X5 and X506 Unified Security Platforms
®
OVERVIEW
Companies of all sizes are being attacked at an unprecedented rate.
Most attacks are deliberate, but non-intentional ones do occur. They
are, however, always serious and can be disastrous. Attacks can be in
the form of network outages, they can claim valuable bandwidth from
productivity applications and in some instances even perpetrate the
theft of company or personal information from unwilling individuals.
Because of these attacks, networks today require comprehensive network
protection along with multi-zone functionality allowing granular seg-
mentation for better control over security policies and network traffic.
Solutions up to now have included various security appliances that
were not integrated and did not provide a single means of management.
3Com
®
X5 and X506 Unified Security Platforms deliver unprecedented
threat protection for organizations with several branch offices or
numerous teleworkers—helping prevent business disruptions, revenue
loss and damage to an organization's reputation caused by security
breaches.
Built on the award-winning 3Com TippingPoint
System (IPS) architecture, the X5 and X506 Unified Security Platforms
combine industry-leading IPS capabilities with virtual private network
(VPN) support, stateful packet inspection firewall, application band-
width management, audio/video IP multicast routing and web content
filtering.
This comprehensive security solution safeguards the network from
attacks and misuse, and delivers policy-based multisite connectivity for
real-time business-critical applications such as Voice over IP (VoIP).
High-availability features help ensure wirespeed traffic flow even in
the event of network or internal device error or loss of power to the
primary device.
