ShieldSec: Edge

Comprehensive Network Protection

Protect Your Network’s Edge with ShieldSec™: Edge

Next-Gen Network Security Built for Resilient Perimeters

The network edge is where your infrastructure meets the outside world — and it’s often the first line of defense. Without robust perimeter controls, attackers can gain a foothold before you even know it.

ShieldSec™: Edge delivers firewall management, segmentation, VPN, intrusion prevention, and network visibility — all integrated with SHIELDSEC™ and NIST CSF practices.

Protect your infrastructure’s front line with intelligent, policy-driven network controls.

SHIELDSEC Pillar Alignment

Pillar Role
S – Secure Perimeter Firewalls, VPNs, segmentation, traffic control
H – Harden Internal Systems Network device config, router/switch hardening
I – Identify Threats Network scanning, open ports, rogue devices
D – Detect, Defend, Disrupt Intrusion detection/prevention, alerting
SEC – Strategic Execution & Control Network policy governance, KPIs, audit-ready logs

What’s Included in ShieldSec: Edge

🛡️ 1. Identify

Map and understand your network before securing it.

  • Network Inventory: Discover all devices, routers, switches

  • Port/Service Scanning: Identify open services and exposure

  • Topology Mapping: Visualize traffic paths, edge entry points


🔐 2. Protect

Implement hardened controls and segmentations at the edge.

  • Firewall Management: Rule reviews, logging, and policy tuning

  • VPN Gateway Configuration: Encrypted access for remote teams

  • Network Segmentation: Isolate sensitive systems (e.g., POS, HR)

  • Router & Switch Hardening: Disable unused ports, default creds, etc.


🔎 3. Detect

Spot malicious traffic and behavior in real time.

  • Intrusion Detection System (IDS): Detect anomalous network patterns

  • Flow Monitoring: Analyze usage and detect C2 communication

  • Threat Intel Integration: Block known bad IPs/domains


🚨 4. Respond

Stop intrusions and limit lateral movement fast.

  • Auto-Threat Response: Block suspicious IPs or protocols

  • Segmentation Rules Update: Instant policy deployment to block traffic

  • Alerting & SIEM Integration: Real-time alerts to SOC or SIEM tools


🔁 5. Recover

Ensure network uptime and restore configurations quickly.

  • Config Backups: Backup switch/router/firewall settings

  • Failover & Redundancy Planning: Ensure continuity during outages

  • Post-Incident Network Audit: Validate controls and document impact
