UserGate SUMMA includes all the necessary tools for the comprehensive protection of modern IT infrastructure that form an ecosystem. It includes virtual platforms and software and hardware systems based on the proprietary UGOS operating system, as well as complementary company products that provide flexible and holistic IT network security management.
Modern networks have changed a lot in recent years. Applications and services go to the clouds, users move from offices to work remotely. The network perimeter in the classical sense is no longer there.
A new approach to security is called Cybersecurity Mesh Architecture (CSMA). This concept speaks to the importance of interconnections between cybersecurity products, information exchange and coordinated work on incident detection and mitigation.
To address these problems, UserGate has developed UserGate SUMMA security product ecosystem.
The core of UserGate SUMMA security is our own UGOS operating system, which allows you to process and analyze network traffic on highly loaded communication channels and achieve efficient scaling. This approach allows us to ensure the high quality of UserGate solutions, their further development and adaptation for different conditions and levels of complexity.
Key Aspects of UserGate SUMMA Operation
Visibility. The main problem in incidents investigation is the lack of information. It is formed due to the poor coverage of sources and the impossibility to interpret them. UserGate SUMMA technologies allow you to identify absolutely all network users, all applications and decrypt up to 98% of all unknown encrypted traffic. Thus, UserGate SUMMA provides almost 100% network visibility.
Wide application area. UserGate SUMMA products control network traffic at all frontiers of network interaction. User workstations, local network, Internet, cloud services and applications, regional branches and remote employees – everywhere you can install UserGate SUMMA ecosystem products for comprehensive data collection and infrastructure protection.
Aggregation. Unified dashboards, summary reports, centralized management console – all this allows UserGate SUMMA elements to function cohesively and smoothly. The expertise of UserGate Monitoring and Response Center (UserGate MRC) will complement the technology stack of the UserGate SUMMA ecosystem and together provide the highest level of security.
Response. With UserGate SUMMA, the security professional has a complete set of tools for monitoring the network, identifying incidents, and investigating and responding to events. The combination of solutions and technologies of the UserGate SUMMA ecosystem, as well as the UserGate MRC expertise, provide a synergistic effect and allow you to solve key business tasks – to reduce the speed of response to undesirable events, reduce the consequences of cyber incidents and minimize the downtime of business processes.
Automation. Products of the UserGate SUMMA security ecosystem are integrated with each other, and a set of automation mechanisms allows you to set up an instant response to security events and increase the speed of response to an incident.
Solving Security and Business Problems
The comprehensive UGOS operating system manages the entire UserGate SUMMA ecosystem. This allows you to use UserGate products in various combinations and usage models. Additional forms of delivery, such as virtual machines, hardware appliances and a Security as a Service model provide unlimited possibilities for implementing solutions both in the existing infrastructure of the organization and in the one being designed.
