The SonicWall Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, and Intrusion Prevention Service protects networks from malicious spyware by blocking installation at the gateway and disrupting background communications that transmit sensitive data.
Comprehensive Intrusion Prevention: It scans packet payloads to detect worms, Trojans, software vulnerabilities, peer-to-peer and instant messaging applications, backdoor exploits, and other malicious code, providing complete application layer threat protection.
Integrated Deep Packet Inspection: The high-performance deep packet inspection engine uses parallel search algorithms up to the application layer, improving web, email, and application attack prevention while minimizing firewall performance impact and optimizing memory for exceptional throughput.
Ultimate Scalability & Performance: With a per-packet scanning engine, it handles unlimited file sizes and hundreds of thousands of concurrent downloads, delivering unmatched scalability and performance for modern network environments.
Application Control: Administrators can monitor and manage instant messaging and peer-to-peer file sharing, closing potential backdoors while improving productivity and conserving bandwidth.
Simplified Deployment & Management: Global policies can be applied across security zones, and attacks can be prioritized, simplifying deployment and ongoing management for distributed networks while maintaining robust security.
