The New Norm in Cybersecurity: Integrating Critical Capabilities Into One Comprehensive Solution
The urgency of cybersecurity has reached unprecedented levels.
In an era where the world is rapidly embracing digitalisation, the advantages are undeniable. However, this shift also exposes your organisation to a relentless succession of increasingly sophisticated and malicious threats. Within this context, a single cyber attack can trigger far-reaching ramifications that may harm your business. These consequences include substantial financial burdens, a tarnished reputation, customer attrition, and potential fines, among other repercussions.
Irrespective of the organisation’s size or industry, the network serves as a pivotal gateway into its digital infrastructure and communication ecosystem.
This is why modern solutions like Network Detection and Response (NDR) are becoming more and more critical as organisations race against time to fortify their cybersecurity. An NDR, in this case, is a solution organisations will need to explore as it utilises advanced capabilities to monitor network traffic to gain better visibility into potential cyber threats.
Today, a multitude of NDR solutions exist, each boasting distinct strengths and unique selling propositions. Hillstone Networks, a leading cybersecurity solutions provider, for instance, presents an integrated solution that embodies the essential qualities of effective NDR. Specifically, it seamlessly merges Hillstone’s Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered Breach Detection System (BDS) with its edge protection solution, delivering a comprehensive threat detection and prevention service that safeguards your entire network.
Additionally, with its AI and machine learning capabilities, the Hillstone NDR solution can detect both known and unknown cyber attacks, as well as prevent them in the first place, further protecting your organisation against even the most advanced threats.

Given today’s evolving threat landscape, any NDR will need to be augmented by a variety of other solutions to ensure that an organisation’s entire network is adequately protected. It’s all about achieving “defence in depth.” This is particularly true considering the many attack vectors threat actors can exploit, along with the many ways they exploit all kinds of vulnerabilities.
This is why Hillstone NDR has been specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with Hillstone’s other perimeter solutions. Together, these work like a cohesive team to detect threats on the network and respond to them accordingly.
Hillstone NDR, in particular, integrates with these solutions, which are best-in-class in themselves:
Hillstone Breach Detection System (BDS)
Artificial intelligence has become a critical component of cybersecurity, mainly because AI-powered systems can analyse vast amounts of data to identify patterns associated with known and unknown threats. It can also establish a baseline of “normal” behaviour within a network or system and detect deviations from it or abnormalities within it.
That’s exactly what Hillstone BDS can do for your network, as it leverages AI technologies and techniques that enable post-breach detection and corresponding mitigation where needed—particularly for critical servers. It can also detect and remediate advanced multi-stage, multi-layer threats to provide the kind of protection you need against today’s highly advanced attacks.
Hillstone Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)
Firewalls for the longest time have been critical to cybersecurity by serving as a barrier between trusted internal networks and untrusted external networks—that is, the Internet.
By controlling the flow of traffic into your network and allowing or denying access based on predefined rules, firewalls already provide a semblance of protection. Next-generation firewalls like those offered by Hillstone take things up several notches, providing advanced features like granular control, user identity tracking, malware inspection, and more.
Hillstone NGFW is as advanced as firewalls get today, boasting high-security performance, ultra-flexible expansion, complete advanced threat detection and prevention, and automated intelligent policy operation. Based on newly engineered hardware architecture, Hillstone’s future-ready NGFW offers industry-leading application layer performance that can handle today’s threat-infested landscape.
Hillstone Network Intrusion Prevention System (NIPS)
A Network Intrusion Prevention System (NIPS) is another critical component of cybersecurity as it actively monitors for malicious or unwanted behaviour—and then proceeds to take automated action to prevent or mitigate potential threats.
Hillstone NIPS provides that kind of capability, analysing, detecting, and blocking advanced threats in real-time using sophisticated technologies specifically engineered to detect advanced threats. In tandem with Hillstone’s NGFW, this NIPS provides intelligent layered security that can protect your network even against advanced threats.
A Winning Cybersecurity Combination
This trifecta of AI-powered post-breach detection, next-generation firewall, and supercharged NIPS enables effective threat detection and mitigation in real time across the entire network. It also ensures that critical assets and sensitive data are duly protected from all sorts of attackers using every imaginable tactic.
Hillstone’s NDR solution is just one among numerous solutions available in the market, and it is advisable to thoroughly examine these options to identify the most suitable one for your organisation.
