Roaming users are the most vulnerable entry point to any organizations and with remote working becoming an increasingly popular trend among workers, enterprises are feeling the need to implement strict policies to secure their valuable data. However, despite devising strict and detailed policies for the use of personal mobile devices, enterprise cybersecurity teams are often let down by solutions that fail to enforce their security policies across a variety of devices and networks (like public Wi-Fi hotspots). As a result, they are vulnerable to data leaks and cyber-attacks through the devices carried by their roaming users.

That’s why, to prevent data leaks and act as the threat vector, roaming users regardless of the device and network they use, GajShield’s Data Security Firewall with the help of Enterprise Cloud Solution, ensure that all users, roaming or otherwise, are secured when they access enterprise data and applications when they step out of the enterprise network. Even if they use public Wi-Fi networks, the cloud security solution scans every packet of data being transmitted by users with its Deep packet Inspection (DPI) capability combined with Contextual Intelligence Engine to create context of all the traffic for the Data Security Firewall to understand and take necessary action. As a result, if any communication to or from the roaming user contains sensitive data that shouldn’t leave the organization, the Data Security Firewall blocks such communications based on defined data security policies. It also identifies malware and suspicious files that can infect the enterprise applications and blocks them from running and causing harm to the enterprise network, saving from a cyber-attack. 

GajShield’s Enterprise Cloud Solution enforces routing of all traffic through the HO’s Data Security Firewall (Public or Private) and applies all the data security and global security policies to all the browsing and network activity. This allows the organizations to gain complete visibility on all the network traffic of the roaming user for monitoring along with the greatest of security solutions to ensure maximum Security and prevent data leak.

GajShield allows organization to decrypt SSL traffic to detect and block hidden malicious content or outgoing sensitive information. GajShield inspects and protects the organization against known viruses and worms using signature and heuristic technologies. GajShield’s architecture provides inspection at many levels and at regular times with the speed of most competitive products, ensuring full protection without introducing latency. In addition to this, a range of spyware, including malicious Trojans, system monitors, key-loggers, and adware, which are pervasive threats and significant security risks, are effectively detected and stopped by GajShield’s antispyware. Security is ensured to the roaming users even when they are a part of an insecure network like public Wi-Fi, etc.

Besides this, GajShield allows that organization to decrypt SSL traffic to detect and block hidden malicious content or outgoing sensitive information.

As the traditional perimeter is vanishing with enterprises connecting to their customers and partners, data leakage and cyber-attacks are becoming an expensive, burdensome problem. Employees, whether their intent is innocent or malicious, can easily send a Webmail or IM with confidential information. Information can be posted on social networks and blogs instantaneously. Private information, such as consumer’s Social Security and Credit Card numbers are protected by Government regulations and leakage creates legal liabilities and harms brand reputation. Furthermore, leaks of sensitive company information may lead into financial losses.

Enterprise Cloud Functionality:

GajShield Data Security Firewall provides an integrated, best-of-breed, and comprehensive functionality. It allows organizations to create common, granular policies for various areas. It has an intuitive user interface, so that use of the service literally requires no training. There are three key areas of functionality: secure, manage, and comply GajShield inspects all outbound and inbound web traffic to protect enterprises from these threats.

• Enforcing of security policies and control including web filtering, application filtering, DLP along with visibility of roaming users (using cloud client).
• Restricts roaming users to disable security policies.
• Viruses, Malwares & Spyware: The Known Threats.
• GajShield inspects and protects against known viruses and worms using signature and heuristic technologies.
• GajShield’s architecture provides inspection at many times the speed of most competitive products, ensuring full protection without introducing latency. In addition, spyware is a pervasive and significant security risk. GajShield antispyware detects and stops a range of spyware, including malicious Trojans, system monitors, keyloggers, and adware.
• Web traffic is increasingly being encrypted using the SSL protocol. If an organization selects SSL decryption policy, GajShield allows that organization to decrypt SSL traffic to detect and block hidden malicious content or outgoing sensitive information.
• As the traditional perimeter is vanishing, with enterprises connecting to their customers and partners, data leakage is becoming an expensive, burdensome problem. Employees, whether their intent is innocent or malicious, can easily send a Webmail or IM with confidential information. Information can be posted on social networks and blogs instantaneously. Private information, such as consumers’ Social Security and credit card numbers, is protected by government regulations and leakage creates legal liabilities and harms brand reputation. Further, leaks of sensitive company information risk financial loss.
• Several companies have emerged to offer specialized solutions to prevent data leakage. These solutions often require extensive implementation and consulting services. They are also just another point solution to be added to an already-crowded perimeter gateway. Not surprisingly, less than 5% enterprises have deployed data loss prevention (DLP) solutions today.
• GajShield CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker) provides in depth security for well-known SaaS applications like Google G-Suite, Office 365, Yahoo, Rediff Mail, Facebook and others. Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB).
