POLYCENTER Security Intrusion Detector V1.2 for DEC OSF/1 HIGHLIGHTS o Extends intrusion detection to the DEC OSF/1 platform o Monitors and detects hostile activities o Responds to potential security violations with realtime countermeasures PRODUCT DESCRIPTION To address today's complex security challenges, Digital offers the POLYCENTER Security Management software and services portfolio, which includes: o POLYCENTER Security Compliance Manager: allows system managers to implement a baseline level of security in their networked computing environments. o POLYCENTER Security Reporting Facility: provides networkwide security reporting. o POLYCENTER Security Intrusion Detector: a realtime security monitoring application for detecting intrusions, such as copying a sensitive file over the network to password guessing. This application stops the intrusion immediately. This new release, POLYCENTER Security Intrusion Detector V1.2 for the DEC OSF/1 platform, protects users' most valuable resource -- information -- by providing realtime cost effective system monitoring. It filters a large volume of audit data, reducing it to a manageable set of relevant information for the system manager to review. The software also detects a range of security events, including break-in attempts, unauthorized privileged programs, and network file transfers. It monitors for hostile activities involving a specific remote host, local user, or file and counters intrusions by sending security alerts to the system manager and by forcing users off the system. BENEFITS o Provides realtime cost effective system monitoring. o Filters a large volume of audit data, reducing it to a manageable set of relevant information for the system manager to review. o Starts and operates from Digital's POLYCENTER environment for centralized system and network management. o Produces daily or weekly summaries of security relevant activity.
