CapRock Communications, a premier global provider of managed
communications services for remote and harsh environments, today
launched SafePass™ Pro, an advanced cyber security solution for
proactive defense against cyberattacks targeting oil
and gas IT infrastructures. The solution also is available for
cruise, maritime and other commercial customers.
Industry experts estimate cyberattacks against the global energy
industry will cost businesses up to $1.9 billion by 2018. SafePass Pro
improves network resources, minimizes malware and spyware, enables
centralized control across all sites, enforces acceptable use and
security policies (AUP), and provides an opportunity to assess and
eliminate network vulnerabilities. SafePass Pro customers also will
receive Harris CapRock’s 24/7 monitoring and support, network threat
detection and vulnerability scanning.
The new cyber security solution includes Alert Logic threat monitoring
services. Alert Logic Threat Manager provides network intrusion
monitoring and detection, as well as a vulnerability scanner, while the
firewall protection supports URL filtering, application filtering and
security.
Customers also will have access to Harris Corporation’s industry-leading
cyber security experts to pinpoint system vulnerabilities, monitor
insider threats, proactively defend the network and respond to
incidents. Harris experts protect networks that move 2 million air
passengers a day and manage 150 Department of Defense satellites as well
as numerous government installations.
“Security breaches and emerging threats to corporate networks are
impacting the oil and gas market with greater cost and frequency as
offshore operations rely more heavily on always-on communications
networks,” said Tracey Haslam, president, Harris CapRock. “SafePass Pro
offers an unparalleled approach to cyber protection with the added
ability of working with Harris cyber security experts committed to
securing critical government networks.”
