New Product To Provide Network Protection From Rogue XML Traffic And 3rd Party Web Services
At a time where Cloud Computing, Saas, SOA and Web 2.0 are transforming into mainstream business applications, corporate network security reaches its limits as traditional content security devices cannot inspect XML/SOAP traffic. According to a recent Intel® Corp. study, XML already constitutes about 44% of corporate network traffic that bypasses security devices and policies.
XSG Security Gateway is built on Microdasys' patent pending XmlRAY engine and provides immediate enterprise wide protection from malicious and unwanted code in XML encoded data streams, including RSS feeds and RSS enclosures. XSG identifies and analyzes network requests to external Web Services (SOAP/XML) and allows the removal of individual Web Services methods, without breaking the overall functionality of the service. File attachments and feed enclosures are handed off to the content scanners for Virus scanning and Data Loss Prevention analysis.
“Enterprises can roll out Web 2.0 technologies and use 3rd party web services without sacrificing security” said Matthias Baumhof, CTO of Microdasys, “Without protection from XML threats, administrators have no control over Web Services entering the corporate network. Gateway content security devices cannot inspect Web Services’ requests, files and data. XSG is designed to solve this problem”
XSG enables policy based inspection, decoding and filtering of XML traffic and allows the central management of external Web Services, Web Feeds and any XML traffic at the gateway level. It can be easily integrated into any size of network infrastructures. The software is continuously tested with leading content security devices to ensure seamless integration and interoperability.
About Microdasys: Founded in 2002, Microdasys is the pioneer of SSL content inspection and the developer of the patent pending XSG XML Security Gateway. Based in Las Vegas, USA, Microdasys sells and supports its products through a worldwide network of security focused resellers and distributors.
