| gateProtect Announces New UTM Solution for Corporate Networks gateProtect has announced its new Z Series of Unified Threat Management (UTM) appliances. The first product in the series is the GPZ-2500, gateProtect's first UTM solution for the high-end enterprise market. The new security appliance was designed for use in corporate networks and other demanding network environments with several thousand users. In the gateProtect product range, it sets new benchmarks for data security and performance, with the integrated crypto accelerator hardware enabling VPN data throughput of 2.5 gigabits per second. The appliance can be managed centrally via the gateProtect Command Center, which is easy to use while providing a comprehensive overview of network security. gateProtect also announced today that it has redesigned two appliance models, the GPX-800 and the GPX-1000. With its latest UTM product, the GPZ-2500, gateProtect is responding to the exponential growth of both network data traffic and security requirements. The new enterprise appliance is specially designed to meet the security needs of large organisations. In these companies, many existing security architectures are beginning to reach their limits, as they were not designed to cope with extensive staff mobility and large numbers of mobile devices connected to the corporate VPN. The gateProtect GPZ-2500 provides companies – even very large ones – with a cost-effective and consistent level of security throughout the enterprise, without compromising on performance. The appliance has two hard disks (RAID 1) and a power supply unit with built-in redundancy, increasing its resilience while supporting up to two million simultaneous connections. As a result, the GPZ-2500 meets the performance, redundancy and scalability requirements of large company headquarters, Virtual Private Networks (VPN) and data centres with thousands of users. The new gateProtect appliance is available in two models: the GPZ-2500 and the GPZ-2500a. Both deliver a firewall throughput of 7 gigabits per second (Gbps). The GPZ-2500 is equipped with 18 network gigabit ports and the GPZ-2500a with 14. Management is made easy and efficient with the eGUI graphical administration interface, and can be extended by integrating the additional monitoring and analysis functions available in the gateProtect Command Center. The gateProtect GPZ-2500 and the redesigned GPX-800 and GPX-1000 appliances are available immediately. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Computing News :: home page |
