Cyber Security and Geo-IP Filtering

With the constant threat of security risks, Sand Solutions continuously invests in technology to keep our hosted customers secure and compliant.  With Geo-IP Filtering, Sand Solutions can restrict or drop IP addresses based on the country they originate from or are destined to.  Whether going to or from a country, client specific firewall rules are put in place to specific areas of your Hybrid SaaS network, while disallowing them to other areas. Networkworld.com reports that Geo-IP Filtering can “vastly reduce unwanted and malicious traffic.” and PacketViper reports Geo-IP Filtering is of “crucial important to your cyber-security system“. This security feature allows Sand Solutions to reduce traffic entering each Hybrid SaaS network, forcing attackers through areas highly scrutinized with higher security features such as IPS, AV, AS or Botnet Filters.
