“We take security very seriously, and so do our customers,” said Robert Jenkins, CEO of CloudSigma. “We’ve received many requests from our customers about offering this enterprise-grade firewalling. We listened and delivered. We didn’t want to deliver a half-baked product. By allowing customers to create policies independent of servers, multiple requirements can easily be maintained, adjusted and reapplied over time.”
With CloudSigma’s new network policies, customers are able to configure and constrain both inbound and outbound traffic while defining these policies in a simple fashion within the Web interface or directly over the API. The policies range from a single rule that blocks all external public IP traffic, to complex schemes that only allow connections to certain ports from a set of IPs. Network policies are saved and then applied to one or more virtual servers as required. Furthermore, network policies can be reconfigured and reapplied to running servers without service disruption. CloudSigma understands that convenience drives usage and real security requires convenient, easy-to-use security features; its new networking policies deliver that.
"Firewalls are still the fundamental building block for security,” said Sergio Loureiro, co-founder and CEO of SecludIT. “CloudSigma's network policies are very powerful and some of the most complete that I've used on an IaaS platform. Being able to control everything via the API is a big plus. On top of that, CloudSigma provides solutions to help customers manage the complexity of the network policies for big deployments and to avoid misconfigurations.”
"This feature is very important for us because we can use policies to restrict communication within our private network,” said Sébastien Ruel, President of QCCT. “We don’t need to configure dedicated firewalls and this saves us money. Using network policies is fast, easy and granular. We also use this feature to add security to our exposed firewall servers. No other IaaS provider has such flexibility. Without CloudSigma we could not do business the way we do."
