NETMONASTERY: Spearheading Real-time Threat Management

By

The global network security market is experiencing constant growth as a result of the growing virtualization of servers leading to adoption of newer network security solutions. There is also an increasing use of network security solutions by small and medium-sized businesses. However, these solutions are not efficient enough for today’s dynamic and malevolent threat landscape and organizations need to embrace new security practices like Real-time Threat Management to detect and remediate sophisticated, stealthy and damaging security breaches. NETMONASTERY NSPL, headquartered in Mumbai, assists enterprises in securing their network and applications by detecting threats in real time.

NETMONASTERY started off by incident handling assignments which demanded it to find out real sources of threat, while intrusion detection system used to give a lot of false alerts. Owing to its success, the solution subsequently became an infrastructure product. "Today, the company builds such products from scratch and its clients are excited about how it is able to effectively deliver its security solutions by putting the data processing unit in the customer’s network while having the business logic and control at its own network." says Shomiron Das Gupta, Founder and CEO. NETMONASTERY brings together a mix of technologies and expert intrusion analysts to detect the rarest attacks on customers’ networks.

NETMONASTERY helps customers detect real attackers in real time through its spearheading product, CNAM which is a platform that does all it takes to detect attackers and is offered to customers in a Pay-as-you-Grow subscription model. CNAM detects attacks at the gateway, correlates threat data with devices, operating systems and application servers, applies real-time trend information and integrates closely with customer applications to detect attacks. Being a combination of tools, technologies, processes and people; CNAM is delivered to the customer on a monthly retainer and takes the onus of detection accuracy, relieving the customer of all the pain in running a security operation. CNAM also protects privacy of customers by processing all data/events collected from the customer with the enterprise perimeter itself. The dedicated model delivers extreme customization possibilities; a feature that the NETMONASTERY Support-Ops utilizes for unimaginable benefits. CNAM brings with itself the skill set to manage accuracy and effectiveness of the system.

In the times to come, industry will see mobile security market getting commoditized and enterprise security space will witness the next generation of attacks on applications and common frameworks that are being used today. It is now imperative for an organization to invest more than enough resources in visioning (predicting) threat factors of tomorrow and building technologies to combat them today. NETMONASTERY believes in the importance of innovation and is focused on maintaining a rich shelf of research that can be rolled out into production within a short time frame. The company has plans to make an impact through revolutionary achievements like being able to measure security and delivering accountable services.
