Managed Security Services

Security is not merely a service at Logicworks; it is a pervasive concern in everything we do. From the operating system images to how we validate and respond to client requests, each aspect of Logicworks’ operations incorporates security consideration. You don’t just have to take our word for it: each year Logicworks’ certified accounting firm audits our controls and procedures for our SAS 70 Type II certification.

Managed Firewalls

Logicworks offers dedicated firewalls based on the Linux IP tables feature set which offer stateful granular control of what traffic is permitted into and out of a client’s netblock. Firewalls are configured in pairs, sharing a VIP on the internal interface and connecting to Logicworks’ network core via OSPF. Firewalls are typically configured with Gig-E interfaces, and can be augmented with bonded Gig-E interfaces for even higher throughput.

Virtual Private Networks

Logicworks offers the full range of Cisco PIX and Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) VPN endpoints to allow secure, dedicated connectivity to clients’ servers at Logicworks from clients’ headquarters or third party data providers. Cisco VPN endpoints allow for both nailed-up network-to-network connectivity as well as software client access. While VPN connectivity is not required for typical administration through SSH or RDP, it facilitates the use of otherwise insecure protocols and services such as FTP.

Intrusion Detection and Prevention

Using Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) hardware and attack signature subscription services, clients can be alerted to intrusion attempts, and vulnerable services can be locked down in real time by the ASA, which Logicworks provisions and maintains on an ongoing basis.
