Pragmatix recently deployed a front-line Intrusion detection and protection service, managed by IBM to keep our hosted environment secure. This service analyzes all of the traffic coming in and out of the network, looking for suspicious traffic, which it then blocks in real time. This prevents worms and new viruses from penetrating our hosted network.

Below is the report from June of this year. The servicee found a total of 41,450 events, of those events 10,780 were deemed suspicious and blocked from entering the network.
