Key Applications - ZyXEL Communications ZYWALL USG 1000 Brochure & Specs

Various VPN solutions to simplify secure access
Establishing VPN tunnels is a good solution to provide a safe way to access necessary network resources remotely with any device anytime, anywhere.
However due to the complicated configuration, it could be quite difficult for non-technical employees such as sales people to use. The ZyWALL USG Series is
equipped with the "EASY VPN" solution to push configuration files to the VPN clients automatically; this eliminates the configuration efforts while securing the
access at the same time. In addition, the USG Series supports L2TP VPN technology on iPhones, Android phones and many other mobile devices as L2TP VPN
enables employees in remote places to connect to the headquarters with easy and free access.
Real-time, dynamic malware protection to safeguard business networks
Web security powered by BlueCoat and Commtouch
With more valuable information being placed on the data cloud, impacts from the ever-growing cybercrime should be treated seriously. As modern malware
become very sophisticated and difficult to repel, the ZyWALL USG's content filter from Blue Coat and Commtouch, the leading solution provider, reduces costs
and extends protection by integrating a comprehensive, continuously updated database featuring millions of URLs, IP addresses and domains. With the
content filter, the USG Series not only enables real-time protection to deter emerging Web threats including malware, phishing and Zombies/bots, but also
monitors or blocks certain sites to maintain employee productivity.
Email security powered by Commtouch
The ZyWALL USG Series delivers industry-leading protection, powered by Commtouch, against spam, phishing and virus-laden emails. The extremely high
performance of Commtouch technology comes from the unique recurrent pattern detection (RPD) mechanism that possesses its superior capability through
analyzing millions of new patterns each day (24x7x365) to block all the associated messages real-time. In addition, the ZyWALL USG applies sender-based IP
reputation to remove over 80% of unwanted mails and to take advantage of the zero-hour virus outbreak protection feature, which is capable of blocking or
delaying suspicious messages hours before commercial anti-virus signatures are available.
High Availability (HA) ensures non-stop business operations
Loss of mission-critical connection can cause serious, and sometimes disastrous, consequences to businesses. The ZyWALL USG 300/1000/2000 Series provides
HA features to guarantee a secure, reliable connection between the protected network and the Internet.
• Multiple WAN ports and configurable load balancing between ports.
• An auxiliary (backup) Internet connection known as out-of-band management.
• A backup ZyWALL in case the master ZyWALL fails (Device HA).
