Setting up Sybergen Management Server is a snap.  Using Automatic Client Recognition, the server will locate all machines running Sybergen Secure Desktop on your network, and implement your pre-defined security policies on those machines.  Pre-configured Sybergen Secure Desktop clients can easily be deployed via standard software distribution tools.  Security policy can be set globally, by user group, or by individual client machine.  Also, Sybergen Management Server can be configured to allow all or part of a given security profile to be client-controlled—giving you the ultimate in control flexibility.

In the event that there is a security breech on a client running Sybergen Secure Desktop, the server will gather all intrusion information and take appropriate action as defined by the network administrator.  For example, Sybergen Management Server can configure Sybergen Secure Desktop™ clients to send out an e-mail notification when port scanning or hacking is detected.  Detailed security logs will be stored in a database for further review.

Features

Easy Server Set-up and Administration:

Getting up and running is a breeze with Sybergen Management Server’s Intuitive Web-based interface.  You can create multiple IT administration accounts with different privileges (administrative, provisioning or monitoring rights), and multi-console support will allow many IT Personnel to administer the server concurrently. 

Centralized Network Policy Provisioning:

Now, you can ensure a consistent security policy across your network.  Sybergen Management Server automatically detects and sets policies on Sybergen Secure Desktop clients in your network.  Security policies can be set globally, at a group level, or individually.  These flexible policies allow administrators to set the level of client control (e.g., privileged users can control their own security level, trusted applications, etc.).  New Sybergen Secure Desktop Clients can easily be added and configured through the web interface.

Centralized Monitoring:

Sybergen Management Server lets you rest easy knowing that your entire organization is safe by giving you a bird’s eye view of network security, regardless of where your clients reside.  Monitoring for intrusion attempts on telecommuters and remote workers is easy with Sybergen Management Server’s advanced grouping features—you can view all clients based on hostname, IP address, MAC, security policy group, and version of Sybergen Secure Desktop.

Consolidated Logging:

Sybergen Management Server retains all access, security policy, and intrusion logs for Sybergen Secure Desktop clients on the network.  This information is stored in a database, allowing for easy back up of critical security data.

Customized Reporting and Analysis:

Management Server puts concise security reports at your fingertips.  You can create security threat reports based on type, origin, direction, and local port for a single client, a group of clients, or the entire network. Administrators can view a graphical representation of the data with Sybergen Management Server’s built-in charting feature.  From this data, an IT staff can efficiently identify and fix weaknesses in their corporate security framework.
