The blacklist choice

Blacklist vs. new Appliance

When considering the addition of a new security layer, traditional industry vendors still try to bundle new appliances or software programs within your information system. Appliances and software may ensure the confidentiality of R&D secrets to security vendors, generate additional maintenance fees and support.

On your side, appliances and software require the dedication of IT space, server availability and network configuration burden. In addition, these solutions embed their own management and reporting consoles and require training for administrators.

Integrated blacklists are agile solutions : they release their core value to the right existing environment, push alerts within the management consoles your administrators are used to.
Many free blacklists proliferate on the Internet and are implemented by the research community. While all these initiatives are sources of inspiration for our team, real-production IT environments require a professional approach:

  • a reliable solution with processes and methodologies to ensure exhaustiveness and 0% false blocking
  • a strong corporate organization to ensure service delivery and product evolution for the lifetime of the IT environment
  • a solution driven towards implementation robustness and performance optimization
  • a professional 24/7 support and service level agreements.
