SonicWall Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, and Intrusion Prevention Service delivers robust protection against malicious spyware by blocking installation at the gateway and disrupting background communications from existing spyware. It ensures complete defense against worms, Trojans, software vulnerabilities, peer-to-peer and instant messaging applications, backdoor exploits, and other network-based threats.
Featuring integrated deep packet inspection technology, the service uses parallel searching algorithms through the application layer to enhance web, email, and application-layer attack prevention while minimizing performance impact and maximizing throughput.
With ultimate scalability and performance, its per-packet scanning engine handles unlimited file sizes and hundreds of thousands of concurrent downloads, providing unmatched protection for modern network environments.
Application control allows administrators to monitor and manage instant messaging and peer-to-peer file sharing, closing potential backdoors, improving productivity, and conserving bandwidth.
Finally, simplified deployment and management enable easy creation of global policies across security zones and prioritization of attacks, streamlining administration for distributed networks.
