Key takeaways:

  • BullWall Server Intrusion Protection offers a robust solution to the pressing issue of unauthorized access during Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) sessions.
  • The integration of multi-factor authentication (MFA) and the BullWall Ransomware Containment system not only blocks unauthorized access but also provides an effective means of containing and neutralizing ransomware attacks at their inception.
  • BullWall Server Intrusion Protection represents a proactive and practical solution for organizations seeking to enhance their server security.

Bullwall announced the launch of its new Server Intrusion Protection solution this week. In an age where remote access is integral to business operations and security concerns loom large, this solution aims to prevent unauthorized access during Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) sessions due to compromised credentials.

BullWall is a cybersecurity solution provider that allows organizations to block ransomware attacks targeting corporate data and critical IT infrastructure. The company offers specialized solutions to protect servers against unauthorized intrusion in enterprise environments.

According to BullWall, Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) has historically been a common attack vector for ransomware and other cyberattacks. It lets threat actors deploy ransomware on vulnerable machines that could lead to data encryption and exfiltration.

How BullWall Server Intrusion Protection works?

BullWall Server Intrusion Protection leverages the BullWall Ransomware Containment service to contain ransomware on the systems. It provides a multi-factor authentication challenge (such as a traditional MFA or a token grid). The service blocks the intrusion and prevents unauthorized access in case the MFA challenge fails. It initiates the BullWall Response Protocol that triggers an alert, blocks the breached admin/user accounts, and then isolates the device.

“One of the biggest stumbling blocks to obtaining cyber insurance is the requirement for MFA on servers in addition to endpoints, for every login attempt. BullWall Server Intrusion Protection provides a game-changing MFA solution for server access that doesn’t require a second device. We’re thrilled to offer a solution that increases security, reduces user friction and stops today’s most common attack vector,” said Morten Gammelgard, BullWall Co-Founder and EVP of EMEA.

Overall, BullWall Server Intrusion Protection represents a timely and practical response to the ever-growing threat landscape. It should allow organizations to bolster their defenses and take proactive steps toward a more resilient and secure digital future.
