“Until today, security solutions have been totally passive in nature,” said Michael W. Erwin, president of Symbiot, Inc. “Merely erecting defensive walls around the perimeter of an enterprise network is not an adequate deterrent.” Symbiot’s iSIMS software provides graduated response levels based on the severity of the attacks, and the manager’s authority to respond. When it is necessary to act, Symbiot’s iSIMS does not limit the means available for network self-defense. Rather, the response is limited by the intensity, duration and realized effect of each attack. Symbiot’s iSIMS solution integrates seamlessly with existing enterprise architectures. In addition to monitoring and managing the security infrastructure that protects valuable digital assets, Symbiot’s iSIMS enables customers to take appropriate action to respond when attacked. “Symbiot has introduced the first and only tool that intelligently and accurately responds to hostile attacks against enterprise networks,” said Richard Forno, former chief security officer for Network Solutions, and a noted information warfare specialist. “While other companies offer only passive defense barriers, Symbiot provides the equivalent of an active missile defense system.”
