CSPi Recognized as a Top 10 Fortinet Solution Provider by Leading Security Publication

Enterprise Security Technology Cites Unique Approach to Data Breach Identification and Response as a Critical Component


BOSTON, May 09, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CSPi (NASDAQ:CSPI) a provider of IT hardware, professional and managed services, security services and packet capture solutions, today announced that it has been named a Top 10 Fortinet Solution provider by Enterprise Security Technology (EST) publication.  EST assembled a panel of leading cybersecurity and C-Suite executives to form a top ten list of the most innovating solution providers of Fortinet’s high-performance network security offerings.  CSPi was selected for its unique approach to identifying and verifying data breaches with its Myricom® nVoy Series.

CSPi’s Myricom nVoy Series leverages the Fortinet Security Fabric API to ingest intrusion alerts from FortiGates and automatically compare them against identified critical assets.  On identifying a breach, the nVoy solution triggers the extraction of a detailed file containing all recorded conversations between the intruder and affected devices, and will immediately dispatch them to the appropriate resources.  Having this data in near real-time enables InfoSec teams to begin a highly focused and effective breach investigation that can be completed in hours, and not the weeks or months experienced today.

“CSPi actively records all data going to and from databases and file shares storing PII data. If those systems have been breached, organizations can search the conversations and locate the exact exposed records,” said Gary Southwell, General Manager, CSPi. “We actively utilize the Fortinet API, allowing our system to access FortiManager to pull relevant alerts into our solution to trigger automated searches of bad actors communicating with the protected assets – to automatically produce the detailed evidence of the breach.”

In addition to the automated identification and notification of breaches, the nVoy solution provides another sizable advantage to InfoSec resources – maintaining compliance with data privacy regulations.  As more data privacy regulations are created, often with stringent breach notification deadlines – such as 72 hours dictated in GDPR or 23NYCRR 500 – it is critical for InfoSec teams to receive insight into the exact data record accessed, if any.  The Myricom nVoy solution enables that through detailed reporting.

CSPi’s complementary solution, ARIA™ Software Defined Security (SDS) gives organizations the capability to automatically Secure DevOps environments. ARIA provides application developers with easy connectors to apply advanced security features, such as encryption, during their development process.  In addition, ARIA supports the InfoSec team by automatically applying security policies to activate any applied security features.  Having the detailed reporting as delivered by the nVoy solution to prove that any accessed data was encrypted can avoid the need for  compliance reporting.  The coupling of FortiGate, nVoy and ARIA provides a complete, proactive security solution that enables organizations to be fully prepared when the inevitable breach occurs.
