MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - June 10, 2008) - Faced with more aggressive network
attacks and today's economy, IT departments are tasked to protect their
networks in this challenging environment with fewer resources. There is
help for IT departments from service providers around the world. By relying
on their service providers to manage network security, enterprises can save
time and money previously spent on researching, installing and maintaining
the different applications needed to provide network protection. In light
of this need among enterprises, service providers are offering managed
security as a value-added offering. NarusInsight Secure Suite provides
service providers with the tools to enhance their managed security
services.
Managed security services are a multi-billion-dollar business. Market
research firm Frost & Sullivan projects that this market will exceed $6
billion by 2011. The Yankee Group estimates that enterprises will outsource
90% of their security solutions by 2010. This view is further confirmed by
the Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA)'s poll. CompTIA
found that security was the top investment that organizations made in 2007,
specifically as it relates to managed services. Naturally, as much of their
focus is spent on protecting and managing traffic traveling over their
networks already, service providers are well-versed in identifying
potential attacks in the form of anomalous behavior, and also provide a
low-investment path to comply with industry standards and government
regulations.
NarusInsight Secure Suite (NSS) enables service providers to offer enhanced
managed security services. NSS is designed for large enterprises, service
providers and government organizations to protect and manage their IP
networks. NSS provides real-time identification and mitigation of any
unwanted, unwarranted or malicious traffic. Narus recently introduced new

traffic, application usage and security threats

inbound and outbound traffic usage statistics, and a list of users
consuming the most bandwidth
