In a world where data protection is crucial, virtual private networks (VPNs) are often used to ensure secure access to sensitive information. However, the traditional VPN model has major flaws, both in terms of its infrastructure and its usage practices.
Weaknesses of Traditional
VPN
The security flaws of
traditional VPN are multiple. On the one hand, trust in the third-party VPN
server is a major concern for many establishments, as their strength often
remains unknown. Additionally, risks are exacerbated by vulnerabilities in VPN
server operating systems, account takeover attacks, and advanced persistent
threats, such as denial of service attacks.
On the other hand,
weaknesses are also observed on the user side. They can bypass the VPN to
access the institution's data or, even worse, compromise their own access,
opening the door to security breaches.
ARCHANGEL© 2.0: An
Innovative Solution
Faced with these challenges,
PT SYDECO has developed ARCHANGEL© 2.0 NGFW, an innovative solution integrating
a VPN server secured by the new generation ARCHANGEL© 2.0 firewall, based on
the fundamental principle of Zero Trust.
This revolutionary system
places the VPN server within the establishment itself, reinforced by the new
generation ARCHANGEL© 2.0 firewall. Each element of this architecture and the
components used to mount the servers is carefully scrutinized to evaluate and
guarantee its security, thus eliminating any dependence on external third
parties.
Key Features
The use of the VPN becomes
essential within the private network: access to the internet is conditioned by
the connection to the VPN server. If this connection is interrupted, external
access is immediately suspended. Likewise, access to internal data, servers and
communications between users is strictly linked to the presence on the VPN
server. Additionally, authentication methods are designed to prevent account
takeover, thereby strengthening overall security.
ARCHANGEL© 2.0 goes even
further by creating micro-segmentation within the establishment, thus
strengthening the security of data and servers. This approach, based on the
paradigms of Zero Trust and micro-segmentation, sets a new security standard
for enterprise networks.
Conclusion
In short, ARCHANGEL© 2.0
NGFW represents a major evolution in network security. By adopting a Zero Trust
VPN model combined with intelligent micro-segmentation, this solution offers an
unrivaled level of protection, meeting today's data and network infrastructure
security needs.
