SECURE AND COMPLIANT PLATFROM

Data Valley Group offers in an exclusive cooperation with a strategic partner a secure and compliant DataCube data center platform. The DataCube is a unique compliant data center with a patented cyber security and resilient solution. This allows companies, institutions and Governments to ensure that they can meet up to the current and future European guidelines and legislations. Users of the Data Valley Group Data Center are in this way protected from the risks surrounding the security of their business data and critical IT infrastructure.

TRIPLE A FRAMEWORK

Triple A transparent Framework is developed for organizations to Identify, Monitor and Protect connections to their company critical assets. Remote users or third parties will setup the physical network connection by establishing a secure connection. Based on their role they are able to communicate via a client-server solution to the appropriate network asset(s). The main issue is that although a solid authentication and authorization procedure may be present and therefor trust the remote user, the solution presented by us is based on: “Never trust a remote device”

CRITICAL ASSETS

Triple A Framework delivers a new way to connect, identify, monitor and protect your business critical assets. Traditional architectures rely on firewalls, VPN’s and endpoint protection to create secure connections. Practice shows that this leaves GAPS regarding privileged account management, change management and vulnerability management controls ( use of generic accounts/ accountability, difficulty in monitoring and securing tunneled connections (garbage in – garbage out), patch management issues, security issues in legacy software, etc.)

PATENTED SECURE ARCHITECTURE

Our patented secure architecture centralizes management of access/availability and security controls in a dedicated domain (PCAD). Implementing this next generation DMZ delivers capability to mitigate vulnerabilities in soft- and hardware assets, prevent leaking of privileged account information, automate monitoring of sessions, create easy to understand audit trials and assure accountability to the required level. Based on your mission, vision and regulatory requirements, we map your current Architecture into Triple A Framework, perform a GAP analysis and design the required Triple A Architecture. Automated inventory and monitoring capabilities assist in providing information to tailor and optimize your processes.
