Flexible & Powerful Global Management
Today's complex networks, sophisticated threats and legal compliance requirements demand a new level of administration and oversight to maintain a high standard for security, reliability and consistent policy control. Without centralized management, unified policy enforcement, and active monitoring and reporting, organizations are more likely to experience network attacks, outages and security vulnerabilities. The award-winning SonicWALL Global Management System (GMS) helps to manage these risks by offering centralized management of security rules across a distributed environment, redundancy and load balancing, and policy and compliance reporting for deployments of all sizes.
Small and medium-sized businesses (SMB) benefit from GMS' unified network security management, real-time monitoring and alerting, and robust reporting. For enterprise customers, SonicWALL GMS streamlines security policy management and deployment, which minimizes administration overhead and lowers the total cost of ownership. For managed service providers (MSP), SonicWALL GMS simplifies the administration of thousands of remote clients and creates opportunities for higher margin subscription-based services, which assist in yielding a rapid return on investment.
