Delivering enterprise-grade gateway protection, this three-year service combines anti-malware, intrusion prevention, and application control to stop threats before they reach your network. It blocks spyware installations and severs covert communications used for data exfiltration, while scanning traffic for worms, Trojans, backdoor exploits and other application-layer attacks.
Key technologies and benefits:
- Advanced intrusion prevention: Deep payload inspection detects buffer-overflow exploits, P2P/IM abuse and other evasive, application-layer threats that conventional stateful firewalls miss.
- High-performance deep packet inspection: A parallel-processing DPI engine inspects traffic up through the application layer, improving detection accuracy for web and email attacks with minimal performance impact.
- Per-packet scanning for scalability: A unique per-packet scanning architecture supports unlimited file sizes and hundreds of thousands of concurrent downloads, ensuring consistent throughput in high-traffic environments.
- Application control & bandwidth management: Monitor and enforce policies for instant messaging, peer-to-peer, and other applications to close backdoors, conserve bandwidth, and boost productivity. Policies can be applied by user, group, or zone.
- Simplified deployment & centralized management: Define global policies across security zones, group and prioritize attacks, and manage protection centrally—making rollout and ongoing administration easy across distributed networks.
