Global Managed Security Solution
Providing Optimal Network Security for Global Corporations
Organizations are facing growing threats to network security today. After experiencing a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack that caused serious service disruption, a major semiconductor manufacturer implemented an intrusion prevention system (IPS) to comply with the company's new global standard security policy. The company wanted secure Internet connections to their global MPLS network IP-VPN and turned to NTT for solutions.
The company knew that NTT's hands-on approach and its ability to satisfy its customers' exact requirements would enable them to complete a successful implementation of its global IP-VPN networks. When faced with a choice between the purchase of an unmanaged security solution package from a third-party vendor and a subscription to NTT's Secure Internet Gateway service on a monthly recurring charge (MRC) basis, the customer chose NTT's managed security service offering because of the company's proven managed service quality and optimal capital expenditure.
