We are in the age of cyber warfare. The latest intrusions provide new evidence that a battle is heating up between the U.S. and potential adversaries over the data networks that tie the world together. Computer systems used to control critical infrastructure have been infiltrated by spies and cybergangs attempting to compromise our safety, security and freedom. Most agencies and their data centers are being fed by a high speed sonet link Look at the OMB TIC initiative. If Rsignia could attribute a spoofed IP address to an unfriendly nation-state, shouldn't that event become a top priority for your security team? In activities reminiscent of the Cold War, intelligence agencies are routinely testing networks looking for weaknesses. Rsignia is the industry leader in providing network security, protection, and digital assets monitoring and management. Through superior engineering, Rsignia provides custom solutions that support new and emerging cyber warfare offensive capabilities.

Cyber threats

Over the course of our cyber warfare reports, we've provided you with an understanding of the growing dangers of cyber threats. Hi, I'm Darrell Covell, CTO & Founder of Rsignia. These Cyber Thugs steal our nation's secretes and your personal information for personal gain.

You can no longer use standard methodologies to secure your enterprise network is in need of an additional cyber security safety net. Technology that compliments what you already have. Our latest technologies work with your already deployed solutions providing additional layers of information assurance that has been mandated.

Rsignia Engineers work closely with the Intel community addressing zero day threats and the latest vulnerabilities. One of Rsignia's products, CyWarfius, stems from efforts in working with the Intel agencies.

Rsignia knows first hand, how to identify, protect and secure both government and commercial enterprise networks. I ask you to take a minute to visit our website, odds are that you'll find something unique and different. Cyber Warfare, it's serious, it's real, its what we do every day. Let us help you. Please visit us at R.S.I.G.N.I.A dot com. That's RSIGNIA.com

Appropriations legislation

With federal dollars just now becoming available and new federal appropriations legislation, federal agencies will be even more time-pressed to spend their budget dollars before the end of the fiscal year. On a bipartisan basis, Congress increased cyber security spending to ensure the rebuilding of aging network infrastructure to better prepare for possible disasters and future cyber threats that now occur on a daily basis.

Investments in intrusion detection

In a recent cyber security survey of government IT executives, intrusion detection and prevention were one of the top priorities mentioned by 42% of the respondents in that survey. Investments in intrusion detection to protect the network and prevent intrusions were indicated to be extremely important. Securing your network in these two areas to protect against cyber attacks will have an indelible impact on improving security.

Intrusion detection systems

Intrusion detection systems are ubiquitous defenses in today's networks. Fast Capture of traffic and analysis is crucial to dealing with intrusions. Research has proven that ever increasing traffic loads on today's networks has opened a security hole in our defenses. While operating under heavy loads, many of the currently deployed IDS's cannot cope with the onslaught. Rather than simply slowing down, some of these systems actually begin skipping packets, allowing long streams of traffic to pass through uninspected.

Indentify the cyber terrorist

The Assistant Deputy Director of Cyber-Issues for the Obama Administration's Director of National Intelligence said, "In the face of our almost universal reliance on untrusted systems, the US currently is facing a grave national security challenge in the form of exploitation of our government and private-sector networks and information," "This exploitation is occurring on an unprecedented scale. The most immediate challenge is to identify the cyber terrorist in vast and anonymous cyberspace

Data networks

The latest intrusions provide new evidence that a battle is heating up between the U.S. and potential adversaries over the data networks that tie the world together. The revelations follow a recent Wall Street Journal report that computers used to control the U.S. electrical-distribution system, as well as other infrastructure, have also been infiltrated by spies abroad. Attacks like these have escalated. Military, civilian, and private companies are affected.

Real Intrusion Detection Systems

Rsignia's Opportunity for real intrusion detection systems

Do you know with certainty you are achieving 100% packet capture at speeds of 10GigE or higher?

Deploying Intrusion detection systems is an essential step in defending today's mission critical communication networks that are ubiquitous defenses in today's networks.

However, our research has proven many IDS solutions are inadvertently allowing threats into the network as they struggle to keep up with the ever-increasing traffic load being carried on today's networks. This has opened a security hold in our defenses.

When operating under heavy loads, many of the currently deployed Intrusion Detection Systems cannot cope with the onslaught. Rather than simply slowing down, some of these systems actually begin skipping packets, allowing long streams of traffic to pass through uninspected. That is about as safe as an airport security gate that simply lets people walk by whenever the line gets too long. You know it will not take long before the bad guys figure out the best time to get through undetected…just wait for the longest line and pile in!

With today's communication networks moving up to rates of 10 Gigabits per second and beyond, it is time to ensure that the Intrusion Detection Systems protecting our critical networks are capable of inspecting and capturing all the traffic, even under full loads.

Of course, Intrusion Detection is not enough. Accurate alerting is critical to the success of IDS. Attack analysis and mitigation requires you to be able to see the whole picture, not just a slice. So in order to make an accurate threat analysis you must also have captured all the traffic both before and after the intrusion alert. IDS combined with full packet capture and analysis allows you to make better decisions for tuning your IDS for your environment. This helps you minimize false positives and helps you optimize your network at the same time.

You need to examine every data packet, every time with zero packet loss at high network speeds on any interface. Our IDS and network security systems for data forensics, lawful intercept, network analytic s, and packet capture can save you both time and money.

We invite you to our lab for a hands-on, real world approach with replay traffic. You will be assured we examine every packet, every time with zero packet loss at higher line rates than anyone else has to offer. Rsignia can help your security team achieve a real network intrusion detection system. Because you never know when the traffic you've missed is the traffic you really must see.
