Intrusion delivers prevention-first cybersecurity. The Shield platform blocks malicious network traffic before it reaches the endpoint, using the Global Threat Engine and 8.5 billion IP and DNS combinations refined since 2001.
Our POV is designed to feel low risk and easy: deploy Shield in observe or protect mode in your customer’s environment, prove what would (or did) get blocked, walk away with a customer-ready report. No theater. No extended sales cycle.
What threats are in the environment right now. What would Shield block. What other tools are missing.
What they currently can’t see. New hostnames, IPs, MACs, traffic flows, communication patterns. The blind spots filled in.
The real day-to-day with Shield in the stack. How much analyst time. How many alerts. What the SOC stops doing.
Executive summary. Technical appendix. Sample reports. Recommended next actions. Materials your client can take to their board.
Inline at the network edge or via Span/Mirror. Observe Mode available for risk-free start. Up to 10 Gbps throughput.
Native AWS or Azure deployment. Per-direction policy support. Observe Mode available for cloud workload visibility before enforcement.
Software agent install on Windows or Android. Reputation filtering and (Android-only) ZTNA. Under five minutes per device.
One technical lead from your team. One sponsor on the customer side. Optional: their security architect and/or CISO depending on environment scope.
Network insertion point, cloud account access, or device install permissions, depending on the platforms chosen for the POV.
Real customer environment preferred. Test or staging environment acceptable for initial validation. Defined success criteria up front.
Documented rollback approach for each deployment. Quickly revert enforcement if needed. Minimal impact to existing network configuration.
Deploy and activate. Confirm connectivity. Begin baseline.
Initial findings emerge. Traffic patterns surface. First blocks recorded.
Confirm what’s being blocked. Tune permits if needed. Build the customer narrative.
Executive summary delivered. Technical appendix shared. Recommended next actions.
Customer-facing report. Plain-language outcomes. Suitable for the board, the auditor, or the renewal conversation.
Detailed evidence per blocked event. Source, destination, timestamp, reputation reason. The proof your engineers want to see.
What to deploy first if moving forward. How to scope a first customer rollout. Where the biggest risk-reduction wins are.
Start in Observe Mode. Stratus and Shield OnPremise support it. You see exactly what would be blocked before anything is. Move to Protect when ready, with a documented rollback path.
Reputation-based blocking with simple permit workflows for exceptions. Permits can be set at individual or group level. Full visibility into why something was blocked.
Shield works alongside your stack, not against it. Most customers run Shield in addition to their EDR, SIEM, and firewall, not instead of them.
Hours, not weeks. Initial deploy is hours per platform. Ongoing operations are autonomous. You don’t need to dedicate analyst time to keep Shield running.
Every Shield POV concludes with a reporting package that gives your team the evidence to make a decision. This is not a sales deck. It is the actual data from your environment.
The POV reporting package is designed to answer the question your board, your security committee, or your customer will ask: "What did Shield actually block, and what would have happened without it?"
