New StoneGate FW-315 Firewall Appliance Tackles Security Demands of Small Networks and Branch OfficesATLANTA --(Business Wire)-- Stonesoft today introduced the StoneGate FW-315 firewall/VPN appliance with UTM functionality, which has been designed for small networks and branch offices. StoneGate FW-315 provides reliable data security combined with high availability features, which guarantee network continuity at all times. Today, remote offices and small networks are highly vulnerable to breaches and malware. Many offices require direct Internet connections thereby creating a need for comprehensive protection against inbound and outbound attacks. Often, computers at remote locations are at a higher risk of infection and compromise than those at company headquarters. This is primarily due to a lack of IT expertise and security resources available to remote locations. The new FW-315 has been designed to meet these needs, offering remote offices high-level security and reliable network connections. The StoneGate FW-315 device provides comprehensive protection with unified threat management (UTM) features such as Web filtering, intrusion prevention for e-mail, HTTP, and VoIP, as well as anti-spam for SMTP e-mail and anti-virus scanning for e-mail and HTTP protocols. Built-in firewall clustering, server load balancing and the possibility to utilize reserve ISP capacity on overloaded Internet connections enure continuous network services. With four interfaces, StoneGate FW-315 also enables small-scale network segmentation. Additionally, the appliance is available with an ADSL+2 interface. The StoneGate FW-315 is currently available for shipping. For more information, go to www.stonesoft.com.
