IT systems are increasingly at risk of attacks. The number and the kind of attacks are continuously increasing and their authors are no longer simple hackers but real “cybercriminals” whose actions aim at provoking direct and indirect economic damages and at affecting company data. Security is a very complex issue that tends to be considered only at the infrastructure level, often ignoring the dangers represented at the application level and their internal threat. Security business needs are mainly prevention, information protection, data recovery, business continuity and rules compliance (Basel 2, Sarbanes-Oxley).

Akhela is able to manage the entire logical security process both at the infrastructure and the application level thanks to its modular, scalable and integrated services and the products of international partners. The process consists of a first analysis step which produces a security assessment and risk analysis for the customer, an implementation step, where the customer’s systems are made secure according to agreed priorities and parameters and, last but not least, a maintenance step, where security levels are constantly verified and updated.
