Protect Your Business with Rudder Security
In today’s fast-paced IT environment, business operations rely on the reliability and efficiency of systems. Ensuring the safety of servers and networks is crucial for uninterrupted service. Rudder, the advanced Network and Service Controller from Quantum Networks, provides a robust security framework that protects against both external and internal threats, guaranteeing seamless and secure operations for your business.
The Need for Advanced Security Solutions
Information security faces constant threats, such as software attacks, information theft and malware. While not all threats cause data loss or physical damage, service disruptions can significantly impact business continuity.
Rudder addresses these challenges by:
- Neutralizing external threats like DDoS attacks.
- Ensuring system availability through robust mechanisms.
- Keeping threats outside the boundaries of servers and networks.
Key Security Features of Rudder
Encryption and Data Security
End-to-End Encryption
Rudder ensures secure communication between devices by encrypting data during its entire transmission process. This prevents unauthorized access or tampering, maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of the data.
Encryption at Rest & in Transit
Rudder adopts industry-standard encryption techniques such as 256-bit AES for securing stored data and TLS 1.2+ with 4096-bit SSL certificates for protecting data during transmission. These measures ensure data safety at all stages.
Network and Application Security
DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions)
DNSSEC enhances DNS security by adding cryptographic signatures to DNS records. This feature protects against DNS spoofing and ensures users are not redirected to malicious websites during domain name lookups.
Web Application and API Protection (WAAP)
Rudder provides robust application security by mitigating risks from vulnerability exploits, bots, denial-of-service attacks, API abuse and other automated threats. It safeguards against data exfiltration, account takeovers and application downtime.
Threat Detection and Prevention
Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS)
At the network perimeter, Rudder deploys IDS/IPS to detect and block potential threats. These systems monitor for malicious activities and ensure that applications and underlying systems remain secure and intact.
Access Control and Authentication
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Rudder enhances account security by requiring users to verify their identity through multiple factors. Supported options include authenticator apps (e.g., Google Authenticator), one-time passwords (OTPs) via email and other secure verification methods.
IP Access Management
This feature allows organizations to restrict access to Rudder accounts based on predefined IP addresses. Only authorized IPs can access the system, effectively blocking malicious access attempts from unauthorized locations.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
Rudder enables administrators to assign roles with specific permissions to users. Available roles include Organization Admin, Site Admin, Viewer Only, Guest Admin and Custom Roles, ensuring users can only access the areas relevant to their responsibilities.
Proactive Monitoring
Log Analysis
Real-time tracking and interpretation of system logs enhance network visibility and management.
Resource Optimization
Ensures efficient use of network resources for better performance.
Vulnerability Management
Identifies and mitigates security risks through continuous assessment.
Cloud Security
Hardened Machine Images
Rudder uses pre-hardened virtual machine images based on industry standards to enhance cloud security. These images limit vulnerabilities, reducing the risk of exploitation by cyber attackers.
Encryption and Security
End-to-End Encryption
Encrypts data during transmission, preventing unauthorized access and ensuring confidentiality and integrity.
Encryption at Rest & in Transit
Uses 256-bit AES for stored data and TLS 1.2+ with 4096-bit SSL for transit, ensuring data security.
Cloud Security
Secures the cloud with pre-hardened virtual machine images, minimizing vulnerabilities and reducing cyberattack risks.
Network and Application Security
DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions)
DNSSEC secures DNS by adding cryptographic signatures, preventing spoofing and ensuring users reach legitimate websites, reducing phishing risks.
Web Application and API Protection (WAAP)
Reduces security risks like exploits, bot attacks, DoS threats and API abuse, preventing data leaks, account takeovers and downtime for secure digital interactions.
Threat Detection and Prevention
Deploys IDS/IPS at the network perimeter to detect and block threats, ensuring application security and preventing unauthorized access.
Access Control and Authentication
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Enhances security with multi-factor authentication using apps (e.g. Google Authenticator), OTPs and other secure methods to prevent unauthorized access.
IP Access Management
Organizations can restrict access to Rudder accounts based on predefined IP addresses by preventing unauthorized login attempts from unrecognized locations.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
Enables administrators to assign roles with specific permissions, such as Admin, Viewer or Guest, ensuring users access only relevant areas.
Proactive Monitoring
Log Analysis
Enables real-time log tracking to enhance network visibility, detecting threats and inefficiencies before they escalate.
Resource Optimization
Optimizes network resources to enhance performance, prevent bottlenecks and ensure smooth system operation.
Vulnerability Management
Continuous security assessments detect risks early, applying patches and updates to maintain a strong security posture.
