Policy
Based Management |
| |
• Distributed policy enforcement
points with centralized policy definition points |
| |
• Enforces traffic rules before the
packet is transmitted over the physical medium to save
valuable network bandwidth |
| |
• Facilitates user or machine specific
policies based on logged on user identification, MAC address,
IP address, NetBIOS name or DNS name |
| |
• Policy integrity verification with
round-the-clock (24/7) surveillance |
| |
• Configurable real time alerts at
endpoint to notify user of policy violation and logging
to a central database |
| |
 |
Network
Optimization |
| |
• Eliminates many delays, connection
timeouts and bottlenecks that are typical in server-centric
solutions |
| |
• Regulates network activities such
as web access, file transfers, chat sessions, e-mail etc.
by traffic volume or time of day |
| |
• Automatically detects and restricts
transfer of bandwidth gorging audio, video, music and image files |
| |
• Throttles endpoint traffic with
preferential treatment to specific users/nodes during network congestion |
| |
• Enforces rate controls for critical
network applications (Quality of Service for TCP and UDP traffic) |
| |
• Regulates bandwidth hogging applications
with rate controls |
| |
 |
Advanced
Endpoint Network Security |
| |
• Provides endpoint firewall security
and intrusion prevention to supplement traditional server-based
fire walls |
| |
• Inbound and outbound protection
to keep hackers away |
| |
• Service and application level policy
controls to block unauthorized applications and Trojans
from sending or receiving data over the network |
| |
 |
Content
Security and Intellectual Property Protection |
| |
• Rules may be enforced based on
IP packet header and payload |
| |
• Performs stateful inspection of
standard protocols (RFC compliant) for context-sensitive
content scanning |
| |
• Disarms suspect e-mail attachments
and filters content |
| • Filters web sites and HTTP content
with support for several standard protocols |
| |
| |
 |
Traffic
Monitoring and Profiling |
| |
• Remote traffic recording on endpoints
simultaneously to capture network activity |
| |
• Network activity logging with detailed
connection level information for network forensics and
traffic reports |
| |
• Detailed traffic and management reports to facilitate
usage analysis and policy definition |
| |
• Graphical views of traffic metrics by node or service
for profiling and network monitoring |
