Regardless of whether it's a large corporation or a young start-up: every company must make an effort to ensure the security of its data and applications. Hackers are always finding new loopholes and exploiting them. So IT security must always be at least one step ahead of such attacks. But that is often not so easy.
In today's digital era, large enterprises are increasingly faced with a variety of cybersecurity challenges. Increasing expectations for digital products require not only rapid development, but also the highest standards of security and usability.
Difficulties of large companies
Large corporations and leading companies in particular have to contend with challenges in their security structure. Everything has to be up-to-date, user-friendly, secure of course, and reliable. Choosing the right partners is crucial when it comes to sensitive data and digital security.
Particularly high security requirements apply to large organizations. But as security requirements become more stringent, usability can decline. How do leading companies deal with these requirements?
Find out below how we work with Raiffeisen Switzerland and other well-known customers to ensure the security and user-friendliness of their IT.
Complexity of the IT infrastructure
Large enterprises often have a complex IT infrastructure with multiple systems, applications and platforms. Integrating and managing security solutions can be a challenge. This is where we come in! With a scalable and holistic security platform, Airlock offers the ability to ensure security across the entire IT landscape. This enables your company to maintain an overview even in complex structures.
Protection against Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs)
Large enterprises are often the target of targeted and advanced attacks. They need advanced security solutions capable of detecting and blocking such threats. Airlock provides reliable protection against APTs with its Web Application Firewall (WAF) and a powerful Intrusion Prevention System (IPS). The continuous updating of threat information also enables new attack vectors to be detected and defended against in good time.
Regulatory requirements
Large enterprises often need to meet stringent compliance and data protection requirements. They need solutions that can meet these requirements and demonstrate compliance. Airlock offers comprehensive reporting and auditing capabilities that enable companies to demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements. This allows them to focus on their core business without losing sight of compliance.
Scalability
Security solutions must be able to keep pace with the growth of the business. They should be scalable to handle increasing traffic and user demands. Airlock is designed for scalability and can be easily integrated with existing systems. This way, the security infrastructure grows with the needs of the business.
Identity and Access Management (IAM)
Managing identities and access to sensitive data and systems is critical for large enterprises. An effective IAM solution is essential. Airlock offers a comprehensive IAM system that enables companies to precisely define and manage the access rights of their employees. This ensures that only authorized individuals can access specific data and applications.
Security in the cloud
Large companies often use cloud services and need to ensure that their data and applications are also protected in the cloud. Airlock offers specific solutions for securing cloud applications. By integrating cloud security hubs, companies can enforce their security policies in the cloud as well, ensuring a consistent level of security.
Protection against DDoS attacks
Large enterprises are often the target of DDoS attacks that can affect the availability of systems. They need solutions that can defend against such attacks. Airlock has special mechanisms for detecting and defending against DDoS attacks. This ensures that systems remain stable and available even under heavy load.
Mobility and remote work
With the rise of mobile devices and remote working, large enterprises need to ensure that their employees can securely access corporate resources, regardless of their location. Airlock offers a variety of solutions for secure mobile access. With multi-factor authentication and secure VPN connections, employees can work with protection and flexibility.
Security for web applications and APIs
Large enterprises often run complex web applications and APIs that need to be protected from attacks. Airlock provides a specialized web application firewall (WAF) that detects and blocks application-level attacks. In addition, the integrated Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) provides an extra layer of security.
The challenge of integration
One of the biggest challenges for large enterprises is the integration of security solutions into an existing IT infrastructure. Often, different systems and platforms are in use that must harmonize with each other. Airlock is characterized by a high level of integration capability. It can be seamlessly integrated into existing environments while providing a central interface for managing security policies.
A Look into practice
An impressive example of the successful implementation of Airlock can be found at Raiffeisen Switzerland. As one of the largest cooperative banks in Switzerland, Raiffeisen was faced with the challenge of creating a central security infrastructure that was both user-friendly and scalable. The requirements for the e-banking system were high, because customer proximity, sympathy and trustworthiness are the cornerstones of Raiffeisen's success.
With Airlock Secure Access Hub, the company succeeded in implementing a solution that not only meets the highest security standards, but also offers a user-friendly single sign-on solution. The central authentication platform made it possible to offer customers easy access to all services without having to constantly log in again.
Airlock's security standards can also do justice to a large Swiss mobility company. Here, a portal that measures a full 6 million users could be protected.
Large enterprises face multiple cybersecurity challenges. The complexity of the IT infrastructure, the need for comprehensive identity and access management, security in the cloud and protection against advanced threats are just some of the aspects that need to be considered.
Airlock offers a comprehensive security solution specifically designed to meet the needs of large enterprises. By integrating advanced technologies such as web application firewall, intrusion prevention system and multi-factor authentication, Airlock enables a holistic security strategy.
With successful implementations at leading companies such as Raiffeisen Switzerland, Airlock has proven its capabilities. The combination of highest security and ease of use makes Airlock the first choice for large enterprises looking for security without compromise.
