World-Class Technology


As a leading Managed Security Service (MSS) provider, VeriSign invests significant MSS revenues in research and development. We use proprietary systems combined with best-of-breed, open source and third-party tools to deliver reliable, efficient managed security services.

VeriSign TeraGuard Information Management 
Architecture

MSS Client Resource Portal

Every VeriSign® Managed Security Services client has easy, secure access to the VeriSign® Enterprise Security Portal for a dashboard view of critical information as well as detailed reports and query tools. The security management dashboard presents timely, accurate and relevant security information tied to business value. An ad hoc query engine enables sophisticated analysis of security events for each security device under management, across platforms and locations. Access is secured with token-based authentication and SSL encryption.

Security Defense Appliance

The VeriSign® Security Defense Appliance (SDA) eliminates the footprint that most MSS providers require when managing multiple devices at a client's site by opening a single IPSec tunnel for all data traveling to and from VeriSign Secure Operations Centers (SOCs). Installed on the customer’s premises, the SDA captures security event logs and translates the information into an independent data model that becomes the basis for the first level of event correlation. The IPSec tunnel enables VeriSign engineers to manage change and configure client devices across platforms without access to customer’s actual data. A redundant, out-of-band dial-up modem ensures consistent security protection, even if an SDA loses its VPN connectivity.

VeriSign TeraGuard

VeriSign® TeraGuard™, our proprietary information management architecture, abstracts device data with one correlation engine to support multiple firewalls, IDS/IPS and host platforms. From a single stream of security-related events correlated from a number of sources, VeriSign TeraGuard analyzes and prioritizes alerts based on industry benchmarks, client requirements, and our own global security intelligence. Consistent, timely reports are delivered to our SOC analysts and clients via the VeriSign Enterprise Security Portal. This device-independent data collection format allows a consistent level of service regardless of which security technologies are deployed, and easily scales to accommodate new security or network technologies.

Secure, Reliable Infrastructure

As the authoritative registry for all .com and .net domain names, VeriSign is the leading provider of critical infrastructure services for the Internet. VeriSign’s Advanced Transaction Look-Up and Signaling (ATLAS™) global infrastructure is a sophisticated software platform designed to scale the Internet’s core infrastructure, the Domain Name System (DNS), and support the convergence of voice and data networks. The ATLAS platform is deployed across global data centers to provide fast, reliable response worldwide based on service and performance needs. The redundant and secure design ensures availability and system continuity as Internet traffic continues to grow worldwide.
