ORION - Data Security Platform

ORION Data Security Platform is a data leakage prevention system that provides solutions against possible unauthorized access, use or sharing scenarios of sensitive data with common management panel, network and endpoint environments.

Identifying policy and rule: Identifying exceptions, identifying customized conditions, determining impact and actions.

Identifying content classifier: Identifying the content to be protected. Classifiying by features such as dictionary terms, regular expressions or file properties, classifying file with one-to-one or fragmented summary, classifying capabilities with machine learning methods.

Identifying institution entity: Identifying the sources and destinations of the data to be protected, the endpoint devices or applications that can be used. Creating app black and white list, setting app screenshot permission.

Analyzing and reporting record:

  • Ability to track records of events taking place in the Management Center,
  • Events that occur in the Management Center network agents,
  • Data leakage records and operating system events occurring on endpoints,
  • Data breaches detected as a result of network scanning.

Identifying user role Creating Admin Center roles (Event Manager, Policy Manager, System Admin, Super Admin, Customized)

Others: SIEM and active directory server integration. Secure file storage and review (forensic). Responding to temporary stop requests, interoperability with 3rd party file tagging products. Backing up database with advanced, editing central endpoint settings, setting up mail notification server, receiving system updates remotely, automatic end-user time synchronization with scalable architecture.

Data analysis in use:

  • File system check (cut, copy and paste)
  • Endpoint "http/https" channel security with browser plugin
  • External media channel security
  • Printer channel security
  • Preventing taking screenshots of unauthorized applications
  • Application control (trusted and untrusted application)
  • Endpoint e-mail channel security with the Outlook ORION add-in

Static data analysis:

  • File and directory indexing and tagging
  • Veri tabanı indeksleme (PostgreSQL, MS SQL, Oracle, MySQL…)
  • Manual file tagging
  • Automatic file tagging at certain periods with time synchronization

Operating system event tracking:

  • Events related to system usage (New process start, process stop, service start, service stop, new program installation, program removal)
  • User related events (Adding and logging new admin user, deleting and logging admin user, password changing and logging of admin user, adding and logging domain user, deleting and logging domain user).
  • File and directory related events (File creation, file deletion, file name change, file content modification, file security settings change)

Policy check:

E-mail content and attachment control. Sender and receiver domain inquiries. Taking policy-based actions. Policy-based action (blocking, encryption, quarantine, logging).

Encrypted e-mail check:

TLS is a third-party encryption application.

Policy check: 

Content and file control (http/https). URL category and IP based blocking. Taking policy-based actions.

Harmful Content control:

Integration with third-party malware services.

DERBENT - Secure Remote Access System

Client Side

  • Compressed image
  • Installation of security tools (Antivirus, Logging Agents etc.),
  • Limitation of user environment authorizations,
  • Only install agent software suitable for this environment.

Server Side

  • Keeping the certificate of the server in the HSM,
  • Server hardening,
  • Remote access management (VPN authorization definitions, instant client monitoring, etc.).

End User Side

  • The user must be registered with the authority that manages the corporate working directories.
  • The user must have the password for his own account.
  • The user should only have a self-owned and authenticated certificate running on other hardware.

This design achieves 3 important goals:

Zero Trust

  • Client
  • Presenter

Policy Check / Connection Blocking

  • Operating System Security Policies
  • Security Applications Control

2 Factor Authentication

  • LDAP Integration
  • Identity Card/Token Certificate Inquiry (OSCP)

Client settings are normally kept in a readable file. VPN session is started according to the settings in this file.

In Secure Remote Access:

  • The user is encrypted with the public key.
  • When necessary, it is opened only with the user secret key.
  • It will be blocked from working in another domain.

The client installation package is prepared to be run only on the environments belonging to the corporate domain. In this way:

  • Client software, certificate usage infrastructure and encrypted settings file can only be run on a corporate environment.
  • During installation, the user's certificate must also be connected to the system.
  • The settings file is edited and encrypted according to the user's certificate during installation.

The Server Zero Trust Certificate is stored by the HSM and the client's authentication is handled by the HSM.

In this way:

  • Clients are prevented from being forwarded to a cloned server.
  • HSM only fulfills requests of a VPN server serving from a specific IP that it needs to respond to.

A9his0vp_1e1ige3_g2s

Domain Control: Ajan sadece belirli domain’e dâhil bilgisayarlara kurulabilmektedir.

Encryption: Configuration files are encrypted with the certificate that the person has.

Bypass blocking: The user is prevented from making a VPN connection by bypassing the controls.

Anti-Clone: Server cloning is prevented by keeping the server certificate on the HSM.

Audit: With policy control, the agent is assured of endpoint security.

External Certification Authority: The external user certificate authority controls the generation of unnecessary certificates as well as reliable certificate management.

Group VPN: With the grouping feature, ISOLE VPN tunnels will be created for different units or roles.

Restricted Internet Access: By providing internet access only with VPN, user internet access is restricted. In case of limited internet access, Remediation Network is activated to meet the update needs.

Remediation Network: If the user computer fails to pass the policies, it is directed to a different VPN and network for needs such as updates.

Client-Server Authentication: For the "zero trust" mechanism, the server and client authenticate each other before the session starts.
