If the computer network of your company or business is not protected, the ITS Safe security appliance would be a great tool to have.
The ITS SafeTM security appliance detects and blocks unwanted activities inside your network that firewalls and virus scanners can’t stop. (www.it-security-solutions.com)
“Virus scanners and firewalls attempt to block things. In reality, a virus scanner is looking to see if it can identify that you’ve already had a breach. It’s a reactive tool, not a preventive tool,” said Albert Whale, Founder of IT Security Solutions, inc. during an interview with KDKA Radio on Tuesday.
“Our tool looks at the packets coming in, on the network and determines if they are good or bad. If they are bad, we drop them and we block the hackers from getting to your computers.”
Private information can be leaked and identities can be stolen if an individual breaks in to the network of a business; it can be very serious.
“Sysco came out with some other marketing for our webinar, and they said 43% of companies fail within six months after a data breach,” Whale explains.
ITS Safe is different from other platforms because they identify attacks that are in progress.
“We have controls in place that detect this malicious activity, and then we can block it before it hits your computer.”

Today we are discussing the concept of change.

In the news this past week is the largest single identified breach for Consumer Information, thus far (the final number is yet to be determined). With this information is also the threat from Congress to impose Jail time and stiffer fines to promote a more serious natures for organizations to do more than just apologize. When the CEO of a multinational corporation says that he’s sorry and he didn’t do enough to protect your information, is that enough?
