PLANO, TX / ACCESSWIRE / December 10, 2024 / Intrusion Inc. (NASDAQ:INTZ), a leader in cyberattack prevention solutions, today announced the expansion of its cybersecurity portfolio with the introduction of Intrusion Shield Sentinel, a high-performance monitoring appliance built for large enterprises and carriers allowing for comprehensive visibility across the largest and most complex network environments. Shield Sentinel uniquely offers the option of full Lambda monitoring of fiber trunks at speeds up to 100 Gbps bidirectional while comprehensively capturing DNS queries and answers, flow records for foundational internet protocols, and robust logging data for advanced forensic analysis and threat hunting. The solution has already been deployed as a part of a recently signed contract to support a customer's cybersecurity efforts and has yielded successful results.

Shield Sentinel supports the full array of enhanced features, including continuous DNS and traffic flow logging, detailed PCAP capture at rates of up to 100 Gbps, and decodes for critical secondary internet services protocols. Shield Sentinel simplifies data handling through direct CSV file output. This streamlined approach makes integration into security operations workflows seamless, as data can be readily ingested into SIEM platforms or evaluated directly by threat teams. The result is an agile, data-rich solution that empowers security analysts and administrators to rapidly identify anomalies, investigate potential threats, and strengthen their network defense posture using their existing toolchains.

"Shield Sentinel is designed to address the complex security challenges faced by large organizations," said Tony Scott, CEO of Intrusion. "The high-performance solution delivers a scalable, data-rich monitoring appliance that simplifies threat hunting, streamlines compliance, and enhances overall security posture."

In addition to advanced threat hunting, Shield Sentinel delivers essential capabilities for regulatory compliance and long-term log retention. Every observed traffic flow is meticulously recorded, producing a wealth of historical data that can be referenced for audits, incident response, or compliance reporting. This ensures not only unparalleled forensic clarity but also provides a rich dataset from which teams can derive strategic insights and strengthen their overall security posture.

As networks grow increasingly complex and compliance standards more stringent, Shield Sentinel's comprehensive data exports become invaluable. Security teams and investigators can leverage the platform's exhaustive output to delve deeply into traffic trends, pinpoint subtle anomalies in high-speed fiber trunk traffic, or correlate long-term patterns against known threat intelligence. The platform's ability to monitor and log every facet of network activity gives organizations the confidence and the means to evolve from reactive defense postures to proactive, intelligence-driven security strategies.
