Protect SharePoint from Exposure to the Internet
If you have a SharePoint site, and are allowing Windows (NTLM/Kerberos) login for users outside your firewall, this represents a serious security risk.
Attackers can exploit loopholes and weaknesses in critical Windows services such as WinLogon or RDP to brute-force your access credentials or simply bring your server to its knees. In a worst case scanario, key SharePoint components can expose details about your organizational structure that will help hackers develop further human engineering attacks, expanding the risk beyond just the content stored in SharePoint itself.
Beowulf protects you by shutting SharePoint's front door, potentially offloading the burden of authentication to completely different hardware that can be hardened against DDoS and similar threats. Beowulf further protects SharePoint by monitoring repeated login attempts from the same IP address or against the same user ID, introducing exponentially increasing delays that help to frustrate such attempts to gain unauthorized access.
