CompuCom Systems along with Entercept offers a cost-effective server security solution that is designed to prevent security attacks from harming mission-critical servers. This solution is preventative and differs from standard intrusion detection methods in that it blocks malicious sabotage, rather than merely alerting administrators that an attempt has already been made.

CompuCom's Securing the Enterprise service combines its ISO 9001 enterprise server and network integration expertise with Entercept's intrusion prevention software (IPS) solution to offer a proactive security system.

CompuCom assesses current defenses for Microsoft and Sun servers, designs a layered system of defense using Entercept's IPS Appliance, and then implements the security solution to shield enterprise servers from attacks and damaging computer worms, such as Nimda and Code Red. CompuCom also helps clients implement solutions quickly through remote initialization of security appliances. In addition, CompuCom's On Alert! Monitoring 24x7 service provides remote management solutions to proactively alert clients of security breach attempts.
