why
RouteFinder
Plug-and-Play Security Appliance
The RouteFinder security appliance plugs in at the Internet connection
of each office. It provides three independent network interfaces (LAN,
WAN and DMZ) that separate the protected office network from the
Internet while offering an optional public network for hosting Web, e-mail
or ftp servers. Each network interface is independently monitored and
visually displayed on the front of the appliance.
State-of-the-Art Firewall Security
The RouteFinder security appliance is ICSA-certified to provide
network layer security utilizing Stateful Packet Inspection,
the sophisticated firewall technology found in large enterprise
firewalls, to protect the network against intruders and Denial of Service
(DoS) attacks. It also uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to hide
internal, non-routable IP addresses and allows internal hosts with
unregistered IP addresses to function as Internet-reachable servers.
In addition to network layer security, the RouteFinder security appliance
provides application level security using SMTP, HTTP, DNS and SOCKS
proxies. It also utilizes filters to block specific Internet content to protect
against viruses, dangerous ActiveX controls, Java, Javascript, and Cookies.
An automatic update feature provides the highest level of security by
automatically downloading and installing the latest system software
and security patches protecting against any newly discovered hacker
attacks with a single click.
E-mail Anti-virus Protection
Computer viruses are one of the leading security threats
to Internet-connected networks. Users can unknowingly
receive and launch dangerous viruses that can damage
data or cause computer crashes. Viruses can also be used as delivery
mechanisms for hacking tools, compromising the security of the network,
even if a firewall is installed.
An optional e-mail virus protection subscription utilizes Kaspersky's
high-performance, ICSA-tested, anti-virus engine which checks both
incoming and outgoing e-mail for viruses in real-time. Automatic
anti-virus updates are downloaded at user-defined intervals to ensure
protection is current. The e-mail anti-virus protection can be easily
renewed on an annual basis. Ask about our free 30-day evaluation.
