F5 Distributed Cloud add-on for enterprise server clusters — Threat Stack intrusion detection, response, and management
F5 App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) assists with compliance and risk mitigation. Contact us to learn if F5 AIP is available with your Nexcess solution.
What is F5 App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?
"Formerly known as Threat Stack, the F5 Distributed Cloud AIP Agent is a multi-layered compliance and vulnerability monitoring solution for servers. The agent can be deployed for intrusion detection, vulnerability assessments, container security, or file integrity monitoring. The result is faster threat detection and remediation using automated rulesets and machine learning."
What does F5 AIP do?
"F5 Distributed Cloud ensures your sites are always compliant and secure. It makes life easier for your DevOps and SecOps teams. Threat Stack uses machine learning and cloud telemetry to identify any security risks on every layer of your cloud infrastructure. It runs 24/7/365 and provides immediate flagging of suspicious activities on your network."
Who can get the F5 Distributed Cloud add-on?
"At this time, Nexcess dedicated and enterprise customers are eligible to add F5 security service. This includes SIP plans, bare metal servers, dedicated cloud solutions, and enterprise server cluster environments."
