What is a Firewall?What is a Firewall?

Firewalls provide the first line of perimeter defense by:

Preventing unauthorized access to a network, while allowing in authorized users.

Provides ability to expose internet services in a limited ability to the outside world via a DMZ.

What is a VPN?What is a VPN?

VPNs are the solution to ensure that data confidentiality and integrity are protected in dynamic environments.

VPNs provide protection from data interception of unprotected assets using secure connectivity, encryption, and traffic authentication.

Company LANs and remoteusers can connect to thenetwork using the sameInternet access methods:dialup, (DSL), cable,ISDN, and wireless.

What is Intrusion What is Intrusion Prevention (IPS)Prevention (IPS)

IPS adds a layer of protection that firewalls alone cannot address. Follows are some key threats where IPS provides added protection:– Worms– Trojan Horses– Bots– Application Attacks– Port Scans and Hacking attempts– Covert Channel Communications

What is Content Security?What is Content Security?

Content Security represents a myriad of network security protections designed to protect information, users and devices stemming from common threats Comprehensive Malware Protection

–Integrates antivirus and malware technology to stop virtually all threats–Stops viruses, spyware, adware, jokeware, hacking tools, etc.

Advanced Content Filtering–Secures employee productivity and reduces legal liability–Stops phishing, spyware downloads, spyware “phone home” attempts, inappropriate browsing

Integrated Message Security–Removes unsolicited email (spam)–Stops email-born trojans, viruses, spware, etc.
