DEEP PACKET INSPECTION FIREWALL
Going far beyond simple stateful inspection, SonicWALL’s E-Class Network Security Appliance (NSA) deep packet inspection engine (DPI) scans against multiple application types and protocols, ensuring your enterprise-class network is protected from both internal and external attacks as well as application vulnerabilities. The NSA Series combines enterprise-level threat protection and scalability with an ultra-high-speed parallel performance architecture that employs up to 16 processor cores. Unlike other scanning engines, SonicWALL’s DPI engine is not limited by file size or the amount of concurrent traffic it can scan, making these solutions second to none. By working at the application layer, DPI also protects against hidden application vulnerabilities that may be inadvertently letting attackers in through an unknown back door.
VPN AND GLOBAL SECURITY CLIENT
SonicWALL virtual private networking (VPN) technology lets you establish a secure and extensive enterprise VPN that is easy-to-manage and administer. The SonicWALL® Global Security Client combines gateway enforcement, central management, configuration flexibility and software deployment to deliver comprehensive desktop security to mobile workers and corporate networks.
ROUTING, BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT & VLANS
The SonicWALL® E-Class NSA Series appliances provide the control, flexibility, management and scalable features to fit many different enterprise deployment requirements. With support for advanced routing features, configurable VLAN interfaces and bandwidth management controls for the most sensitive applications, NSAs provide granular control to meet the complex network deployment requirements of enterprise organisations.
ENTERPRISE WIRELESS NETWORKING
Utilising continuously updated services, SonicWALL makes enterprise wireless networks as safe as wired networks. Combining deep packet inspection, required wireless encryption, and VPN technology, SonicWALL provides both wired and wireless users with multiple zones of access, while offering administrators total control over which network resources get accessed by which users. SonicWALL® E-Class Network Security Appliance (NSA) Series wireless solutions offer as much gateway content protection as its wired solutions, with integrated anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention and application firewall.
HIGH AVAILABILITY
The SonicWALL® E-Class NSA Series is engineered to meet the stringent uptime demands of the enterprise. NSAs offer hardware redundancy capabilities like hot swappable power supplies and fans, stateful high availability using a dedicated interface, software configurable load balancing and VPN failover for disaster recovery of mission-critical data communications.
CENTRALISED POLICY MANAGEMENT
The SonicWALL® Global Management System (GMS) gives enterprise network administrators and solutions providers the control to monitor, configure and report on hundreds or thousands of SonicWALL appliances from a single intuitive interface. Real-time GMS monitoring features send alerts as soon as an issue is detected. With GMS, administrators can easily view, group, and manage the policies and configurations of SonicWALL appliances on local or distributed networks. Custom GMS reports and policies can help you streamline internal or regulatory compliance initiatives.
REPORTING
Enterprise administrators require deep intelligence about network utilisation and user activity, without having to sift through large amounts of data. SonicWALL® ViewPoint™ software graphically illustrates network activity, including bandwidth utilisation, VPN reporting, observed threats, and Web site usage. ViewPoint’s customised reporting features make it easier to comply with regulatory mandates such as Sarbanes-Oxley and HIPAA. ViewPoint reports are and easy to read and distribute, disseminating comprehensive insight into enterprise network usage trends and security events.
LOWER TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP
Threats to enterprise network resources are becoming more sophisticated and more persistent than ever before. Yet no enterprise has an unlimited security budget. As a relentless innovator in the secure infrastructure market, SonicWALL is committed to improving the performance and productivity of businesses by engineering the cost out of building and running secure networks. This commitment is evident in the low cost of ownership found in the SonicWALL® E-Class NSA Series.
