowers help desk costs through the automatic remediation of non-compliant PCs
• Improves security compliance/auditing scorecard
• Reduces risks associated with improperly configured computers
• Integrates with existing patch management solutions to preserve software investments
• Reduces support costs by maintaining standard configurations across desktops
