SonicWALL Strengthens Enterprise Presence With Suite of New Security Solutions
Advanced Firewall with Application Intelligence and Virtual Security Appliances Are Key Steps Towards Enabling a Vision for a Secure Future
SAN FRANCISCO, March 2 -- SonicWALL, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNWL), a leading secure network infrastructure company, announced today an advanced firewall for the enterprise delivered with Application Intelligence and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS). SonicWALL also announced a portfolio of Virtual Security Appliances as part of its vision to deliver Dynamic Security for the Global Network. These new offerings underscore SonicWALL's commitment to deliver intelligent solutions providing real time adaptation as organizations change and protect against evolving threats. To learn more visit SonicWALL at the RSA Conference at booth #2551.
Vision for a Secure Future: Dynamic Security for the Global Network
Companies strive to optimize productivity and maximize ROI by leveraging the benefits of flexible IT capabilities. The drive toward borderless networks replacing static infrastructure with dynamic platforms based on cloud-based, virtualized or mobile technologies present novel challenges for network owners.
SonicWALL's vision for a secure future combines comprehensive network protection capability with security policies linked to dynamically identified users, applications and content. This unique approach liberates network owners from the straightjacket of statically defined networks which deprived them of the choice to move to more effective network architectures.
The newly announced Network Security Appliance (NSA) E8500 enables enterprises to take advantage of technology trends such as Web 2.0, converged communications and mobility without compromising performance. SonicWALL protects the network against damage by proactively blocking threats while giving network owners the total application control they need to increase overall network performance and efficiency.
"As technology has changed so too have the threats that look to exploit new vulnerabilities," said Matt Medeiros, President and CEO, SonicWALL. "The speed at which cybercriminals attack susceptible points in a network is staggering and while traditional security measures have been sufficient in the past, that is no longer the case. Our vision of Dynamic Security compels us to deliver solutions designed to remain one step ahead of the threats and, in some instances, repel the attacks before they happen."
Today's enterprises are also challenged with capitalizing on technologies such as virtualization, cloud computing and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) to overcome the previous "one-application-per-server" model. SonicWALL's suite of Virtual Security Appliances enables enterprises to take advantage of scalable security solutions while taking advantage of equipment optimization and lower costs.
SonicWALL's vision of Dynamic Security for the Global Network leverages the SonicWALL GRID Network, comprised of millions of end points that provide continuous communication, feedback and analysis. SonicWALL's Threat Center processes this real-time information, proactively delivering defenses through dynamic updates to repel emerging threats.
SonicWALL further leverages technological innovation with its Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RFDPI) technology - the foundation for all SonicWALL network security products. By combining our single engine with a high speed, multi-core, parallel hardware architecture, we enable simultaneous, multi-threat scanning and analysis at wire speed. This core technology provides the framework allowing the entire solution to scale for deployment in high bandwidth networks. Integrating advanced networking and remote access technologies enables SonicWALL to verify and defend the security of traditional and mobile wireless networks, users and applications --and their endpoint devices--while simultaneously scanning and disinfecting the data stream across platforms and perimeters. SonicWALL's policy and administration management provides scalability in parallel as your organization grows.
