Security devices are increasingly deployed throughout enterprise networks, rather than just at the perimeter. It's more than a full-time job for the security team of any enterprise to map organizational security policies to the detailed configuration of those devices, in addition to ensuring that the configurations remain constant while needs evolve.

BT customers who subscribe to our Managed Security Monitoring have the option of outsourcing all aspects of IDS, IPS, and firewall management to us. BT's Device Management service allows your limited staff resources more time to focus on defining and executing strategic vision without getting caught in the myriad technical details of a particular vendor's product.

Why BT's Device Management Services?

Device Management is about implementing configurations in the best interests of the customer, proactively, so that devices are always providing maximum protection and surveillance. That's why BT's SLA offers unlimited changes to devices when they are initiated by BT directly. This includes new signatures and updates from the vendor, and configuration changes BT recommends based on observations from hundreds of networks and thousands of devices around the world.

Key Benefits

BT's Device Management, a value-added service for Managed Security Monitoring, benefits customers in four ways:

	DEFENSE against malicious attacks: Ensures protection of customer's network by the managed device against the latest threats, whether or not that threat has been observed on the customer network.
	COMPREHENSIVE views of security activity across your enterprise: Accommodates local policy and operational requirements of different subnets and assets in the managed device's configuration for minimizing false alarms and maximizing the device's functionality.
