UTM, Firewall, Remote Access
Due to increase in range and complexity of online threats it is essential to control all communication between the local network and the Internet. The increasing number of companies demand and implement controls in case of deliberate abuse of company resources (p2p communication, social networks, games, etc.) and at the same time they want to protect their networks from accidental access to harmful content (phishing, XSS, SPAM urls, etc.).
The use of multiple defense mechanisms such as antivirus protection, Web filtering, IPS/IDS and application control solution Unified Threat Management (UTM) ensures a secure communication with useful resources and blocks all aspects of communication which are malicious and unwanted. These systems include the following features in one device: firewall feature, antivirus, antispyware and antispam protection, Intrusion Detection System/Intrusion Prevention System (IDS/IPS), application control, Data Leakage Prevention (DLP), VPN access and Web filtering features. UTM devices have an option to be used for other network features: WAN optimisation, Wireless LAN management, Endpoint Protection etc.
Regular firewall systems have just some of the features present in a UTM device. Their solutions for computer network protection are traditional and include blocking the traffic to IP address and port.
Remote access solutions provide users with secure access to company resources from any location in the world. Remote access is based on the use of traditional PPTP and IPSEC VPN solutions or modern SSL VPN dial up or VPN portal solutions. Portal solutions are specific because they provide users with access to all necessary internal company resources from a single location (SSL Portal) without the need to be familiar with internal infrastructure, server names, services etc.
Remote access solutions provide high level control because they define who has access to what and from which location, so it is possible to allow or ban access to certain resources.
Advanced SSL VPN portal solutions such as Microsoft Unified Access Gateway and Fortigate devices, enable defining access levels to certain resources depending on the device used for connecting or depending on meeting certain security requests (type and version of antivirus programme, operating system, service pack level etc.)
Business benefits:
